an end site assignment from their LIR or ISP.The exact size of the
assignment is a local decision for the LIR or ISP to make, using a
minimum value of a /64 (when only one subnet is anticipated for the end
site) up to the normal maximum of /48, except in cases of extra large
end sites where a larger assignment can be justified. <br></p><p><br></p><p>Also it would be nice to be able to use autoconfig where possible, so a /64 is a must.

<br>
Is that where you got /64 from?<br>
