They don't. Instead, they suffer from it.
Remember that the address space is 2^128 (or 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 addresses)
That is one of a major design flaw of IPv6 as a result of failed attempt to have SLAAC, which resulted in so stateful and time wasting mechanism. As it is virtually impossible to remember IPv6 addresses, IPv6 operation is a lot harder than necessary. Masataka Ohta
