Route a small range of my IPv6 address to my eth0 IPv6 address

The /64 *is* the subnet. What you want requires a /48, which has several /64's for different networks.

Edit: Wikipedia sums it up nicely why by the way: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnetwork#IPv6_subnetting

It's not that smaller subnets can't exist, they just can't be answered by stateless address configuration/neighbor solicitation.

Would it be possible to route a small range of my IPv6 address to my eth0 IPv6 address? The reason is I have a virtual Tun adaptor on the server with an IPv6 subnetted from my /64 but eth0 doesn't respond to IPv6 neighbour solicitation. My /80 has to be routed into the eth0 interface...Route to add on OVH router isroute 2001:xxxx:2:xxxx:c001::/80 next hop 2001:xxxx:2:xxxx::1
