I want to ask if there's any reserved private IPv6 address? I know
RFC4193 has defined Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses, which is
used to replace deprecated site-local address. However, in user's
perspective, a device will need a well-known address, such as
192.168.1.1 in IPv4, for a customer to connect to without any
configuration. In RFC 4193, the address' "global ID" is generated
randomly, and the address could not be known in advance.
No, there is no such "well known" address. Are you thinking of
configuration purposes, such as a Linksys box uses - you http the
magic address and configure it?
