ccc20788c1e5fc973f36df634399c89acb70deaejerenkrantz <acronym class="acronym">BIND</acronym> version 8 in May 1997.
273e512f20f262e5e2aa8e0e83371d1929fb76adjkaluza BIND version 9 was released in September 2000 and is a
273e512f20f262e5e2aa8e0e83371d1929fb76adjkaluza major rewrite of nearly all aspects of the underlying
273e512f20f262e5e2aa8e0e83371d1929fb76adjkaluza BIND architecture.

33124689065ade0dfc8c54d8ebb734f9439cb89btrawick IPv6 addresses are 128-bit identifiers for interfaces and
33124689065ade0dfc8c54d8ebb734f9439cb89btrawick sets of interfaces which were introduced in the <acronym class="acronym">DNS</acronym> to facilitate
9b0076ddd1103e5fa9c1f9bafde4b06ce244fbaecovener scalable Internet routing. There are three types of addresses: <span class="emphasis"><em>Unicast</em></span>,
9b0076ddd1103e5fa9c1f9bafde4b06ce244fbaecovener an identifier for a single interface;
249d09d51808cb7981af99762c3b3736ca126cd5jkaluza an identifier for a set of interfaces; and <span class="emphasis"><em>Multicast</em></span>,
249d09d51808cb7981af99762c3b3736ca126cd5jkaluza an identifier for a set of interfaces. Here we describe the global
249d09d51808cb7981af99762c3b3736ca126cd5jkaluza Unicast address scheme. For more information, see RFC 3587,
249d09d51808cb7981af99762c3b3736ca126cd5jkaluza "Global Unicast Address Format."
56589be3d7a3e9343370df240010c6928cc78b39jkaluza IPv6 unicast addresses consist of a
77ca16c5676da23155311e13cee61e7eaba9fa3ejailletc <span class="emphasis"><em>global routing prefix</em></span>, a
77ca16c5676da23155311e13cee61e7eaba9fa3ejailletc <span class="emphasis"><em>subnet identifier</em></span>, and an
77ca16c5676da23155311e13cee61e7eaba9fa3ejailletc <span class="emphasis"><em>interface identifier</em></span>.
f87299dab99bc04b51a6b8cad51b6795db862c0atrawick The global routing prefix is provided by the
f87299dab99bc04b51a6b8cad51b6795db862c0atrawick upstream provider or ISP, and (roughly) corresponds to the
4d12805e6c18253040223ea637acd6b3b3c18f60jorton IPv4 <span class="emphasis"><em>network</em></span> section
4d12805e6c18253040223ea637acd6b3b3c18f60jorton of the address range.
4d12805e6c18253040223ea637acd6b3b3c18f60jorton The subnet identifier is for local subnetting, much the
4d12805e6c18253040223ea637acd6b3b3c18f60jorton same as subnetting an
e5d909f2b06bd880fb3675cd49363df981caa631trawick IPv4 /16 network into /24 subnets.
a4df2cd1e1391575a327c2a90ba4315f805a0a78covener The interface identifier is the address of an individual
a4df2cd1e1391575a327c2a90ba4315f805a0a78covener interface on a given network; in IPv6, addresses belong to
cb666b29f81df1d11d65002250153353568021fccovener interfaces rather than to machines.
6a80c3c6f4b8ea7ba5e89402b8b779b09ce020e0covener The subnetting capability of IPv6 is much more flexible than
1c2cab00d988fc48cbe59032cf76cc0bab20d6f7covener that of IPv4: subnetting can be carried out on bit boundaries,
6a80c3c6f4b8ea7ba5e89402b8b779b09ce020e0covener in much the same way as Classless InterDomain Routing
75a230a728338d84dcfe81edd375352f34de22d0covener (CIDR), and the DNS PTR representation ("nibble" format)
75a230a728338d84dcfe81edd375352f34de22d0covener makes setting up reverse zones easier.
1f50dc34ae069adeed20b2986e5ffdefa5c410e0covener The Interface Identifier must be unique on the local link,
1f50dc34ae069adeed20b2986e5ffdefa5c410e0covener and is usually generated automatically by the IPv6
63a5ea80bddcc84a462e40f402b4f330e0e05411covener implementation, although it is usually possible to
63a5ea80bddcc84a462e40f402b4f330e0e05411covener override the default setting if necessary. A typical IPv6
63a5ea80bddcc84a462e40f402b4f330e0e05411covener address might look like:
63a5ea80bddcc84a462e40f402b4f330e0e05411covener <span><strong class="command">2001:db8:201:9:a00:20ff:fe81:2b32</strong></span>
65a4e663b82f8bce28ac22ab2edfd7502de36998sf IPv6 address specifications often contain long strings
65a4e663b82f8bce28ac22ab2edfd7502de36998sf of zeros, so the architects have included a shorthand for
c7de1955eb0eaeabf7042902476397692672d549sf specifying
74e7f6c55fd67b10cb400b3f6d1dc718a303d944minfrin them. The double colon (`::') indicates the longest possible
74e7f6c55fd67b10cb400b3f6d1dc718a303d944minfrin of zeros that can fit, and can be used only once in an address.
