Get your own /48 and advertise to HE Tunnel via BGP. Problem solved.
Even though that sounds like an awesome idea it does not seem trivial to me to obtain your own /48.
It’s trivial in the ARIN region. Other regions are YMMV.
I thought you might have been thinking of ARIN. :)
I mean: "You can only request IPv6 assignments and Autonomous System Numbers through a Sponsoring LIR (a RIPE NCC member)" https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-management/number-resource... I would suggest trying to work through the RIPE PDWG to get that policy changed if you feel it is a hinderance to your deployment. I do know that RIPE has this (rather silly IMHO) process for keeping PI end users at arms length, but as I understand it, it’s also not very hard to find an LIR that will charge you a fee to acquire the addresses and pass them along to you.
I tend to agree, it is silly.
But you know, my knowledge on the matter is half an hour old, I might be dead wrong.
I think you’re right, but my understanding is that it is fairly trivial to comply with that requirement. I’ll be surprised if some LIRs don’t contact you as a result of this email.
It didn't happen yet, but I might try to "poke" someone when I have some time to spare. Ciao, Davide Davini
