20+ practice questions focused on IPV6 — one of the most tested topics on the CCNA 200-301 v2 exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation so you learn why the right answer is correct.
Start IPV6 PracticeYou are connected to R1. Configure IPv4 and IPv6 addressing on R1's interfaces and verify reachability to R2. The current configuration has a wrong subnet mask on G0/0, missing default gateway for IPv4, and R1's IPv6 address is configured using EUI-64 while R2 uses a static IPv6 address. Fix these issues so that R1 can ping both R2's IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Explanation: The problem had three issues: (1) R1's G0/0 subnet mask was /24 (255.255.255.0) but R2's G0/0 was /30 (255.255.255.252), causing an IP subnet mismatch. (2) R1 lacked a default gateway for IPv4; the static route pointed to 192.0.2.254 which is not reachable. (3) R1's IPv6 EUI-64 configuration on G0/0 generates an interface ID from the MAC, but R2 expects a static address 2001:db8:1::2/64, so R1 must use a static IPv6 address on the same subnet. The fix: change R1's G0/0 mask to /30, add a default route via R2's G0/0 IP (192.0.2.2), and configure a static IPv6 address (e.g., 2001:db8:1::1/64) on R1's G0/0.
Which TWO statements about IPv4/IPv6 static routing are true?
Explanation: Option B is correct because the IPv6 default static route uses the destination prefix ::/0, which matches all IPv6 addresses, similar to 0.0.0.0/0 in IPv4. Option D is correct because a floating static route is configured with a higher administrative distance and only becomes active when the primary route (with a lower AD) is removed or fails. Option A is wrong: a floating static route is configured with a higher administrative distance, not lower. Option C is wrong: a directly connected route has an administrative distance of 0, which is always preferred over a static route (even with AD 1). Option E is wrong: IPv4 static routes use the 'ip route' command, while IPv6 static routes use the 'ipv6 route' command; the syntax is different.
A network engineer is troubleshooting OSPFv3 adjacency between two directly connected Cisco routers, R1 and R2, both running IOS-XE. The engineer configures OSPFv3 on both routers but notices that the adjacency does not form. The engineer runs 'show ospfv3 neighbor' on R1 and sees no neighbors. What is the most likely cause of this issue?
Explanation: Option B is correct because OSPFv3 requires explicit interface-level configuration to enable the protocol on a specific interface. The correct command is 'ospfv3 1 ipv6 area 0' (or 'ipv6 ospf 1 area 0' for the traditional OSPFv3 configuration). Without this command, the interface does not participate in OSPFv3, so no Hello packets are sent or received, preventing adjacency formation.
Which IPv6 address type is automatically created on an interface and used for link-local communication?
Explanation: IPv6 interfaces automatically generate a link-local address in FE80::/10 for local-segment functions such as neighbor discovery.
Two routers are directly connected over IPv6 and should form an OSPFv3 adjacency, but they do not. Link-local addressing is present on both interfaces. Which issue is most likely to prevent the adjacency?
Explanation: An area mismatch is a strong and direct explanation. In plain language, even though the routers can have valid IPv6 addressing and proper link-local communication on the interface, OSPFv3 still requires the two ends of the shared segment to agree on the area context for the adjacency. If one side places the interface in one area and the other side places it in another, the routers will not treat each other as valid neighbors. This is very similar in principle to OSPF for IPv4. Link-local addressing matters in OSPFv3, but the protocol still enforces key neighbor-formation checks. The correct answer is the one that focuses on a required protocol match rather than on a vague issue like hostname or cable color.

Practice all IPV6 questions1. Baseline your knowledge
Start with 10 questions to gauge your current understanding of IPV6. This tells you whether you need a concept refresher or just practice.
2. Review every explanation
For each question — right or wrong — read the full explanation. Understanding why an answer is correct is more valuable than knowing the answer itself.
3. Focus on exam traps
IPV6 questions on the 200-301 frequently use trap wording. Look for subtle differences in answers that test your precision, not just general knowledge.
4. Reach 80% consistently
Do repeated sessions until you score 80%+ three times in a row. Then move to mixed-mode practice to test cross-topic recall under realistic conditions.
The exact number varies per candidate. IPV6 is tested as part of the CCNA 200-301 v2 blueprint. Practicing with targeted IPV6 questions ensures you can handle any format or difficulty that appears.
