I'd like to delegate an IPv6 /56 subnet to HE, but I'm not sure if HE supports that since it's not aligned on a 16 bit boundary. If I delegate the /56, and then create zones for some of the included /64 subnets, would that work, or is there another way?
Thanks!
Why would a 16-bit boundary be necessary? IPv6 reverse zones have 4-bit boundaries.....
When I create a /56 zone on HE, it's treating it as a /64 because it's separating by the colons. The subnet is
x:x:x:6900::/56, but the web interface will only allow me to assign addresses that start with x:x:x:6900: and not 6901 through 69ff.
My thinking for a workaround is that a /56 delegation should automatically include all of the smaller included subnets, so I could just create the /64's on HE. I can try it, I just wanted to verify before I bother my ISP with a change request.
I think you really need to take a look at the structure of the "ip6.arpa" zone.
