IPv6 Address Prefixes Reserved for Documentation
2013
[RFC3849] specified an IPv6 prefix to be used in documentation, in
order to reduce the likelihood of conflict and confusion when relating
examples of deployed systems. This prefix was reserved to be used in
examples in RFCs, books, documentation, and the like. It became widely
accepted and used. Although the IPv6 documentation prefix proved to
be very useful, a / 32 prefix is not enough to be used to document
some kinds of IPv6 deployments, such as large ISP deployments,
transition techniques, and other useful examples that require longer
prefixes. This document defines the allocation of a new global unicast
(GUA) block and a new unique local (ULA) block, to expand the range of
documentation blocks. It also updates [RFC3849].
