Here I am creating IPv6 Link-Local Address with network adapter MAC address (Network adapter can be physical or virtual), MAC addresses are 6 bytes (48-bits) in length, I will convert it to 128 bit IPv6 address, Here is the formula for the same, For example I have hexadecimal mac address here 52:15:5D:26:42:09, It need to be add ff:fe in the middle, so it will become 5 2:15:5D: ff:fe:26:42:09. Note: Link-local addresses are not necessarily bound to the MAC addresses. I received one query on one of the chat group I am part of asking if there is a way to convert MAC physical address to Link-Local IPV6 address using PowerShell, Infact I had worked on the same kind project of migrating from IPv4 to IPv6 and already written it long bank.
