what does this ipv6 addr stand for?

This is the global local unicast range. This is the unique local unicast range. This is the link-local unicast range. But what do /3, /7, or /10 stand for?

It is CIDR notation.

192.168.0.0/24 = 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.0.255

2000::/3 = 2000:: - 3fff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff

jukem

the /# stands for the prefix length in bits

ex 2000::/3 = 3 of the first 4 bits must equal 2. 0010
every ipv6 address must start with 2---
