If only there was a best practices doc to help here...  Oh wait there is!

It doesn't specifically mention BGP so as to be protocol agnostic but
does recommend allocating a /64 and using a /126 or /127.

Is it best practice to have the internet facing BGP router's peering ip (or for that matter any key gateway or 
security appliance) use a statically configured address or use EUI-64 auto config?

I have seen comments on both sides and am leaning to EUI-64 (except for the VIP's like the ASA's failover ip )
