current RIPE policy, you assign each one of these DSL or cable modem customers
with a /48. Mobile phones are different and should probably get a /64 since
their internal networks will not have additional interfaces added. Of course, in
the future we will have mobile phones which can act as Internet gateways for our
car LAN and then they will get a /48.</FONT></SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
