Why would anyone need /64 if not to segment it further.

Why would anyone need /64 if not to segment it further.
- littlecranky67 3y agoWell ask the IETF, the RFCs say that sub-segmenting a /64 shouldn't be done. Yet people do, and the result is - well - here be dragons depending on the implementations.
- zamadatix 3y agoSo nobody ever again needs to think "what size end user subnet is in use". It's /64, it's always /64. It doesn't matter if you're embedding MAC addresses, using random assignment, using multiple assignments, have 1 device, have 1 trillion devices. It's a /64.
- mike_hock 3y agoOk, then why waste a /64 on that? A /96 should be enough, or even a /112.
