My FEAR is that people ("customers") are going to start assuming that v6 means their own static allocation (quite a number are assuming this). This means that I have a problem with routing table size etc if I have to implement that.
Customers don't want static addresses. They want DNS that works, with their own domain names, forward and reverse. They want renumbering events to be infrequent, and announced in advance. They want the box the cable/dsl/fios provider to actually work, that is be able to do really simple stuff without having to buy another stupid box to put behind it. None of these require static, and in fact I'd think it would be easier to get it right than it would be to do statics for most providers. But, I must be wrong, since the only solution virtually every provider offers is to "move up" to "a static IP". -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell () ufp org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/
