2. Comcast only appears to have a /29 and a /28 (2001:558::/29, 2601::/28). That's only 1.5M /48s, and they have about 10x that many customers. They likely can't use /48 plus semantic prefixes, because if ARIN doesn't accept semantic prefixes as using space efficiently (and word from ARIN

allocation is only topology. But do you think that's the only way subscriber, who has 16 bits, may organize their subnets. How could you rule out all other posibilities by suggesting you have one of the good ways to do things? Cheers, Sheng On 4 June 2013 11:53, Owen DeLong o
