>From 2.5.4 in RFC4291:
"All Global Unicast addresses other than those that start with binary
000 have a 64-bit interface ID field (i.e., n + m = 64), formatted as
described in Section 2.5.1. Global Unicast addresses that start with
binary 000 have no such constraint on the size or structure of the
interface ID field."
This still seems to imply that you really have to have a 64bit interface
ID field in there, formatted per 2.5.1. So how does /126 fit into that?
