Why though? Classless ipv4 solves a real problem, handing out /64's not
- wongarsu 3y agoIs not subnetting /64 solving a real problem? Obviously we couldn't subnet it back when we derived the last 64 bits from the MAC address. But since then everyone decided that's a bad idea, so why not use the address space?
- viraptor 3y agoIt's the other way around. Handing out /64 is the problem, but you and I can't solve it - that's the ISPs stupid decision. People will continue solving this by making smaller subnets and I believe this will become an official solution in the future, because smaller subnets solve a real (even if artificially created) problem.
