Foreword
The changes to the address architecture have introduced the need for
routing protocols that are capable of supporting IPv6. Two such routing
protocols include RIPng and OSPFv3. The characteristics and operation
of each of these protocols generally reflects those used in IPv4 however
contain some distinct differences that are required to be understood to
support the implementation of IPv6 based routing protocols within an
IPv6 founded enterprise network.

Summary
What is the port number that is used by RIPng for listening for route
advertisements?
What is used to uniquely identify each neighboring node running
OSPFv3?
