I thought multicast was more common, but A makes sense!

B is wrong, loopback uses 127.0.0.1, not FE80.

Wait, isn't FE80 just for local communication?

Definitely A, it's for link local addresses.

I thought loopback addresses were something else, so I’m leaning towards A being the correct answer, but I need to double-check.

I’m pretty confident that FE80::/10 is used for link-local addresses. I just can’t recall the exact details.

I remember practicing a question about IPv6 prefixes, and I feel like this one was about multicast, but that doesn't seem right now.

I think FE80::/10 is related to link-local addresses, but I'm not completely sure.

I'm a little confused by the wording of this question. Is it asking about the purpose of that prefix range, or just which statement is correct? I'll have to read it over again to make sure I understand what they're looking for.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. The FE80::/10 prefix is definitely used for link-local addresses in IPv6. That's an important detail to know for this exam.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know IPv6 has different address types, but I can't remember if link-local is one of them or not. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure this is about IPv6 addressing, so the FE80::/10 prefix must be for link-local addresses. That's the most common use of that prefix range.
