> IPv6 /126
Uh, unless you're running BGP over this or getting a larger subnet statically routed to you, get a larger prefix. A /48 or /56 is the current recommendation [1] for business end site allocations.

That said, I think the original intent was that such “point-to-point Ethernets” should have been issued /64, but seems /126 is common practice.

Also another fyi: if you're rolling commodity hw (bcm tridents etc) after a /64 up to /128 you are dipping into another constrained forwarding table - can't fill your box with too many of those.
I can get a /56 even at my apartment just by setting my router to request it.
