Since none of us know exactly how much you already know about IP routing, we’ll likely either waste time providing an answer that assumes knowledge you don’t yet have, or waste time providing extraneous detail you don’t need.

I suggest googling something along the lines of “ipv6 allocation 56 64“ sans quotes.

[Edit: never mind; the HN community seems quite generous with their time today.]

The problem is that thinking for someone else doesn't "teach them to fish (learn independently)" and "be the change you seek," rather it enables co-dependency on others.

Conversely, searching for the meaning of a forward slash is not the simplest thing in the world.
