INTRO
The observable universe contains about 3 × 1024 stars.
IPv6 address include 2128 adresses or ~ 3,4 × 1038 IPs.
Theory
6to4 is a mechanism where a router with a public IPv4 address can be an IPv6 gateway/provider for a whole set of LANs. The IPv6 prefix starts with
2002:
followed by the 32 bits of the public IPv4 address. This gives a /48
prefix which can be used to provide 65536 LANs with a /64
each. The problem is that to reach the normal IPv6 internet the 6to4
router needs to use public 6to4 relays, and these relays are not always
reliable. Add to this that the inbound and outbound traffic use
different relays most of the time, and the reliability of 6to4 networks
leaves a lot to be desired. These days using 6to4 is strongly
discouraged.Teredo is a built-in mechanism in Windows systems that is used to give a single system behind an IPv4 NAT access to IPv6. Like 6to4 it uses public relays. Teredo combines this with a setup protocol using Teredo servers (by default those hosted by Microsoft) to detect and break through the IPv4 NAT. It is not very reliable, but Teredo is only used when explicitly connecting to an IPv6 address and not when connecting to a hostname and looking up the addresses in DNS. This happens for example when using BitTorrent, and there the lesser reliability doesn't matter a lot.
2001:0000 means it's a Teredo address, and the next XXXX:XXXX -- 4137:9e76 in the case of this Windows system ( Microsoft's Teredo server teredo.ipv6.microsoft.com dy default) -- is the encoded address of the server to talk to in order to start finding your way through the Teredo process. The address also imbeds the UDP port to use in communicating.
In order to get from point A to point B via Teredo, you need two helpers: the Teredo Server (run by Microsoft probably, with its IP address packed into your Teredo address), and the "Teredo Relay," which does most of the work. Teredo relays are typically near a destination, and so some domains might have them, some might not. You can get to Google over Teredo because Google has a Teredo relay.
ISATAP is a managed technology for providing IPv6 on an IPv4 network. It emulates IPv6 connectivity on the IPv4 infrastructure. IPv6 Router Discovery usually uses multicast. This isn't possible on an infrastructure based on IPv6-over-IPv4 tunnels, so ISATAP solves that in a different way. An ISATAP router is provided on the network and its IPv4 address is made known to the ISATAP hosts (usually using the hostname isatap. in DNS). The ISATAP hosts then can use that address to set up their IPv6 connectivity.
what ISATAP does to your intranet, whether it's currently two subnets or two hundred subnets: it makes your entire intranet one subnet.
ISATAP is not used for communications over the public Internet.
In all cases it is better to get native IPv6 on your networks. Preferably through your ISP, and otherwise through a tunnelbroker like tunnelbroker.net or sixxs.net.
How to enable/disable IPv6 or its components in Windows
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/929852
Windows implements RFC 3484 and uses a prefix table to determine which address to use when multiple addresses are available for a name.
By default, it favors IPv6 global unicast addresses over IPv4 addresses.
You can view/change the prefix policy through
By default, it favors IPv6 global unicast addresses over IPv4 addresses.
You can view/change the prefix policy through
netsh
:// Open an elevated command prompt
// Enter the IPv6 context
> netsh int ipv6
// Then use one of the following commands
show prefixpolicies
set prefixpolicy

IPv6 Addressing
An IPv6 address consists of 8 sets of 16-bit hexadecimal values separated by colons (:), totaling 128 bits in length.
For example:
2001:0db8:1234:5678:9abc:def0:1234:5678Leading zeros can be omitted, and consecutive zeros in contiguous blocks can be represented by a double colon (::).
Double colons can appear only once in the address. For example:
2001:0db8:0000:130F:0000:0000:087C:140B can be abbreviated asAs with the IPv4 Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) network prefix representation (such as 10.1.1.0/24), an IPv6 address network prefix is represented the same way:
2001:0db8:0:130F::87C:140B

Scope - a group of computers set for communication isolation.
Unicast = one-to-one:
- global = The scope is global (IPv6 Internet addresses)
- link-local = The scope is the local link (nodes on the same subnet)
- site-local = The scope is the organization (private site addressing).
- IPv4-compatible
Multicast address = one-to-many
- Address of a set of interfaces
- Delivery to all interfaces in the set
Anycast = one-to-nearest
- Unicast Address of a set of interfaces
Subnet router anycast address : subnet prefix::/n
- Delivery to a single interface in the set
Reserved
No more broadcast address (replaced with multicast)

IPv6 Configuration Types
IPv6 addresses may be assigned in several different ways:
1) manually configured
2) auto-configured from a 48-bit MAC address (e.g.,Ethernet address), expanded into a 64-bit EUI-64
3) assigned via DHCPv6
4) auto-generated pseudo-random number (to counter some privacy concerns)
5) possibly other methods in the future
IPv6 unicast addresses generally use 64 bits for the Network ID and 64 bits for the Host ID
2001:0db8:0000:130F :0000:0000:087C:140BThe Network ID is administratively assigned,and the host ID can be configured manually or auto-configured by any of the following methods:
Network ID Host ID
64 bits 64 bits
- Using a randomly generated number
- Using DHCPv6
- Using the Extended Unique Identifier (EUI-64) format. This format expands the device interface
48-bit MAC address to 64 bits by inserting FFFE into the middle 16 bits (see Figure 2-2). Cisco
commonly uses the EUI-64 host ID format for Cisco IP Phones, gateways, routers, and so forth.
MAC Address: 00:04:E2:00:D0:17
IPv6 Address: fe80:0000:0000:0000:0204:e2ff:fe00:d017
fe80::204:e2ff:fe00:d017
Global IPv6
1) The global routing prefix is assigned to a service provider by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
(IANA).
2) The site level aggregator (SLA), or subnet ID, is assigned to a customer by their service provider.
3) The LAN ID represents individual networks within the customer site and is administered by the customer.
4) The Host or Interface ID has the same meaning for all unicast addresses. It is 64 bits long and is typically
created by using the EUI-64 format.
Example of a global unicast address:
2001:0DB8:BBBB:CCCC:0987:65FF:FE01:2345
