MediaWiki 1.20wmf4 and later: (See gerrit:11259 and gerrit:11260)

	'IPv6' => 19,
];

Before MediaWiki 1.20wmf4:

$wgBlockCIDRLimit = array(
       'IPv4' => 16, # Blocks larger than a /16 (64k addresses) will not be allowed
       'IPv6' => 64, # 2^64 = ~1.8x10^19 addresses
);
This setting does not control Extension:GlobalBlocking , which has its own configuration setting.
