Suggested updates to 2010-05 (Global Policy for IPv4 Allocation by the IANA post exhaustion)
by Chris Grundemann 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

Hello APWG, After receiving great feedback in several regions, the original authors of the proposal have discussed all of the feedback received and our suggested revisions are below: Problem #1: The allocation method was unfair. The intent was never for a single RIR to be able to be allocated all available address space in mass quantities. We do however want any available address space to be utilized if there is need. We've addressed what we would characterize as a mechanical issue. --new text: Section 3. Address Allocations from the Reclamation Pool by the IANA Allocations from the Reclamation Pool may begin once the pool is declared active. Addresses in the Reclamation Pool must be allocated on a CIDR boundary. Allocations from the Reclamation Pool are subject to a minimum allocation unit equal to the minimum allocation unit of all RIRs and a maximum allocation unit of one /8. The Reclamation Pool will be divided on CIDR boundaries and distributed evenly to all eligible RIRs once each quarter. Any remainder not evenly divisible by the number of eligible RIRs based on a CIDR boundary equal to or larger than the minimum allocation unit will remain in the Reclamation Pool. Addresses that are left over will be held in the Reclamation Pool until additional IP addresses can be returned to rejoin addresses on CIDR boundaries to the Reclamation Pool or a minimum allocation unit is set to allow allocation from existing inventory. Problem #2: Without excluding transition space, some RIR's would never be eligible. To address this, we've defined a /10 exemption for any/all pools of address space set-aside by any RIR. --new text Section 4. RIR Eligibility for Receiving Allocations from the Reclamation Pool Upon the exhaustion of an RIR's free space pool and after receiving their final /8 from the IANA[3], an RIR will become eligible to request address space from the IANA Reclamation Pool when it publicly announces via its respective global announcements email list and by posting a notice on its website that it has exhausted its supply of IPv4 address space. Exhaustion is defined as an inventory of less than the equivalent of a single /8 and the inability to further assign address space to its customers in units equal to or shorter than the longest of any RIR's policy defined minimum allocation unit. Up to one /10 or equivalent of IPv4 address space specifically reserved for any special purpose by an RIR will not be counted against that RIR when determining eligibility unless that space was received from the IANA reclamation pool. Any RIR that is formed after the ICANN Board of Directors has ratified this policy is not eligible to utilize this policy to obtain IPv4 address space from the IANA. These revisions are being proposed in all regions in order to maintain consistency in the policy text on the global level. Thank you for your consideration. ~Chris -- @ChrisGrundemann weblog.chrisgrundemann.com www.burningwiththebush.com www.coisoc.org

The review phase for 2010-04 (80% Rule Ambiguity Cleanup) has ended
by Sander Steffann 07 Sep '10

07 Sep '10

Hello working group, As Gert has already told you he won't be acting as working group chair when discussing proposal 2010-04, as he is the author of that proposal. It falls to me now to decide if we have consensus on this proposal. During the lifetime of this proposal there have been 16 messages on the list declaring support for this proposal, and no questions or objections. I feel confident that this is a very clear case of consensus and therefore I ask the PDO staff to move this proposal forward to the concluding phase (“Last Call for Comments”).

I would advise everyone to be very careful about allowing an organization to arbitrarily define something as "implementation" or "management practice" rather than "policy," especially when such a unilateral redefinition allows important processes and public input to be bypassed. --MM > -----Original Message----- > > Geoff Huston's report states that: "At the time IANA reaches the last > > 5 /8s (the "IANA Exhaustion time" as defined by current address > > allocation policies), these unassigned addresses in the legacy /8s are > > then distributed evenly to the RIRs."

