What this domain covers

What to know about Endpoint Compliance

IPv6 questions usually test address types (link-local, global unicast, ULA), autoconfiguration (SLAAC), Neighbor Discovery Protocol and the differences from IPv4.

IPv6 address types and their scopes (link-local, global unicast, multicast, ULA).

SLAAC vs DHCPv6 vs stateful assignment.

Neighbor Discovery Protocol replacing ARP.

IPv6 routing differences and dual-stack coexistence.

Watch out for

Common Endpoint Compliance exam traps

  • Link-local addresses are not routable beyond the local link.
  • SLAAC uses EUI-64 or random interface IDs — not a DHCP server.
  • NDP uses ICMPv6, not ARP.
  • An IPv6 prefix is /64 for most host subnets, not /24.
