TunnelBroker now offers /48 subnets allocations
You’ve been asking for it, so here it is: /48 allocations are now
available for tunnel broker users.By default we still allocate a /64 for the tunnel’s point-to-point
address, as well as the routed /64.
Users who desire a /48 can now log in at http://tunnelbroker.net and click
the “Allocate /48″ button to receive a /48 allocation.
As usual, if you encounter any issues or problems, please do not hesitate
to email ipv6@he.net right away. Because this is a new feature the
quicker we can get email about a problem, the faster we can work on
resolving it.
It’s true! I received the email above several hours ago from he.net(tunnelbroker.net). Now tunnelbroker.net is one of the tunnel brokers who offers this big subnets for everyone who needs this much addsesses, one ipv6 subnet /48 which is 2^80 = 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 IPv6 addresses, all this for free to the wide public. However as you probably saw already above the default subnet is still /64 (which is 2^64 = 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 IPv6 addresse), in case you find /64 for small amount of IPv6 ips you can move to /48 subnet which will cost you not more than one single click :). Enjoy!
