DHCPv6 has supported handing out nameserver addresses for over a decade (2003) so all clients SHOULD support this. RDNSS was only defined in 2010. > So giving each customer a /48 is the way to go.

Is there anything > other than DHCP-PD that can do this auto-magically? The CPE divides the /48 up for local use and further assignment via PD from its DHCP server. If there is a CPE to old to do this you may need to do manual assignment. Your DHCP server should be able to do both static and automatic PD. Also see the homenet IETF working group. It is working on providing a standard home route that does this and source/destination based routing so that homes can have multiple PA prefixes with traffic going out the correct exit. There are OpenWrt based routers that implement this today. Business class routers may not support fetching the prefix delegation via PD but they are usually paying you more. > I support a small WISP occasionally, it's all wireless and Ethernet. > Several hundred small business customers.
