LLLLOOOOOOLLLLL A 100 gallon fuel tank is fine for most forms of transportation most people think of. For some reason we built IPv6 like a fighter jet requiring everyone have 10,000 gallon fuel tanks... for what purpose remains to be seen, if ever. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Andrews" <ma...@isc.org> To: "Chuck Church" <chuckchu...@gmail.com> Cc: "North American Network Operators' Group" <nanog@nanog.org> Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2015 6:46:13 PM Subject: Re: Nat In message <01de01d13900$fe364dd0$faa2e970$@gmail.com>, "Chuck Church" writes: > -----Original Message----- > From: NANOG [mailto:nanog-boun...@nanog.org] On Behalf Of Matthew Petach > Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2015 1:59 PM > Cc: North American Network Operators' Group <nanog@nanog.org> > Subject: Re: Nat > > >I'm still waiting for the IETF to come around to allowing feature > >parity between IPv4 and IPv6 when it comes to DHCP. > > And that recent thread on prefix delegation doesn't really leave a good > taste in one's mouth about how to delegate a /56 or a /48 to a CPE, and > get that/those prefix(s) in your (ISP) routing tables.

I have a single CPE router and 3 /64's in use. One for each of the wireless SSID's and one for the wired network. This is the default for homenet devices. A single /64 means you have to bridge all the traffic. A single /64 has never been enough and it is time to grind that myth into the ground. ISP's that say a single /64 is enough are clueless.
