The Physical Address is your 48 Bit MAC Address (note down that this is in 48 bits, it’s very important to know this for later!) You should get some mumble jumble but what you’re specifically looking for is: Type “ipconfig /all” in the command prompt: Start Menu -> Run -> Type: cmd & press enter. So lets take your MAC address, this can be obtained using the following:] With the above conversion chart at your side and a coffee in your hand, lets start! If you still have trouble understanding this, I guess the alternative option is to use wikipedia and get comfy with binary and HEX. This little howto relies heavily off HEX and binary, if your not confident with either, I suggest using the following little reference as a guide: Conversion Code – Chart So today I will be teaching you how to take your MAC address and any /64 block of IPv6 and return a unique IPv6 address from it! SLAAC is a stateless configuration, though it generates network traffic it doesn’t need a server or client configuration nor does it communicate with a centralized administrator. IPv6 allows for auto-configuration using the EUI-64 specification and SLAAC discovery.

Routers do not calculate header checksum (speedup!).

More efficient address space allocation.

Some of the features that IPv6 provide which weren’t included in IPv4 are:

Recently Crucial has been gearing up for IPv6 inclusion in our services, it’s been my task to deliver this in the best way possible.
