Again, in the LIRs graph cant see it well but I think we have 1k LIRs year. Thats makes, in the "worst" of the cases, 8 years of available IP space without taking in count if IANA returns more space.
Allocations made under the Global Policy for Post Exhaustion IPv4 Allocation Mechanisms by the IANA are scheduled to take place every six months, as required in the policy. The formula for making the allocations has been put into software which has been published: https://github.com/icann/ipv4-recovery-algorithm What cannot be predicted is whether the RIRs will be returning more address space to the IANA IPv4 Recovered Address Space registry (http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-recovered-address-space). However, if that does happen you can run the published software and see exactly how it will be distributed. Regards, Leo Vegoda
