Title: Forwarding Issues

Greetings,

I would very much appreciate your kind help regarding Forwarding issues:

RFC 2374: "IPv6 Global Unicast Address Format", states the following:

   "IPv6 unicast addresses are designed assuming that the Internet
   routing system makes forwarding decisions based on a "longest prefix
   match" algorithm on arbitrary bit boundaries ..."

1) Does this mean that Forwarding in IPv6 is performed in the exact same way that it is done in IPv4?

2) If not, How is it done?

3) Where can i find information about IPv6 Forwarding?


Kind regards,
Hirsch Doron.
