Re: Support for IPv6 127-bit subnet mask on point-to-point networks
[In reply to]

Hello,
This is indeed bad news as I am starting IPv6 deployment on our new

I am not sure a /126 would be a better solution regarding the potential

Maybe someone at Brocade is reading this thread and could give us a
feedback on this ? Greg ?!?
Thanks.
