Hi,
just a dump question for my hungry Knowledge....
Why Do You use /64 subnets for the endpoint instead of /127 ptp?
Thx,
Tom

Do you mean a dumb question?
Why Do You use /64 subnets for the endpoint instead of /127 ptp?
Because an interface is a /64. And with one single /48 per PoP we have 32k /64s for the tunnels and 32k subnets to route over them.
Why would one bother with /127s?
