and anyway, the average visit to facebook is still more data than the entire ipv6 route table at the moment. we might also want to speed up bgp handling by routers a bit in the future, as some are DAMN SLOW in processing a few hundred thousand sets of data... (no people, it's NOT acceptable when a 200k box takes more than a few milliseconds to process whats basically just a few megabytes of data coming in over 10ge pipes and put it into a route table in ram ;) time to put all those suppliers a pepper in their **** and simply stop buying their stuff if they keep selling obsolete junk. end-to-end PI is the way to go. -- Greetings, Sven Olaf Kamphuis, CB3ROB LLTC. ========================================================================= Address: C/O German Embassy of the Republic CyberBunker Koloniestrasse 34 D-13359 Registration: #8 CBTR GERMANIA Phone: +31/(0)87-8747479 Das Gross Deutsche Reich RIPE: CBSK1-RIPE e-Mail: sven@cb3rob.net ========================================================================= http://www.facebook.com/cb3rob ========================================================================= Confidential: Please be advised that the information contained in this email message, including all attached documents or files, is privileged and confidential and is intended only for the use of the individual or individuals addressed.

I'm well into my second decade of having a v6 prefix in the dfz and am passingly familiar with powers of two... Point is that expecting people globally to take a /48 from PA space probably isn't a realistic expectation.
Exactly.... What's more realistic is you have to get a single /48 of PI space for people to carry that globally.
And if you have 5 discontiguous networks, what the RIRs should do is carve a /44 out for your present and future PI allocations and issue you the 8 /48s; the PI /48 routing slots that you have justified need for -- arranged so that they fall within the same /45.
