Policy proposal 2013-03
by alain.bidron＠orange.com 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

I object to the policy proposal 2013-03 2013- No Need - Post-Depletion Reality Adjustment and Clean up. I will not reiterate the arguments developed by Michele during the meeting in Dublin and on this list, and those clearly explained by Malcom. I agree with both of them. This proposal is in no way a post depletion adjustment, and clean up, it would dramatically change the basic principle in IPv4 management and would have a very strong impact on local management. Rather than simplifying the local management, it would make it even more difficult as the core principle is that existing and future assignments are based on needs. If this core principle is not part of the consistent set of policies to be applied by the LIRs, any management decision at local level would be questionable. We introduce here some instability, with potential impact on LIRs responsibilities. On the political side the consequences would also be quite problematic. Regards.

Assignment window vs allocated space vs "bought" IP space?
by Roger Jørgensen 29 Jul '13

29 Jul '13

Earlier today a friend with a new LIR got confused by assignment window (21) vs allocated address space (/22). That trigged another question for me. If that LIR somehow got their hand on another /20 from somewhere that is not RIPE, does the same assignment window apply to that /20 ? Or how does AW apply to bought/transferred address space? -- Roger Jorgensen | ROJO9-RIPE rogerj(a)gmail.com | - IPv6 is The Key! http://www.jorgensen.no | roger(a)jorgensen.no

Is the final /8 the correct term ? - semi off track to the 2013-03 discussion..
by Erik Bais 28 Jul '13

28 Jul '13

Hi, Ive heard the phrase the final /8 in several discussions but I want to ask people what their idea is about the pool that is currently still left If you think that the pool which we have left is only the final /8 that we are working into currently (185.x.y.z) I think that the assumption is incorrect. There is still space left at IANA and once the first RIR reaches below their /9 mark of their final /8 from my understanding it is , that also that space is going to be allocated to the RIRs . Also there will be reclaimed space from 2007-01 and closing LIRs (forced or by people their own decision) and also that space all goes back into the same pool. So you might need quite a couple of new entities to finish the pool as it is. . . Ive seen people say, why not open 20 new entities, setup a new LIR in each .. and you have 20 /22s Yes it is possible.. However Ive noticed, there is little support to close this gap.. or the gap to be able to merge those 20 LIRs .. or the option to be able to merge any LIRs that already have their final /8 /22 provided. Yes there will be people who play the system.. and with the bottom in sight, do we want to close all possible loopholes ? If we decide, no we dont want to close the loopholes, stop mentioning it in the discussion as a possible threat, because we already decided it is what it is and we are not going to close the gap. There will be some people that will just open a second LIR or perhaps even 8, there will be people who go to the IPv4 market and seek their v4 fix there The more people will request space from the current pool, with their own benefit in mind without any regard for the actual intention of the policy (provide an option for new companies into the market) it is too bad. If we are happy with the policy in place or dont see/feel the need to change, it is to me a clear consensus on how it is potentially abused. If there is no consensus and people do feel the requirement to adjust it, lets see what goes faster Getting a new policy in place or the depletion of the pool as it is currently Just my 2 cent. Erik

Re: [address-policy-wg] 2013-03 New Draft Document and Impact Analysis Published(No Need - Post-Depletion Reality Adjustment and Clean up)(Tore Anderson)
by sandrabrown＠ipv4marketgroup.com 25 Jul '13

Dear Tore, Thank you for inviting me to speak. >>I feel this statement is somewhat disingenuous. The "odd RIR out" here is really ARIN, who is the only one to have a inter-RIR transfer policy that has a needs-based requirement that is also applied to the other region involved in the transfer. I agree 100% that ARIN is the "Odd RIR Out". Only ARIN pushes for needs assessments and other silliness on transfers, and I agree 100% that companies will not be silly about spending good money on IPv4 addresses that may become worthless. >>That said, there has been an inter-RIR proposal (2012-02) on the table for a while now, but the community does not seem to want or care much about it. I think that this is important to keep that in mind when deciding on how much weight to give this argument against 2013-03. Yes, 2012-02 was on the table, but has now been withdrawn, pending the outcome of 2013-03. If, and hopefully when, 2013-03 is implemented, then my intention is to put in place a new inter-RIR proposal for the RIPE community, at a time the community feels is appropriate, which allows for transfer of **legacy** IP's currently in the ARIN registry. As you probably know, legacy IP's were issued to resource holders prior to the creation of ARIN in 1997, and thus legacy holders can request RIPE to register their IP's, if the RIPE community agrees, rather than ARIN, as the registry. Then the inter-RIR transfer of legacy IP's from ARIN to RIPE can proceed regardless of needs justification, as the legacy IP's would be in the RIPE registry rather than the ARIN registry. We would have to discuss the mechanics as it might better be regarded as an inter-RIR transfer from a legacy ARIN registry element to a RIPE LIR. This is much like the ERX transfers of the past, but to a purchasing LIR. >>I'm not at all principally opposed to inter-RIR transfers, so if the author of 2012-02 would add a "need compatibility clause" to the proposed inter-RIR policy, I would have nothing against that. In other words, if it would be possible to make the need evaluation a voluntary thing that you only had to do if transferring addresses from the ARIN region - fine. Then those 5 LIRs, and those 5 only, could subject themselves to whatever demands the ARIN community might have, while the rest of us would be free of the IPv4 bureaucracy. Win-win. No, the author of 2012-02 is strongly opposed to needs justification so I would not be interested in adding needs compatibility to inter-RIR transfers. I would much rather focus on legacy IP's for inter-RIR transfers, intra-RIR transfers within RIPE, and will support any discussion within the community to bring modern economics to ARIN. Best Regards, and Thanks for the Invitation, Sandra Brown

Dear Colleague, I've faced a problem and I want to address it to you; I hope you can help me. One of my customers called "Sapco" has 193.105.2.0/24 range of IP address, It has already established BGP protocol with us and ITC (You can find its diagram in attachment). Everything with this Range IP is ok but when Sapco's clients want to browse Google's website, google.br (Belgium) opens instead of google.com. I registered its IPs in Google' support (https://support.google.com/websearch/contact/ip), unfortunately the problem hasn't solved yet. I've checked these IPs in all websites, in all of them 193.105.2.0/24 registered Iran country but I and ITC don't know what the problem is. I hope you can help me, if you face this kind of problem.

Guidance Requested: Reassigning Referenced ASNs
by Sonderegger Olaf ABRAXAS INFORMATIK AG 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

Hi all Based on Randy's proposal: > inform owner of dangling reference. wait a week. inform again. > wait a month. inform again. wait a week. remove dangling reference. > wait a month to see if anything has broken enough to get the attention > of folk who do not respond to email. reassign AS number. In my point of view, it is enough to inform once. Members have to update their information, members have to be contactable by e-mail. So: 1. Inform owner about its wrong objects (only once). 2. If an owner doesn't clean up its objects, RIPE NCC should be able to clean up by itself after a month. 3. Re-assign AS numbers after two month. Best regards, Olaf Sonderegger
