IPv6 Prefix Delegation mechanism for /56 prefixes

Open thias opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

The high end servers like the SCALE and HIGH GRADE are currently being assigned a /56 prefix each. This seems like a simple marketing reason, where customers will see "more" when comparing.... but makes zero sense without a proper way to split this on the routing level, which OVH still doesn't provide AFAIK. Something like DHCPv6-PD would be great, as mentioned in https://github.com/ovh/infrastructure-roadmap/issues/117#issuecomment-1410732591

We will provide routed mode within https://github.com/ovh/infrastructure-roadmap/issues/115, so it will give the flexibility of vRack together with infrastructure-agnostic IPv6 block. DHCPv6-PD will be scheduled in later iterations (static and SLAAC first).

Is this option still needed since Additional IPv6 is offered with routing subnets capabilities?
