Should be enough for everyone.              Another good point is the subnetting for PtP links. A link between two routers       doesn't need SLAAC and a /64. All your links would fit in a /64 easily. There       are several papers discussing the usage of much longer prefixes like /128.               MvdV> - The providers can use this as an argument to just give you one         MvdV> /64.              I don't think so. There are too much devices supporting only /64 with SLAAC.       And OpenBSD isn't a widespread OS for end users.              ciao,       Markus              ---         * Origin: *** theca tabellaria *** (2:240/1661)    |
