Have you read this RFC? This is pretty satisfying in making me feel more comfortable assigning out /48 and /64's. I can sleep at night now! :P http://tools.ietf.org/html//rfc3177I can't tell if you're trolling, or if you didn't get the memo from Monday. I guess I'll lean toward the latter. http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/v6ops/current/msg06820.html Jima
That's a draft, and, it doesn't really eliminate the idea that /48s are generally a good thing so much as it recognizes that there might be SOME circumstances in which they are either not necessary or insufficient. As a draft, it hasn't been through the full process and shouldn't be considered to have the same weight as an RFC. While it intends to obsolete RFC-3177, it doesn't obsolete it yet and, indeed, may never do so. Owen
