Wait, isn't the last address in a block always the one before the broadcast address? In that case, the answer would be C) 2001:db8::ffff:ffff:ffff:fffe.

Haha, this reminds me of that classic joke about the IPv6 address that was so long, the guy couldn't remember it. But I digress, I think the answer is C) 2001:db8::ffff:ffff:ffff:fffe.

Okay, let me think this through. The 2001:db8:: block is a /32 prefix, so the last address would use the entire 64-bit host portion. That means it should be D) 2001:db8::ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff.

Hmm, I'm pretty sure the last address in the block would be 2001:db8::ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff. Let's see if that matches the correct answer.

I see your point, but I still think D) 2001:db8: :ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff is the correct answer because it represents the last address in the block.
