That makes a lot of sense, and if they had allocated a /56 or other then I think I would have been able to figure it out and split it in multiple /64 subnets. For the record, this is in the UK with a BTnet leased line for a business. So I assumed they should know their stuff. I'll go back through their documentation and follow up with them as it's possible I missed something. EDIT: While I wait for them to get back to me, a thought occurs: is it possible there was a typo in the network mask they sent me? That it should be /48 instead of /64? The address they sent me is the first three groups which matches up with the table in the link provided by alemabrahao above. Whereas the /64 has four groups. I guess since the zeros have been ommitted it could still be a /64 mask but I found it interesting that they match up like that.
