RADIUS.
When your session comes up you get, in our trial (http://ipv6.internode.on.=
net) a /64 assigned to your PPP interface.
You can choose to send an RA and assigned your router an IP in this or not.
Otherwise your router sends a DHCPv6 PD request to our BRAS. Our BRAS know=
s who you are and does a radius request. Our RADIUS server sends back eith=
er a pool name or a static /60 (for the trial) which then gets routed to yo=
ur interface. You then assign internally as required.
