This is the global local unicast range.
2000::/3


This is the unique local unicast range.
FC00::/7


This is the link-local unicast range.
FE80::/10

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

    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---
