Hi Cameron,

What about routers ? In some locations, users may have only the choice of
cellular broadband instead of DSL, cable or fiber.


From an architectural perspective, mobile broadband routers are
treated the same and can expect only ephemeral address assignments.
This is the general case for generic mobile devices accessing the
internet, there can be specific arrangements for specific industrial
use cases (this traffic signal/ gas meter/ windmill always gets this
address).

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.
