This is a confusing summary.
3 bits = 1 octal number (values 0-7)
4 bits = 1

That's an odd combination. 64 is 6 bits, which has nothing to do
with an IPv6 group.
Many

Yes, IPv6 gives every site a lot of more possibilities. And in IPv6 each NIC
can have multiple IPv6 addresses, without using aliasing which is needed for
IPv4. If you want to allocate 30 IPv6 addresses to one adapter, you may do so
very easily.

Sort-of. Most NICs know enough about IPv4 multicast to at least help
Today I received an allocation of IP6 addresses for some servers. I can

I always thought, mistakenly, IP6 was 6 segments, because it was IP6.
IP4 had 4 segments. However IP6 is actually IP version 6 and it has 8
segments. The other

I don't think I ever heard IP6, but always IPv6. Counting segments might not be
as meaningful. IPv6 has twice (8)

Creating lots of dummy IP6 addresses to confuse hackers is not an ideal
solution.
scanning ports on an IP vs scanning IPs. whatever.

Thanks for pointing-out my misunderstanding.
I'll remember 2 octets are really 2 characters (IBM's bytes) = 2 digits,
4 octal numbers or 4 hexadecimal numbers.
