Hi all,

I will like to know, from those deploying IPv6 services to residential
customers, if you are planning to provide static or dynamic IPv6 prefixes.

Just to be clear, I'm for static prefix delegation to residential
customers, however I heard that some ISPs are doing dynamic delegations,
the same way as is common today with IPv4.

I don't thin it make sense, as the main reason for doing so in IPv4 was
address exhaustion and legacy oversubscription models such as PPP/dial-up.


In mobile, v6 addresses will be dynamic with no persistence across link
state changes.
