How many sites do you have? If less than 192, /44 is
perfect, unless some of those sites require more than
a /48. Then, it gets more complicated :-)

We're having a general math breakdown today. First Jeroen wants to fit
5 /48's in a /47 and now you want to fit 192 /48's in a /44.

48-44=4. 2^4=16.
