IPv6 Allocation Process, Procedures and Policies Questions
Dear All, With IPv4 the address allocation process, procedures and policies are well documented with RIPE-141, 142 and 185. How does a registry apply for an IPv6 address block from RIPE? Are equivalent documents to 141,142 and 185 planned or being drafted? Given the architecture in IPv6 should Enterprise registries be allowed IPv6 assignments, given that the ISP part of an Enterprise may have a TLD? Should Enterprise Registries only be assigned NLAs?

Hi! Currently, some people from RIPE are working on the drafts (AFAIK) the DNS Stuff (reverse and forward) will also be handled in the document and i am currently working on that stuff (help appreciated) and will meet some people at the IEPG next sunday in Oslo. So i hope to get a first version of my part within the next weeks. The current document can be found under: http://www.ripe.net/lir/registries/ipv6policy-draft-090699.html Greetings Jan -- Jan Czmok Gigabell AG Senior Network Engineer Mainzer Landstr. 46 Member of IPv6-Forum 60325 Frankfurt Phone: +49 69 17084-716 Fax: +49 69 17084-701
There is a document with IPv6 Registration Guidelines. Please look at: http://www/lir/registries/ipv6.html We're still waiting on final approval from the IANA before we can make it official. We also need a block of IPv6 addresses from them to start allocating. We expect to receive that by the end of this month. We will make an announcement as soon as we're ready to start making allocations. As for enterprises, in general most enterprises would qualify for an NLA rather than a TLA. However there might be some large, multinational enterprises that qualify for a TLA if they fulfill the criteria listed in the document.
