My ISP provides DHCPV6-PD up to /56 and I am looking to rebuild my home network with multiple VLANS. Currently it's a single flat layer 2 domain and I have functional v6 connectivity to those devices, I would like to maintain that after segregating the network.
I've worked with v4 networks for a few decades and have my vlan, routing, and ip allocation plan worked out for the v4 side of things. DHCP will vary depending on the VLAN, most will be handled by the switches.
The devices I will be using are Aruba 2500, 3500 and Brocade ICX-6450s none of which properly support IPV6 address distribution themselves.
If I get a /56 I wanted to split that into a /58 for internal zoning (e.g. 1 for home lab, 1 for home use, 2 reserved for future) and from those /58s have a way to distribute the /64s to clients in their respective vlans. The /58 segmentation is so that in the future I have a potential environment to experiment with dynamic v6 routing protocols since SDN is one of the things I want to homelab.
Since I can't use the switches to provide DHCPv6 to my clients and I will need to be able to delegate different subnets to different DHCP servers, how in the world do you accomplish this in the world of V6 when your prefix delegation comes from your ISP, is subject to change periodically and you don't want your firewall handling all your DHCP and Routing?
