HE IPv6 tunnel dividing /48 to /64's on Proxmox
I'm playing with Hurricane Electric's IPv6 tunnelbroker and am running Proxmox with a hardware node and multiple vms. Now I managed to allocate IPv6 addresses from my /64 pool to the vms. Here is how I did it:
On Hardware Node:
auto he-ipv6
iface he-ipv6 inet6 v4tunnel
address 2001:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::2
netmask 64
endpoint endpoint_ipv4
local local_ipv4
ttl 255
gateway 2001:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::1
iface vmbr0 inet6 static
address 2001:xxxx:xxxy:xxxx::1
netmask 64
gateway 2001:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::2
On VM:
iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2001:xxxx:xxxy:xxxx::2
netmask 64
gateway 2001:xxxx:xxxy:xxxx::1
I also requested a /48 for my tunnel. Now if I want to allocate a /64 to each of the vm from my /48 block, should I create a bridge on the hardware node for each /64?
Thanked by 14n0nx

Maybe I should move this question to the Proxmox community. The thing I'm unsure is that whether it is necessary to modify the host node bridges every time a new /64 is handout from the /48 block. If this is the case, it makes it less practical in production. Please forgive my terribly poor network knowledge.
