Hello,

I think that if we are changing the policy in regards to allocations from the Last /8 we should make sure this is not abused.

There are many LIRs setup solely for the purpose of getting an allocation from the last /8 to rent this space out. As this space is offered for a very low fee it is often abused and hence artificially increasing the IPv4 depletion. This should not be the case.

I think the policy should allow for the subsequent allocations from the last /8, but only if the space is not only not transferred out of the LIR account in the period of 18 months AND the LIR was not renting the space from the last /8 to another entities within the last 18 months period (solely, not as part of another service).

What do you think ?

Kind Regards,

Dominik
