It would work just fine. The tables would be a bit less trivial, but to map 6 prefixes of maximum length /10 into 24 bits worth of IPv6 prefixes is well possible. > The code to deal with this, instead of being trivial, and with fixed > length parameters, would bacome significantly more complex. The code would need to consult a mapping table, indeed. Which is not very advanced magic.
