Hi,
Our head office in US has a /32 IPv6 address and 4 byte ASN. Our branch office is in Asia.
Can we slice a /48 for the Asia office? Would it create a problem due to different regions?
Also can we get a separate ASN for Asia branch office?
What would be the best approach?

Thanks Jose! In some cases I have seen address leaking is permitted in IPv4, but I am not sure if this would be completely unacceptable for IPv6.
Can you also tell me whether the IPv4 ASN work for IPv6 or it requires a new ASN?

Hi Jose,
It is certainly possible to get IPv6 address allocation from ARIN and to advertise the whole block and/or a more specific prefix in other geographical areas. Cisco is a good example of that. We own a /32 and we advertise it in different locations (Europe, ASIAPAC, NA, etc).
