could we think about this as, in a PPPoE access network, /64 should be
assigned to each access vlan, and /48 should be prepared to delegated to a
customer who uses router to dials in with PPPoE link and have PCs connected to
home router.
In order to make full use of v6 address, could /56 be planned for delegated
address?

I means the host part of Ipv6 address.
In Ipv4 network , we could identify each PPPoE session by IP address on BAS.
Each customer is assigned adifferent VLAN (Q-in-Q)
After introducing IPv6, we need the same ability to identify each customer. as
network prefix is assigned to PPPoE link,CPE's v6 address is composed by the
prefix and interface part. Besides self-calculating IPv6 address by CPE,
could weassign CPE special v6 address by a /128 prefix which is compose by a
/64 prefix and a interface part driving from Q-in-Qvlan numbers?

we need to identify each customer in network.
In ipv4 network, each PPPoE customer has a fixed ip address which will be
reported radius server by Framed-ip_address attributes.
In ipv6 environment, radius accouting packets also contains IP-v6-prefix
、Ip-v6-linkID (identify host part of v6 address) and Ip-v6-delegated-prefix
attributes. to my understanding , if only a PC is connected to BAS,
IP-v6-prefix + IP-v6-linkID could be used to identify PC's IPv6 address.
while if a router is connected, BAS could only get delegated prefix and PC
behind home router could not be identified?

for cutomer has a router, should we plan a /64 prefix for PPPoE link and a /48
(or /56) prefix delegeted to customers? After dials in , when a PC behind
router access 6bone website. what address(or prefix) will be seen by web site
it visits ?
