Big numbers
I reverted the recent change which introduced "unquadragintillion", as this seems to be 10128 rather than 2128. Also I think the previous consensus was that coming up with "xxx-illion" names that are way beyond anyone's experience is not useful. There's some discussion of this in the 2013 archive.

fe80::/10 vs. fe80::/64
In this article the link-local address prefix is given as fe80::/10. Link-local_address says fe80::/64. Who is right? --RokerHRO (talk) 12:23, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
- IANA has reserved fe80::/10 for link-local addresses (https://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv6-address-space/ipv6-address-space.xhtml) but the IPv6 implementation (RFC4291) only uses fe80::/64 out of that range. The change to Link-local_address was made by 178.250.166.134 in May 2017; the previous version went with IANA's /10 reservation. - Ttwaring (talk) 22:23, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
