1Z0-1072-26 Networking Practice Question

Which THREE statements regarding OCI IPv6 implementation in VCNs are correct?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Security lists and NSGs support rules for IPv6 traffic filtering.

OCI supports IPv6 addressing. You can assign IPv6 CIDR blocks (/56) to your VCN, assign IPv6 subnets (/64) to subnets, and configure security rules and route tables for IPv6 traffic.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Security lists and NSGs support rules for IPv6 traffic filtering.

    Why this is correct

    Security rules can be configured for IPv6 CIDRs just like IPv4.

  • Subnets within an IPv6-enabled VCN can be assigned /64 IPv6 prefixes.

    Why this is correct

    Subnets receive /64 IPv6 blocks from the VCN's IPv6 prefix.

  • IPv6 is mandatory for all new VCN creation in OCI.

    Why it's wrong here

    IPv6 is completely optional; IPv4 is the default.

  • IPv6 addresses in OCI require a NAT Gateway for outbound internet access.

    Why it's wrong here

    IPv6 uses direct routable GUA addresses; NAT is not required for IPv6 internet communication.

  • You can assign an IPv6 GUA (Globally Unique Address) prefix of /56 to your VCN.

    Why this is correct

    VCNs support assigning an Oracle-provided /56 IPv6 prefix.

Visual reference

192.168.1.0 /24 256 addresses (254 usable) 192.168.1.0 /25 Subnet A 128 addr (126 usable) 192.168.1.128 /25 Subnet B 128 addr (126 usable) Borrowing 1 bit from host portion creates 2 subnets (/25)
