Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for designing and maintaining a hierarchical network address structure based on geographic administrative divisions, and belongs to the technical field of computer applications. Background technique
[0002] With the development of the Internet address system from the initial IPv4 to the IPv6 that is being perfected and promoted today, the addressing space is expanded from 32 bits to 128 bits, and the problem of insufficient IP address allocation of network equipment has been solved. The IPv6 network address system currently in use internationally has three address structures: unicast, multicast and anycast:
[0003] A unicast address is divided into two parts. The first part contains the address prefix and the second part contains the interface identifier. A unicast address is used to identify a single interface. Packets sent to this address are delivered to the identified interface. A unicast address is distinguish...
