2000::/3 Global Unicast The IPv6 Unicast space encompasses the entire IPv6 address range with the exception of ff00::/8, per [RFC4291]. IANA unicast address assignments are currently limited to the IPv6 unicast address range of 2000::/3

The IPv6 address reserved for loopback use is 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001/128. This loopback address is so lengthy and can be further simplified as ::1/128.