IETF Internet-Draft "IANA Reserved IPv4 Prefix for IPv6 Transition"
by Emilio Madaio 19 Aug '10

19 Aug '10

Dear Colleagues, At the IETF 78 Meeting in Maastricht in July 2010, the Operations and Management Area Working Group (OPSAWG) presented "IANA Reserved IPv4 Prefix for IPv6 Transition". This presentation introduced the Internet draft document that specifies the use of a reserved IANA /8 address block from its remaining pool of unallocated IPv4 addresses. The reserved address space would be used as "Shared Transition Space", intended as: "[...] IPv4 address space reserved for Service Provider or large enterprise use with the purpose of facilitating IPv6 transition and IPv4 coexistence deployment. This space SHOULD only be used for the purpose of providing NAT'ed IPv4 access to subscriber networks or IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnels during the transition to full IPv6 deployment. These addresses MAY be used without any coordination with IANA or any other Internet registry. " The Internet draft document is available at: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-weil-opsawg-provider-address-space/ Discussion on this draft document is ongoing at: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/opsawg/current/maillist.html Kind Regards, Emilio Madaio Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC

New Draft Document: Autonomous System (AS) Number Assignment Policies
by Filiz Yilmaz 05 Aug '10

05 Aug '10

Dear Colleagues, At the RIPE 59 Meeting in Lisbon in October 2009, the RIPE NCC announced that it would undertake a project to improve the language of various RIPE Policy Documents, without changing their substance or meaning. This project is aimed at improving the clarity and readability of RIPE Documents. For more information, see: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/updated-documents A draft of the first RIPE Document to be revised, ripe-463, "Autonomous System (AS) Number Assignment Policies and Procedures", was then published. The status of the project was presented at the RIPE 60 Meeting in Prague in May 2010, and new discussions and decisions ensued. The development of the project led to a second version of the draft. We have published this draft document in two layouts. The first layout contains only the proposed text, in full, and is available at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/updated-documents/ASN-inc-v2.html The second layout contains both the current text and the proposed text side by side, and it’s available at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/updated-documents/ASN-comp-v2.html At the top of both draft documents, there is a summary of the proposed changes. There are three changes we would like to highlight because they differ from the previous version of the draft. Abstract The abstract was edited to be more precise and comprehensive. Paragraph 5.0: Validity of an Assignment This paragraph was removed as per feedback from the RIPE community. Paragraph 8.0: Attribution This paragraph was added to note the participation of the people who made AS Number-related proposals through the RIPE Policy Development Process and who therefore contributed to the wording of the AS Number policy documents over time. During RIPE 60, the RIPE community agreed to use this method of attribution for all future RIPE Policy Documents. Other smaller changes are listed at the top of document. Please review the text and send any feedback you might have to the Address Policy Working Group mailing list. The period for review is two weeks and lasts until 29 July 2010. After the review period, the Address Policy Working Group Chairs will conclude whether or not there is consensus on the draft document. Kind regards, Filiz Yilmaz Policy Development Manager RIPE NCC

2010-02 Review Period has ended (Allocations from the last /8)
by Emilio Madaio 04 Aug '10

04 Aug '10

Dear Gert and Sander, The review period for the new RIPE Document described in proposal 2010-02 has ended. You can find the full proposal at: http://ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2010-02.html Please reply to this email to let us know how you would like to proceed. * Do you want to move the proposal to "Last Call"? The Last Call period is four weeks. * Do you want us to edit the draft document text? Please tell us the details that you want us to edit. * Do you want to extend the review period? Please let us know what date you wish to extend it to, and we will tell the RIPE community. * Do you want to withdraw this proposal? Please let us know your decision in the next seven days. Below a brief summary of the discussion in the Review Phase. Some observations were made on some points of the new proposal draft and on the possible consequences to the proposal implementation: -there should be a need to mention how the PI space will be handled (Tulyev, Davidson, Kuenzler); -it may be prudent to implement the policy on the last /8 contiguous block from IANA, rather than the potential fragmented last available /8 in the NCC address pool(Anderson); -possible situations when an LIR cannot justify an immediate need for a /22 (Anderson) and therefore a suggestion to allow extra /22 assignment overtime (Schliesser); -impossibility to assign Anycast address(Tulyev). The archived discussion is available at http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/address-policy-wg/2010/index-th… We look forward to your response.
