Although still possible, the large addressing space of IPv6 obviates the need to conserve addresses and every device can be given a unique globally routable address. Source: Internet
However, since the router identifier is not an IP address, it does not have to be a part of any routable subnet in the network, and often isn't to avoid confusion. Source: Internet
HTTP proxy servers at private network boundaries can facilitate communication for clients without a globally routable address, by relaying messages with external servers. Source: Internet
In this case, a DHCP client that has not yet acquired an IP address cannot communicate directly with the DHCP server using IP routing, because it does not have a routable IP address, nor does it know the IP address of a router. Source: Internet
These addresses are not routable and like private addresses cannot be the source or destination of packets traversing the Internet. Source: Internet
These ranges are not routable outside of private networks, and private machines cannot directly communicate with public networks. Source: Internet
