Good points!
Yes, they mainly serve residential customers and AFAIK the ratio isn't
regulated in Greece. About the heavy users, there is a mechanism in
place (semi-automatic) to switch a MAP-E subscriber back to dual-stack
(and vice-versa). Also, it should be noted that business customers were
not considered for MAP-E inclusion

Hi Yannis,
It all depends on your requirements and the type of customers you are
serving. A 1:64 ratio could work very well if you mainly serve
residential users. This ratio will provide each user with nearly 1,000
UDP and 1,000 TCP ports, which is sufficient for about 99% of users
(since the UDP/TCP ratio is currently around 50/50, thanks to QUIC).
The key factor is how you manage heavy users. Do they get blocked, or
are they allocated extra ports?
Additionally, some countries may have specific legal requirements
regarding acceptable ratios.

Hello,
I was (off-line) watching Richard Patterson's presentation about Sky
UK's MAP-T deployment. By the way, this is the kind of presentations
we should be seeing more of in RIPE meetings.
So anyway, I was taken aback by the IPv4 sharing ratio and I had to
do a double take. Richard mentioned that they're using 1:16 in Italy
and 1:8 in the UK. In a similar size deployment in Greece (in my
previous employer), a few years ago, we had decided on 1:64 (~1000
ports per subscriber) and I'm now wondering if it is outdated or not.
Cheers,
Yannis
