Ugh, IPv6... the bane of every network admin's existence. At least it's not a trick question, though. Global unicast FTW!

Option B, global unicast. Gotta love those IPv6 addresses, they're like hieroglyphics compared to good old IPv4.

Hmm, let me think... global unicast sounds like the one that would work for a public IP address. I hope I'm right, or else I'm going to feel like a total IPv6 noob.
