Until now it was only a theoretical thought. My hope was, that somebody says 
this is ugly (splitting a /64) but it works with step one, two....

I will investigate the possibilities. But this takes a little bit longer. I 
have no experience with bridging nor IPv6-dhcp, and arp-proxy will be very 
different to ndp-tricks.

Thanks a lot for the hints so far.

We have endless addresses(privacy extensions work) but it is difficult share 
this pool.

Thomas
