Q: Which two guidelines are used when truncating an IPv6 address? Choose the two that are relevant.
- Removing all leading ones.
- Replace groups of ones with semicolons.
- Replace groups of zeros with colons.
- Removing all leading zeros
Explanation: One option is to eliminate the leading zeros present in each group of the IPv6 address. For instance, 00AB is converted into AB. A double colon, denoted by the symbol::, may be used to replace successive groups of zeros. Because of the potential for ambiguity, this can only be done once inside an address.
