To reduce the likelihood of conflict and confusion when relating
documented examples to deployed systems, an IPv6 unicast address
prefix is reserved for use in examples in RFCs, books, documentation,
and the like. Since site-local and link-local unicast addresses have
special meaning in IPv6, these addresses cannot be used in many
example situations. The document describes the use of the IPv6
address prefix 2001:DB8::/32 as a reserved prefix for use in
documentation.
