that is the usual in Germany, yes

that is different depending on the ISP. some use the first :0::/64  of
the /48 network as the outside (internet/isp facing) network, others use
a different /64 for that.

telling hosts on the network is as easy as sending a router
advertisement ICMPv6 packet (runs continiously):

fake_router26 -R 2001:4dd5:LLLL::/48 -r 60 -l 60 -p high eth0

if you want to also do autoconfiguration on this address area, add as
options:
 -A 2001:4dd5:LLLL::/48 -a 3600

if you want to deprecate the network just send this (runs for 10 seconds):
fake_router26 -R 2001:4dd5:LLLL::/48 -r 0 -l 60 -A 2001:4dd5:LLLL::/48
-a 0 -n 2 eth0

if you use debian or similar and install thc-ipv6 through apt then the
command is named atk6-fake_router26

If you need to inform the fritzbox then you need to either run a routing
protocol the fritzbox understands or configure something via the GUI or
enable the telnet daemon and fiddle there ...
