I'm about ready to make a request to ARIN for a block of IPv6 addresses and I'm not sure what size block I should request.
I know that a /32 is about the size recommended for an ISP (which I think a University is) but I sure would like to see what other universities are planning for.
I've got an IPv4 "B" block now and with about 5000 students it gives me lots of good options without having to compromise any addressing plans.
The /32 would get me 79 septillion IP addresses...seems like enough ;-)... but what's the going reservation size you have or are contemplating?
