I myself would prefer a defined range (say, a /32 block out of which /48s are allocated), but I seem to be a minority with that opinion. This range would allow operators to exclude it from their filters.
I totally agree. Derriving policy from prefix length (at least in the range up to /48) is just bogus and shouldn't be supported by issuing /32s to guarrantee routability. The folks filtering ANYTHING longer than /32 or /35 are just wrong. A /48 is far more than enough.
I don't see why RIPE need to assign a /32 when the other regions are /48s? I would also like to add that these assignments should be made out of a single block.
Joining the minority? ;-)
I certainly do. Best regards, Daniel -- CLUE-RIPE -- Jabber: dr@cluenet.de -- dr@IRCnet -- PGP: 0xA85C8AA0
