GV> An issue I see with this policy is that it does not support pro-active address planning for the longer term and may end up in fragmented non-summarizable address space within an organization. Mainly because the newly required address space will be different block and will as result require new address planning policy within the organization itself.
I don't understand your comment. The idea of the policy proposal is to automatically grow the existing /32 to a /29. That results in a single /29 for an ISP. GV> That would be perfect.. I was just reading the comments sequentially... and just assumed that when an ISP gets through the HD ratio stuff on his first /32, that he will gets the neighbor /32. In that case the ISP needs to make a new address plan policy, which would not be as clean as if he would have had a /31 to start off with. With the /29 there would be no issue at all on this matter.
