Hi Steve,

take a look at the following IETF Draft
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-v6ops-addcon-07.txt
It's on the way to become RFC and includes two case studies for address planing
for Enterprises and ISPs in the appendix. Hope this helps.

best wishes,
Christian

| What did you use for core infrastructure? What did you divide off for
| remote PoPs? Did you cut up your /32 into /35's and work from there? etc
| etc.

| and how 'they' did it, particular to a small ISP. (forgoing an argument
| about CPE assignment, I just want to know how people are assigning and
| delegating routing slots from the core to their edge).
|
| Before I can make a concrete decision (because the size of the space
| still intimidates me), I've been simply using 'my:32::x/64' type
| addresses for testing within a single subnet.
