"A single /64 has never been enough and it is time to grind that myth into the ground. ISP's that say a single /64 is enough are clueless." LLLLOOOOOOLLLLL A 100 gallon fuel tank is fine for most forms of transportation most people think of. For some reason we built IPv6 like a fighter jet requiring everyone have 10,000 gallon fuel tanks... for what purpose remains to be seen, if ever. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Andrews" <marka () isc org> To: "Chuck Church" <chuckchurch () gmail com> Cc: "North American Network Operators' Group" <nanog () nanog org> Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2015 6:46:13 PM Subject: Re: Nat In message <01de01d13900$fe364dd0$faa2e970$@gmail.com>, "Chuck Church" writes:

Given that 99.999% of home users would be fine with a delegation of a single /64 and a single subnet I'm tempted to do that for now and let the DHCP-PD ink dry for a while so CPE support can follow up.
I have a single CPE router and 3 /64's in use. One for each of the wireless SSID's and one for the wired network. This is the default for homenet devices. A single /64 means you have to bridge all the traffic. A single /64 has never been enough and it is time to grind that myth into the ground. ISP's that say a single /64 is enough are clueless. Mark
