* Rémi Després:
This objective has been brilliantly achieved when Free, after only 5 weeks, evolved from "we don't want to spend a Euro on IPv6" to "IPv6 is available to our customers who wish to activate it with a click".
Does this approach give the customer the ability to connect multiple devices?
Yes, and this is important. Each customer site can have as many Windows, OS X, and Linux PCs on its internal LAN. They automatically configure their IPv6 address (unless their IPv6 is not enabled), and then communicate in IPv6 with all servers that are IPv6 enabled (Google servers in particular) without users even noticing it. Having only a /64 in a residential site starts having consequences only if there is a need to install several LANs that are strictly independent (i.e. LANs that are not, like most Wifi and other Ethernet LANs, linked by layer 2 switches). Only sophisticated users would notice any limitation. Regards, RD
If not, stateless autoconfiguration is probably unnecessary, and 6RD could do without /64 subnets, freeing additional bits for internal addressing at the ISP level.
