/64 subnet?

[suny...@gmail.com]

From my understanding of IPV6, /64 is the smallest subset for a host,
the 64 bit prefix is for routing, and other 64bit is generated from
MAC address, which is global unique,

To provide a tunneling function, a host should at least have a /48
allocated to it.

That's how it usually works, but in the end, an address is just a pile of bits.

Stubl is a simple hack that works well for solving the specific
problem it was designed for. If it doesn't match your problem, feel
free to use something else.

I guess I'm not really sure if you're saying "I don't like this" or
"this seems impossible." Stubl uses a /64 allocation for the whole
network, and assigns a single address (i.e. a /128) to each client.
