Hi Digamar,

Sorry for not replying earlier.

I have read the RFC reagrding the addressing in IPv6 and I understood that
Web servers , routers , load balancers, Gateways and Switches can have
either Unicast  or Multicast or Anycast address.
Any IPv6 node can have any of these types of addresses.  All nodes will
have at least one unicast address (since every interface must have a
link-local unicast address).  Other addresses are optional, and will
depend on the configuration of the network and the individual node.
However, most nodes on the global Internet will have one or more
global unicast addresses.

There is no either/or relationship between unicast, multicast and
anycast addresses.  A node may have all three, if it is configured
that way.
