This document defines an IPv6 Geographic global unicast address 
        format for use in the Internet.  The address format defined in this 
        document is consistent with the IPv6 Protocol [1] and the "IPv6 
        Addressing Architecture" [2].  It is designed to facilitate scalable 
        Internet routing when sites attach to multiple service providers, by 
        using a prefix based on a geographic reference to the site. A 
        natural byproduct of this address allocation mechanism is that all 
        addresses are fixed allowing sites to change providers at will 
        without requiring their network to renumber.
