      Hello Victor,              On Sunday January 27 2019 18:05, you wrote to me:               MV>> My ISP assigns a /56 on a home connection               VS> As a standard package?              Too early to tell. They (Ziggo) were very slow to roll out IPv6. After telling       the customers that they would be rolling out IPv6 "later this year" for the       last decade, they finally started moving in 2016. But it is still       "unofficial", they have not yet published an official policy on IPv6. It is       still a surprise if after a modem change, you will have Dual Stack, DSLite or       IPv4 only. Customers that have IPv6 report they have a /56. But nothing       "official" from the ISP...               MV>> and a /48 on a bussines pro connection.              THAT is what they offically advertise for the Bussines Pro connection.               MV>> If you need more than a /56 on a home network, you are doing        MV>> something wrong.               VS> Unfortunately I don't have native IPv6 connectivity, and HE does not        VS> offer /56s on its tunnels, only /48s so I don't have much choice.              So? Just use whatever you need from the /48 and ignore the rest. There is no       shortage of IPv6 addresses,,,               VS> I've tried several times to switch to Rostelecom who is rumored to        VS> offer IPv6 connectivity, but as soon as I start talking with their        VS> salespeople they fall into stupor and promise to call later.              Be patient. I have been pestering Ziggo for a decade before they stopped       dragging their feet on IPv6. ;-)                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)    |
