Re: Initial PA Allocation Criteria

Hi, after having read several opinions in this thread, I still don't agree to some points. I do think, the policy as proposed would represent a drawback for start-ups entering the market. > -----Urspruengliche Nachricht----- > Von: RIPE NCC Staff [SMTP:ncc@ripe.net] > Gesendet am: Freitag, 15.

This proposal in turn means x.net will either have to make up figures to create this immediate need or will have to start with PI space. Will they get PI space without having enough customers? - no! I think taken the policy, those providers will have to start their business being single-homed with PA address space from their upstream provider. This is a major disadvantage. Only after having a /22 filled, the company could start to apply for a LIR, a somewhat time-consuming process. With a successful business, x.net will already have a /21 of borrowed PA space announced. > Renumbering: > If current address space held by the Local IR amounts to a /22 or > less, the Local IR is required to renumber that address space into the > PA Allocation it will receive from the RIPE NCC. Once x.net has reached the status of a LIR they can become multi-homed. Will they get their address space routed? Only if it is declared PI. If so, they should definitely not be forced to renumber. If x.net uses other one's PA so far, they will have to renumber for routability. X.net will have to approach their customers to renumber their network. Who of the readers would choose x.net as provider where you know you'd have to renumber at some stage? This is the second major disadvantage. > Can the lir-wg agree with the above proposed criteria? > If no further objections are raised I would like to suggest that the > RIPE NCC moves forward and implements this policy. > Honestly, I believe the community should take measures to preserve address space.

Private address and static IP as an commercial offer.
by Arif OKTAY 21 Jun '01

21 Jun '01

Hi All, I appreciate if someone clarifies the situations for the following; 1- Address Translation and Private Address Space Usage. Some of my customers want to use public addresses with no technical reason. Their main concern is to avoid the extra expenditure for a NAT/proxy/firewall. Should I force them to use one ? 2- I've seen the following advertisement on the net. Doesn't this constitute a violation of the policy as " IP addresses does not have any commercial value". There wasn't any extra info whether this amount was billed for dns records or any other service. Advertisement was from ARIN region. "For just an additional $15/month, you can get a single static IP address - perfect for using your company's VPN (Virtual Private Network) or accessing the corporate network. The Static IP feature is only available at your residential location. Currently, the feature is only available for new customers in certain areas. For more information and to order your Static IP address today, please call x-xxx-xxx-xxxx and ask for the "Static IP feature".

This happens a lot when NATs are discussed:) <CUT> Undeniably people are using NAT's now and they are communicating with each other and us. NATs have advantages in IP address management, I think the question people should ask is "In my specific situation do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?". This is a business decision but I think that most people making the decision aren't even aware of the issues. If you get questions give people the link above. Let them make an informed decision.

hello when inserting objects with <angle brackets> like this: import: from AS1273 action pref=100; accept <AS-ECRC> AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} the query http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/whois?query=AS5427 will not display the data correctly: import: from AS1270 action pref=100; accept AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0} also, AFAIR previously the http output made the 'ASxxx' strings as links to the objects which was very convenient. will we see that again? regards, heiko -- Heiko Blume (HB21) mailto:heiko.blume@iprimus.de iPrimus Telecommunications GmbH http://www.iprimus.de Marienburger Str. 1, D-10405 Berlin Phone: +49.30/443366-0 Fax: -15 Core-l -- If you don't know then you don't need to know

hi, so if we keep the ration on this logic this cost also should be proportional to the IP adresses assigned ? seems hard to justify what complies with the policy and what doesn't . arif, At 14.06.2001, you wrote: >At 11:45 14/06/2001, Arif OKTAY wrote: >>2- I've seen the following advertisement on the net.

Good News..
by Axel Pawlik 13 Jun '01

13 Jun '01

Dear all, [apologies for duplicate mails] During the INET conference, that took place last week in Stockholm, Brian Carpenter presented this year's Jonathan Postel Award to Daniel Karrenberg. To quote from the Internet Society's website: >The Jonathan B. Postel Service Award was established by the Internet >Society to honor a person who has made outstanding contributions in >service to the data communications community. It is named for Dr. Jonathan >B. Postel to recognize and commemorate the extraordinary stewardship >exercised by Jon over the course of a thirty year career in networking. Daniel, whom many of you know as one of the founding members of RIPE, and who conceived the concept of the RIPE NCC, and served as its General Manager from 1992 to 1999, was commended for his nearly 20 year long involvement with networking and the Internet in Europe, and for his continuously selfless contributions to the Internet community. It is with special delight that we congratulate Daniel today, and wish him equal success during the coming decades! And, of course, all of us at the RIPE NCC are very happy that Daniel is still "one of us"... kind regards, Axel Pawlik

Staffing update, and good news
by Axel Pawlik 13 Jun '01

13 Jun '01

Dear all, it gives me great pleasure to announce that we have chosen Sabrina Waschke to fill the newly created position of Registration Services Operations Manager. As such, Sabrina will be responsible of the day to day operations of Registrations Services, overseeing the quality of service. A big part of her tasks is to take care of the Registration Services staff. Sabrina will report directly to the Managing Director. Sabrina has already started in her new position effective of 1 June. Also, as of 1 June, Nurani Nimpuno has become the Internet Address Policy Manager. Her responsiblities are primarily to maintain, and develop RS related policies. Also a major part of Nurani's tasks will be to closely monitor the relevant mailing lists (notably lir-wg), and to pro-actively contribute where and when appropriate. Further, as a result of the discussions between the RIRs over the last months, Nurani will be responsible to co-ordinate policies with the other RIRs; this will enable a globally more consistent policy making process. Nurani will continue to report to the Managing Director. I'm looking forward to working together closely with Sabrina and Nurani. kind regards, Axel Pawlik
