While it is true that PPP is not used here, I won't say that PPP should
be avoided. PPP is a valid and widely deployed model in DSL Broadband
environment; Broadband Forum has already published TR-187 that explains
how to deploy IPv6 with PPP.
In addition in case of bridged Layer 2 RG model, PPP + SLAAC with the
/64 announced in the RA PIO is a valid solution.
I didn't say it wasn't valid, I said it should be avoided due to high
cost. This is my opinion and I stand by it.
My problem is that people seem to think that just because IPv6 deployment
is fixed in PPP environments, now things are DONE. They are not. There are
numerous other deployment models in wide use that have not been properly
adressed yet.
