[ixp] v6 subnet?

[Frank Habicht]

Hi all,

first, does the list work? Last email I got was August 2010 and archive 
says the same.
second question would be whether there's anyone else on the list....?

Now my question: what ipv6 subnet to use... (very popular question!)


Nearby IXP, working for 5-6 years fine.
Wants to be "ipv6 ready".
Yes, the L2 switch can surely already pass IPv6 packets.
just wondering about the addressing scheme.

I'm aware of the scheme used at UIXP in UG:
/112 for the IXP public peering LAN with peers routers numbered in
2001:x:y::2001
2001:x:y::2002
.
.

In my opinion the biggest argument for non-/64 subnet is that no-one has 
to deconfigure RA.


At "my" IXP we do a /64, and I have to admit I'm not sure whether RAs 
are happening, about 4-5 hosts have v6 turned on.
But of course they shouldn't be there.

What do others do?

Thanks,
Frank
