IPv6 Policy Document Review - Call for comments
by RIPE NCC Staff 21 Dec '99

21 Dec '99

Dear colleagues, In July 1999, the three Regional Internet Registries (APNIC, ARIN, and the RIPE NCC) released the "Provisional IPv6 Assignment and Allocation Policy Document" (see http://www.ripe.net/lir/registries/ipv6.html) These initial policies and procedures have been carefully discussed within the community before publishing them. A formal review of the document was scheduled to start in October 1999, so that early experiences of IPv6 operation and administration could be fully evaluated and any necessary amendments made. The RIPE NCC, together with the other RIRs, now calls for comments to assist in this first review. We would like you to re-visit this document and we invite you to make any comments you feel would be constructive to the development of the next version. In particular, the RIRs seek your comments on the following sections of the document: * 4.2.3.2 Multihomed Sites This section was left unwritten in the first release, as there was insufficient experience to draw on in formulating a policy. We encourage any members of the community who have operational experience or interest in IPv6 and multi-homing to contribute suggestions for this section. * 4.2.8 Allocations to NLA Registries * 4.3.1 Assignments to End-users Review of these two sections is sought from members of the community who have relevant operational experience. * Definition of 'transit provider' A definition for the above term was not included in the current document. Comments and suggestions for an appropriate definition are encouraged. Finally, we also encourage you to take a look at the "IPv6 sub-TLA Request Form" (http://www.ripe.net/docs/ripe-195.html) and provide any comments or suggestions for improvements. Discussion will take place on the IPv6-WG mailing list <ipv6-wg(a)ripe.net>. If you prefer to submit any private comments, please do not hesitate to contact Nurani Nimpuno <nurani(a)ripe.net>. We would like to receive comments before the end of January. Kind Regards, Nurani Nimpuno Manager Registration Services RIPE NCC

The next RIPE meeting is planned for: feb 22-25, 2000 in Amsterdam Duration and exact content of the tutorial can be determined by the speaker(s), the best day to hold the tutorial is probably feb 22. Feel free to forward this message to potential candidates that you might know. Thanks in advance for your help, David K. ---
