Hi all

 

My question is: Why RIPE NCC should go one step back instead one step forward?

I remember an idea to remove status "Provider Aggregatable" (PA) and "Provider Independent" (PI) for IPv6 addresses [see Ref 1 / Ref 2]. If we go ahead with this idea and open it for any kind of IP address, than final result is the same as current guidance request.

Ref 1: http://ripe62.ripe.net/presentations/148-wg.pdf

Ref 2: http://ripe63.ripe.net/presentations/143-wg3.pdf

I think, I could accept request as our first step in direction of removing status "Provider Aggregatable" (PA) and "Provider Independent" (PI).

 

Best regards,
