Leading zeros in IPv6 are optional do that 05C7 equals 5C7 and 0000 equals 0 -> D is not correct.

The correct answers to this question are B and C.

A. This statement is false. There are three types of IPv6 addresses: unicast, multicast, and anycast. Broadcast addresses are not used in IPv6, as multicast addresses serve the same purpose.

B. This statement is true. In IPv6, a single interface may be assigned multiple IPv6 addresses of any type, including multiple unicast, multicast, and anycast addresses.

C. This statement is true. Every IPv6 interface contains at least one loopback address, which is represented by the address "::1". Loopback addresses are used to test network connectivity on the local host.

D. This statement is false. The first 64 bits of an IPv6 address represent the network prefix, which is assigned statically and identifies the network to which the address belongs. The remaining 64 bits represent the interface ID, which may be either statically or dynamically assigned.

E. This statement is false. Leading zeros in an IPv6 16 bit hexadecimal field are optional and may be omitted for brevity. For example, the address "2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001" may be written as "2001:db8::1".
