Re: [members-discuss] Input from Membership on RIPE NCC Charging Scheme Model

The plan I envision is quite simple, move from the current Flatrate charging scheme to a system that charges members an amount for the resources they are using. This will ensure that each and every RIPE NCC member will pay their fair share. 1. Charge per allocated IPv4 address with a linear system. price_per_ipv4 = required_budget / amount_of_addresses_in_use your_yearly_membership_fee = amount_of_ipv4_you_use * price_per_ipv4 This will also apply to Provider Independent(PI) assignemnts, anycasting assignments and Legacy Internet Resources registered via a sponsoring Local Internet Registry(LIR). IPv6 PI assignments and IPv6 IXP assigments will remain unchanged at 50,-- Euros per year. If we ever reach a point where IPv4 becomes obsolete revert back to a Flatrate System as due to the nature of IPv6 a Flatrate system is a fair choice. 2. Increase the Setup Fee to an amount that reflects the current reality of the transfer market, 6.000,-- Euros. 3. Introduce an Inter-RIR Transfer Fee for resources that leave the RIPE Region so people don't flee with their resources into a cheaper Region, 3,-- Euros per IPv4 address. 4. Buy Back IPv4 resources and return them to the free pool with any excess money from members that are willing to give back resources. Kind Regards, Stefan Prager -- Prager-IT e.U.

Fearghas, I was specifically talking about 100% ready to go, 90% or 95% isn't good enough to turn off IPv4. Neither Sky nor BT have announced 100% ready to go as far as I am aware: http://arstechnica.co.uk/information-technology/2016/08/sky-will-push-all-su bscribers-onto-ipv6-network-by-summer-2016/ -----Original Message----- From: members-discuss [mailto:members-discuss-bounces@ripe.net] On Behalf Of Fearghas Mckay Sent: 14 September 2016 11:02 AM To: members-discuss(a)ripe.net Subject: Re: [members-discuss] Input from Membership on RIPE NCC Charging Scheme Model Paul > On 14 Sep 2016, at 10:40, Paul Webb <Paul.Webb(a)clearstreamgroup.co.uk> wrote: > > Certainly RIPE, but organisations such as the IX's, could also start making IPv4 more expensive and help the migration and I'd argue they should be. Sadly the larger LIR's have a disproportionate influence in all the important places, which doesn't help. How does an IX that operates at Layer 2 drive the price of IPv4 up ? Chris > If you look at the UK for example, I can't think of any large LIR/ISP that is fully IPv6 ready (there's only one I can think of that isn't too far off), yet I can think of many smaller ones that are 100% good to go and have been for some time. Apart from BT and Sky that have both just finished the v6 rollouts. f ---- If you don't want to receive emails from the RIPE NCC members-discuss mailing list, please log in to your LIR Portal account and go to the general page: https://lirportal.ripe.net/general/ Click on "Edit my LIR details", under "Subscribed Mailing Lists".
