Tore, Thank you for your honest statement. I feel likewise. Le 31/10/2022 à 14:41, Tore Anderson a écrit :
Playing devil's advocate, I would argue that the moment some broadband subscriber decides to set up a port forwarding of 443/tcp to some web server on the LAN where a cake recipe blog is hosted or whatever, the LIR/ISP is then instantly obligated to create a individualised /32 assignment for that address.
It is neither wanted (would potentially conflicts with EU' GDPR in some ways), nor technically feasible (would create way too much load on the database as we'd all have to update it in realtime).
…
For IPv6 we use AGGREGATED-BY-LIR for these ranges, and would be nice to be able to ("legally") do something similar for IPv4.
That's what LIR' "Provider Assignments" are for : you stick them up to your BNG's and it never had to do with any individual customers. I'm not sure we have an issue here, it has been best practice and well adopted since I came around… Some zeolots of course did declare each and every B2B customer as to brag about it or offload their hotlines, but that's probably a misinterpretation of current policies. As far as I know it never happened on residential broadband yet. Best Regards, -- Jérôme Nicolle +33 6 19 31 27 14
