CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 350

A network technician is implementing a new IPv6 addressing scheme at a local office. This is a large office, and the network manager would like a solution that saves time and allows for automatic addressing of nodes. Which of the following would BEST accomplish this?

Answer options

• A. APIPA
• B. 6to4 tunnel
• C. NAT64
• D. EUI-64

Correct answer: A

Explanation

APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) allows devices to self-assign an IPv6 address when no DHCP server is available, making it a suitable choice for automatic addressing. The other options, such as 6to4 tunnel and NAT64, are primarily focused on transitioning between IPv4 and IPv6 or translating addresses, rather than providing automatic addressing directly.
