Right, so allocate a /23 for it.
Unless I miscalculated, 2000::/8 allows a good 4 billion (4 * 10^9) /48 assignments with a HD ratio of 0.8.
So you can afford to assign a /23 for such a DSL operator without the danger of running out of address space.
Especially since even in a scenario, where the world population is 12 billion and there are twice that many connections out there using /48, 24000 ISPs of a million customers would cover the world. That still leaves us with a ridiculous number of unused /23s. Peter B. Juul, Uni�C (PBJ255-RIPE)
