Special-Purpose Address Block: Discard-Only Address Block
- Public routing
- not expected to be globally reachable
- IP Prefix (CIDR)
- 100:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/64
- Address Count
- 1.8447 x 10^19
This block is reserved for discard-only routing. Operators can route traffic to it when they intentionally want packets to be dropped.
This block is not expected to be globally reachable as a service destination.
A system administrator may encounter it in blackhole routes, filter tests, or traffic-engineering examples where the goal is controlled discard behavior.
Firewall tip: traffic to or from this block should normally be treated as discard, test, or route-filtering context rather than user traffic.
