The standard being used when a host's IPv6 address contains the network adapter's MAC address within the last 64 bits of the IPv6 address is EUI-64 (Extended Unique Identifier-64). This standard creates a 64-bit interface identifier by inserting the hexadecimal number FFFE between the manufacturer-assigned portion and the EUI-48 MAC address, and then invert bit 7 (Universal/Local bit) of the EUI-48 MAC address. This results in a unique 64-bit identifier that can be used in the creation of an IPv6 address.
