Info from the Address Council, regarding AS# allocation by IANA
by Wilfried Woeber 08 Sep '13

08 Sep '13

Dear colleagues, for your information! A while ago the IANA submitted a question regarding the appropriate interpretation of the Global Policy on AS Number Allocation[1]; in particular, whether an allocation needs to be a contiguous block or may be a set of separate ranges, including a portion of the lower value range (legacy 16-bit range). After some discussion, the Address Council agreed (unanimously, in its meeting on June 5th, 2013[2]) on the following resolution: <quote> “The AC answers IANA’s question regarding the allocation of 1024 AS Numbers as follows: There is no requirement in the policy to form the block of 1024 AS Numbers from a contiguous set of numbers, thus allocating from 2 or more different value-ranges is acceptable.” </quote> Best regards, Wilfried [1] https://www.icann.org/en/resources/policy/global-addressing/global-policy-a… http://aso.icann.org/global-policies/ [2] for clerical reasons, the (draft) minutes for the June 5th meeting have only become available in late August, thus the delay in reporting back to the Working Group and community.
