Exam 400-101 Question id=1051 Layer 3 Technologies

Which device or devices receive packets destined for FF02::5?

A. all IPv6capable nodes on the segment
B. all IPv6capable routers on the segment
C. the single device that is configured with the address FF02::5
D. all RIPv6 routers
E. all OSPFv3 routers
F. all EIGRPv6 routers
G. all DRs and BDRs

All Open Shortest Path First version 3 (OSPFv3) routers receive packets destined for FF02::5, which is similar to the OSPFv2 allrouters multicast address 224.0.0.5.

OSPFv3designated routers (DRs) and backup designated routers (BDRs) receive packets destined for FF02::6, which is similar to the OSPFv2 allDR/BDR multicast address 224.0.0.6. These multicast addresses are used to exchange hello messages and linkstate advertisements (LSAs) among OSPF routers.

The IPv6 address FF02::5 is a multicast address, which is used for onetomany communication. IPv6 multicast addresses begin with the hexadecimal characters FF. Individual devices cannot be configured with a particular multicast address. Therefore, packets destined for FF02::5 will not be received by a single device configured with that address.

Al Routing Information Protocol version 6 (RIPv6) routers receive packets destined for FF02::9, which is similar to the RIPv2 allrouters multicast address 224.0.0.9. This addressis used to exchange hello packets and routing updates among RIP routers.

Al Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol version 6 (EIGRPv6) routers receivepackets destined for FF02::A, which is similar to the EIGRP IPv4 allrouters address 224.0.0.10. This address is used to exchange hello packets and routing updates among EIGRP routers.

Al IPv6 nodes on a segment receive packets destined for FF02::1, which is similar to the IPv4 allhosts multicast address 224.0.0.1. Traffic sent to FF02::1 is received by all hostson the local segment. IPv6 nodes automatically join the FF02::1 multicast group at startup.

Al IPv6 routers on a segment receive packets destined for FF02::2, which is similar to the IPv4 allrouters multicast address 224.0.0.2. Traffic sent to FF02::1 is received by allrouters on the local segment. IPv6 routers automatically join the FF02::2 multicast group at startup.
