Hello! As the first IPv6 deployments for end-users are in the planning stage in Germany, I realized I have not found any BCP for handling addressing in those scenarios. IPv6 will make it a lot easier for static address deployments but I wonder weather this is in the best sense for the customers. As I normally come from the technical side I prefer static addressing. But in the world of facebook and co. I wonder if it would be a better to let the user have the choice. A major provider of dsl here in Germany recently blogged about this [1]. Their proposal is to serve two subnets, one being a static one while the other one will be dynamically allocated. I have no clue how the user would switch between these subnets (without using some kind of command line tools). This is not about using privacy extensions as the subnet is sufficient for identification. Did you reach any conclusion on this matter? Thanks, Hannes [1] http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=1&eotf=1&u=http://blog.1und1.de/2010/05/07/ipv6-totale-ueberwachung/&sl=de&tl=en
