In Oz it costs real money to get IPv6 address space from the RIR (APNIC). Around AUD$6K in the first year, around AUD$1100 each year thereafter. Your /48, according to the ARIN website, cost you US$625 this year, will cost US$937.50 next year, and $1250 every year thereafter.

Using multiple ISPs is still something that is a bit tricky. A lot of people have gotten used to the Dual-WAN Firewall appliance boxes that accept connections from two ISPs and handle the failover, depending on NAT to maintain the functionality of the Internal network. Larger organizations

They *will* fight you, and tell you to your face that if you want to take NAT away from them it will be from their cold dead hands. And it isn't NAT in and of itself that is attractive. Those people aren't talking about static NAT where you are just translating the network prefix. They

I keep hearing this and it never makes sense to me. If your provider will assign you a static /48, then, you have stable addresses when your provider link is down in GUA. Who needs ULA? You used the word if. Reverse the sense of the if and see if it still doesn't makes sense to use ULA

Or just have the CPE generate a ULA prefix correctly and write it to NVRAM so you don't need to re-generate it. The internal prefix / addresses *WILL* leak. We know this from our experiences with RFC 1918 addresses. Any CPE vendor that fails to generate random ULA prefixes should be
