yes! by ALL means, hand out /48s. There is huge benefit to announcing = all that dark space, esp. when virtually no one practices BCP-38, esp in IPv6 land. /bill PO Box 12317 Marina del Rey, CA 90295 310.322.8102
and if everyone hands out /48's you just filter /48's. With a mix of /56 and /48 you need to filter at the /56 level. Given enterpises are getting /48's it will be simpler overall for everyone to get /48's.

Stop constraining your customers because you feel that it is a waste. It is not a waste!!!! It will also reduce the number of exceptions you need to process and make over all administration easier. =20 As for only two subnets, I expect lots of equipment to request prefixes in the future not just traditional routers. It will have descrete internal components which communicate using IPv6 and those components need to talk to each other and the world. In a IPv4 world they would be NAT'd. In a IPv6 world the router requests a prefix. =20 Mark =20 In message <495D0934DA46854A9CA758393724D5906DA244 () NI-MAIL02 nii ads>, =Erik Sundberg writes:I am planning out our IPv6 deployment right now and I am trying to =figure o=3Dut our default allocation for customer LAN blocks.
