PI and PA are artificial names for the same thing. There is only one type of Global Unicast Addresses in IPv6. As I already explained before, the same way the AGM created the end-user contract and the corresponding fee, they should be a new fee structure within the LIR contract, for those that have one of few /48s instead of /32 or /29, etc. Regards, Jordi -----Mensaje original----- De: address-policy-wg <address-policy-wg-bounces@ripe.net> en nombre de Kai 'wusel' Siering <wusel+ml@uu.org> Organización: Unseen University, Department of Magic Mails Fecha: miércoles, 16 de mayo de 2018, 22:06 Para: <address-policy-wg@ripe.net> Asunto: Re: [address-policy-wg] proposal to remove IPv6 PI Am 16.05.2018 um 14:52 schrieb JORDI PALET MARTINEZ via address-policy-wg: > […] > I believe we have several problems that my proposal is trying to fix. > […] > Thoughts? To put it in a nutshell, I think you throw out the baby with bath water here: you're not simply "merging the requirements for PI and PA in a single policy", you'd take away any means for a non-LIR to request non-PA IP space. Moreover, you intend to force any current IPv6 PI holder into either becoming an LIR (which amounts to a 28fold cost increase: 50 => 1400 EUR/year) or to abandon the PIv6 space they build there infrastructure on. I don't yet understand what's your agenda, but I'm deeply concerned. Anyway: I oppose this proposal. It would cause a lot harm for no obvious reason. -kai ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.consulintel.es The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
