But it's much too early for that. I still fully agree with this. To this day, I run into people who want to via DHCPv6 assign a single address to each host. They do not care that this host might be running docker containers, VMs or whatever, that might benefit from having a GUA. To them it's "obvious" way to do, because that's how it's "always" been done. They've already completed the race to the bottom, and indeed that's a /128. We see all this /64 deployment because ISPs are saying "why more, there is just a single LAN?" and then /64 PD is the natural result of that thought process. This is the *only* thing stopping them from assigning smaller subnets. I'm sure there are plenty who started out with /120 and then discovered that didn't work, did some research and discovered "oh, I need /64" and then that was that. I do agree we should try to solve this problem so that my machine can get for instance a /112 assigned to it in one go, basically "prefix registration" so the upstream router can assign a large subnet to a host and install a route for that. Still, that doesn't solve the nested doll problem with router->router->router->machine->VM->docker etc that we want to support. I don't know how to solve this, but letting go of the /64 limit makes me very Fearful, Uncertain and Doubtful about the future. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
