A 'regular' subnet is a /48 (in CIDR notation) which means 48 bits (of the 128 bit address space) is used to decribe your network address.
This leaves a mediocre 2^80 (thats 2*2...eighty times) IP's for you to do whatever you wish with. Hopefully thats enough for you ;)
Most people break the 2^80 allocation into 65,536 subnets of 2^64 IP's. You obviously can use them however you please.
Cheers
