I never really understood that. IPv6 has 128 bit addresses, so even at /96 every single customer will have as many addresses as the entire IPv4 space. Why is /64 considered "tight-assed"?
- welterde 11y agoRight now SLAAC (Stateless address autoconfiguration) needs at least a /64 to work properly, thus only giving the customer a /64 means they can't run autoconfig on more than one broadcast segment.
