Correct.<div><br></div><div>A /22 of IPv4 is equal to a /32 IPv6. So you get up to a /32 of v6 for no extra fee.</div><div><br></div><div>BUT... If you are a business, expect only a /48... If you are a Service Provider, you can probably justify a /32.</div>
<div><br></div><div>but seriously... a /48 is a TONNE for a business. The only reason you'd want more is if you have multiple networks in geographic disparate locations with different upstreams.</div><div><br></div>
<div>If you have a reason you could get hundreds of /48's and still not exceed the costs equivalent of a /22 in IPv4 considering there are 65536 /48's in a /32, and 65536 /64's in a /48.</div><div><br></div><div>
So, an ISP with a /32, literally has 4.2billion /64's for its customers (if you do /64 per end user). That is currently the equivalent of the entire v4 space. If you use a /56 per end user, that is 16.7 million of them.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I've seen a lot of comments about APNIC mis-managing address space allocation... but in the IPv6 world... that is going to be REAL hard to do.</div><div><br></div><div>The lesson here is... the sooner you move to IPv6, the far far less problems you are going to have.</div>

There is probably a more specific way to request a v6 block, but the<br>
helpdesk will point you in the right direction. It's what they get paid<br>
to do. :-)<br>
<br>
At my work, we have a /21 of IPv4 allocated to us. Because a /21 of IPv4<br>
costs more than a /32 of IPv6, we don't pay anything extra for our IPv6<br>
space.<br>
<br>
Thus made it very easy to justify playing with IPv6 to the boss. :-)<br>
