No clue about this new product, but their previous virtual server offering had NATed IPv4 and they generally have an idiotic IPv6 policy (only small prefixes, you have to pay extra to get anything remotely sensible--like, default /64 even on dedicated servers, you can get a /56 if you pay for it, more isn't supported).
- Tepix 9y agoCould you explain why a /64 is too small for you? I'm really curious.
- zAy0LfpBZLC8mAC 9y agoBecause that is the size of a single subnet, so you cannot do any useful network design with that. Also, mind you that they have a /29 assigned from RIPE, so they would have sufficient space for 134,217,728 /56s or 524.288 /48s. They choose to leave all that address space unused for nothing, forcing their customers to work around a completely artificial scarcity of address space. Exactly the opposite of why they got a /29 from RIPE (and they could easily get more if they did actually manage to use it up).
