Hi, sorry for the late response.
Simply re-phrasing the policy may create another misunderstanding
about the wording, so why don't we have specific examples for the
cases that meets the criteria?
Static assignment(leased lines, CATV, xDSL)
Each static IP address assignment for its customers can be considered
as a /48 assignment.
Existing IPv4 infrastructure/customers can also be taken into
consideration.
For example, if a CATV provider has 4,000 IP static connection
customers in IPv4 and 5%(200) of them are expected to subscribe IPv6
service connection, then, it this provider meets the criteria.
This is not only restricted to the cases where they assign multiple
static IP in IPv4. Even if you assign a single static IP in IPv4,
it's upto the ISP to assgin /48 to these customers.
Dynamic Assginment service(mobile networks, dial-up, CATV, xDSL)
I'm not sure how this will be evaluated, but if possible, it would be
helpful to describe it.
I am curious to know for example, if an ISP assigns IP dynamically to
its subscribers through DHCP, but the subsriber:IP ratio is 1:1,
would they be eligible for a /48 for each subsribers?
