/56 is a choice currently used by the registries. That doesn't invalidate using /48, if you consider that to be a more interesting allocation unit to consider. So I don't see a problem with "(e.g. on a basis of /48)". Brian On 2008-09-29 09:55, Turchanyi Geza wrote: > Colleagues, > > Ooops,

Colleagues, On reviewing the sections of the document pertaining to prefix lengths longer to 64 bits, I found the following issue: Section 3.1 of draft-ietf-v6ops-addcon-10 states: " Note that RFC3177 strongly prescribes 64 bit subnets for general usage, and that stateless autoconfiguration opti

nit on the nit... HD is calculated for prefixes (e.g. on a basis of /48), instead of *being* based on endpoint addresses as IPv4 is. (the second part needed a verb) On Sep 25, 2008, at 12:51 PM, Tony Hain wrote: Wording nit in 2.4.2 Current: HD is calculated for sites (e.g. on a basis of /

And we're still persisting with a recommendation for /126 for p2p router links and against /127? I guess that's the current state of things. bias disclosure: I'm in favour of /127, vis. http://www.apnic.net/meetings/26/program/apops/matsuzaki-ipv6-p2p.pdf In light of Maz's presentation (see link
