Understanding NAT, APIPA, and IPv6
- NAT Overload, or PAT, allows multiple private IP addresses to share one public IP address on the Internet
- NAT router acts on behalf of private IP addresses using a public IP address for Internet requests
- Use of private addresses through NAT does not guarantee protection against hacking, necessitating additional security measures
- APIPA automatically configures IP-based hosts unable to reach a DHCP server, using the 169.254.0.0–169.254.255.255 range
- APIPA is also known as zero configuration networking or address autoconfiguration
- APIPA eliminates the need for manual TCP/IP network configuration
- Troubleshooting steps for resolving connectivity issues related to APIPA involve verifying physical connections and advanced troubleshooting if necessary
- IPv4, developed in 1973, faces issues of address exhaustion and complex configuration
- IPv4 has 32-bit addressing space, allowing for nearly 4.3 billion addresses, but only about 250 million are usable
- IPv6, with 128-bit addresses, provides for 3.4 × 10^38 addresses, ensuring global address availability
- IPv6 offers automatic configuration and enhanced flexibility, making it backward compatible with IPv4
- Understanding IPv6 addressing involves noting the longer address space and use of hexadecimal notation
