Answer:
represent IPv6 network address.
Explanation:
Hexadecimal number is the representation of large data into small chunk. each number in hexadecimal is replaced by 4 bits of data. With the help of this number system we can reduce the size of the total data.
IPv6 address consist of hexadecimal number. If we represent this address in binary it will utilize 16 x 8 = 128 bits. 128 bit address is too long.
So, we convert the 18 bits data into hexadecimal. This conversion make this address smaller. To represent the IPv6 address, we usually use hexadecimal number representation.
