I don't see any issue with DSL operators. Can you explain it ?
With HD ratio of 80%, the operator would require a /23.
and ? There is enough adress space for that. DSL lines will be used for home networks, and home networks are one of the reasons for the /48. If an ISP has 1 million custommers, you give it enough adress space for static allocation (DSL is *not really* dial up) The /23 seems to be *big* but it's smaller than a /8 in IPv4
I agree on this. I think it is a GOOD thing to have static IPs on DSL, and a /48 might be overkill for most households, it is valuable to those that do more interesting things with their network.
