Hello,

In fact, if you need a /64 IPv6 range you probably use the wrong service. For 
VPS and Public Cloud instances (PCI) the IPv6 range is shared with all the VM, 
so each VM (VPS or PCI) have one single IPv4 (/32) and one single IPv6 (/128).

Only baremetal have a dedicated /64 IPv6 range. The support team could help you 
to find a server corresponding to your needs.



Of course such a "feature" can be used as a selling point for more expensive service options. It is still irresponsible to fence ordinary users together with spammers into a single /64 (and given the "success" of keeping spammers out, every /64 managed by OVH will have a number of spammers at any point in time). If unrelated users share a /64, you should disable outgoing access to port 25 (and probably some other ports) completely and advertise this service as "not suitable for e-mail operation"; that would also reduce the spam load on other networks a bit.

There are enough /64s available that you can give each customer her own.

Cheers,
Hans-Martin
