Intelletrace now provisions all circuits as Dual Stack IPv4 & IPv6.  In preparation for World IPv6 day on June 8th, 2011 the Intelletrace web site is now accessible using IPv6.  All internet connections using Intelletrace will receive a /48 IPv6 Network Block.

It is recommended to not use less than a /64 on any subnet using IPv6.  With the Intelletrace allocation this is 65536 /64 subnets in a /48.

Just to give you an idea of what we’re talking about here, a /64 network has 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 (18 quintillion) unique IPs.  A /48 network has 65,536 times as many. For those obsessed with how large this number is, work it out and be amazed (it’s on the order of 1.2*10^24).
