Which method converts a 48-bit MAC address into a 64-bit IPv6 interface identifier by inserting a fixed value in the middle and inverting a specific bit?
Randomized Interface Identifier
Modified EUI-64
DHCPv6
IPv6 Tunneling
The Modified EUI-64 method converts a 48-bit MAC address into a 64-bit IPv6 interface identifier by inserting 'FFFE' in the middle of the MAC address and inverting the seventh bit (the Universal/Local bit). This process expands the MAC address to the required 64 bits for IPv6 addressing.
DHCPv6 is used for stateful IPv6 address assignment and does not involve modifying the MAC address to create an interface identifier.
Randomized Interface Identifiers enhance privacy by generating random interface IDs, but they do not derive them from the MAC address.
IPv6 Tunneling involves encapsulating IPv6 packets within IPv4 packets for transmission over IPv4 networks and is unrelated to interface identifier generation.
