>simplified network management
I keep hearing this, but it doesn’t seem more simple to me. My ISP won’t reserve me a /48, so I can’t control the management ips of devices on my network. The solution is apparently to set up dynamic dns, which I have no interest in doing.
- screamingninja 4y agoJust split that /64 into smaller /80 subnets. If I were your ISP, I would be upset too. The apparent issue here is that you're falling back to what's familiar- static IP addressing. How about mDNS?
- jlokier 4y agoYou can't use a smaller subnet than /64 for devices that use SLAAC for address allocation. (Unless you're putting them behind an IPv6 NAT, so thry can have their oen private /64).

- everdrive 4y agoI guess what I meant is that my ISP won’t hand out a stable IPv6 allocation. Ie, my entire address range changes weekly.
