E.g.              On my router I show a /128 address on the WAN interface and a /64 address on       the LAN interface. I've played around a bit with this and I can request a /56       from my ISP and split that up into multiple /64's on subinterfaces.               VS> Do you see the WAN address of the router in the `traceroute -6` output?              I see the ::1/64 address from the LAN interface:              >tracert -6 dns.google              Tracing route to dns.google [2001:4860:4860::8888]       over a maximum of 30 hops:               1 1 ms 1 ms 2 ms 2607:fea8:ab00:e1c::1        2 14 ms 18 ms 13 ms 2607:f798:804:2eb::1        3 14 ms 12 ms 13 ms 2607:f798:10:e420:0:241:5615:1161        4 15 ms 13 ms 17 ms 2607:f798:10:3b2:0:2091:4823:7093        5 56 ms 22 ms 22 ms 2607:f798:10:35c:0:2091:4823:5222        6 28 ms 17 ms 12 ms 2607:f798:14:83::2        7 16 ms 28 ms 16 ms 2001:4860:0:17::1        8 20 ms 21 ms 16 ms 2001:4860:0:1::5b67        9 17 ms 73 ms 17 ms dns.google [2001:4860:4860::8888]              The current /128 address on my WAN interface is 2607:f798:804:2e       :19b0:e74b:fc6:d707/128 so it looks like hop 2 is the ::1 address from that       prefix.                     Jay              ... I'd love to help you out.
