In my limited experience with ipv6, this has been the case. The
provider has you on a /64 of their own (not part of your /48), so your
WAN interface would have one of their IP's on it, and they should tell
you exactly what it should be. Just as it's done in IPv4. Your own
personal /48 is then routed through that IP. You can assign more IP's
from your /48 to your WAN interface, of course, by dedicating a /64 to
it. But you will always need to have at least the one ISP IP on it.
