Or the host could be connected to a bridge, and assigned a /128 using DHCPv6 IA_NA (RFC 3315). As an ISP: I would *prefer* to require each customer to have a router, and assign a /56 using DHCPv6 IA_PD. However, the reality is that many customers today are using a PC behind a bridge, and such customers would then be assigned a /128.
