I can see use for maybe about 4, not sure about more, but if I recall correctly the privacy extensions require a /48 don't they?

- agwa 13y agoNo, the privacy extensions simply use a random interface ID instead of deriving it from the MAC address. You still use a single /64 subnet as usual. (Unless there is an aspect of the privacy extensions I'm not familiar with, but this is what people usually mean when they say "privacy extensions.")
- zaphoyd 13y agoAs far as I know the privacy extensions only cycle through the host portion of the address (lower 64 bits) so they should work fine with just a /64. Access to a bigger prefix may help you get around systems that do IP banning in /64 chunks though.
