      In France, OVH is not see like cheap provider, it's the leader !

      Then they should have competent support. Ask them how they'd configure a Cisco router.

      I can understand an ISP providing a single /64 and expecting you to use it. At least that will work properly. Anything else, such as a /56 must be routed. There is no other way for it to work properly.

      I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

        I just want to say, that it's a little hard for me to trust a free service. I just hope than Hurricane Electric don't spy what go trough the tunnel. But it's a great service !

          You could say the same freaking thing about your ISP ;) Or any VPN service you actually pay for ;) Or any router on the internet that your traffic routes through, etc.. For that matter.

          You understand they are like the top ipv6 backbone on the planet right?? They run a freaking HUGE network.. This is not your fly by night service providing you free vpn ;)

          Can pretty much promise you if your running ipv6 traffic, at some point its going to cross thier routers.. Be it you tunnel to them or not ;)

            Just some European security guy paranoia matters about US services ;)

            I already satisfy by my fresh /48 ;)

            I let you inform about OVH response.

              Ask them how SLAAC is supposed to work with a /56. You may be able to get a single /64 to work, but the other 255 will be unusable.
