Ideas on how to promote IPv6
by Host Master 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

Rather than continue with the old discussion, I thought it would be more helpful to start a discussion where we come up with ideas that helps promote IPv6. Many of us RIPE NCC members already realise the value of IPv6, and how much better it would be for the Internet as the whole. Many of us are already implementing IPv6 on a large scale - including myself. There's a lot of websites that supports IPv6 already, especially the "major" ones, but if you look at Google IPv6 stats, you can see that only 12% of its users are on IPv6. The good news is that this IS twice as much as last year - so congrauations to everybody who put in a a great effort to do that. The bad news is, this still means 88% of the worlds population is still connecting from legacy IP only. This is our problem. ISP's - the people who give internet connections to the masses. This is the root cause of why we all still have to provide both legacy IP and IP to our customers, so that we can host services which will reach the greatest audience. We're not deliberately trying to slow down the deployment of IPv6 (well, at least, I hope we're not!). How do we turn this around though? How can we force ISP's to do what my ISP has done, and provide dual-stack IP for home and work connections? This is where we need to come up with suggestions. Suggestion: Tax IPv4 addresses on a per year or per quarter basis - both old allocations AND new allocations. How the taxing is done would have to be decided by a committee, but it should be a tax that cannot be passed on to the end user - i.e. the LIR themselves have to pay the tax, and they are forbidden to increase their costs to their subscribers. Condition: Every IANA member needs to impose this - i.e. RIPE NCC, AFRINIC, APNIC, ARIN and LACNIC. It won't work if only one registry does this, we need a worldwide effort. Desired effects: * ISP's will hasten their IPv6 deployment * Old unused IPv4 address blocks will be given back to the RIR to avoid paying unnecessary taxes * The number of IPv6 users on Google's stats increases exponentially Suggestion: Politely mock people who don't support IPv6. Many of the members of RIPE NCC have managed to build up a "godlike" status for themselves, because they're just awesome. With that status carries a form of respect and admiration by his or her peers, and they are extremely influential in what they say or promote. Desired effect: Instill the thought that IPv6 is the right way to go in all of the minds of their colleagues and partners. Suggested comment: "You do realise this is the 21st Century, right?" Suggestion: Boycott companies or products that don't support IPv6. There are many products which still do not support IPv6. When companies phone us trying to flog their wares, the first question you should say to them is "I'm not interested unless your product fully supports IPv6." When choosing a new XYZ solution, actively check if the product supports IPv6, and if it does not, move on to the next contender. Don't be afraid to use the "request a quote" feature to ask if the product supports IPv6. Desired effect: Companies will start taking IPv6 support more seriously if they realised people are going to stop buying their product unless they do. Thanks for taking the time to read this - if there are other suggestions which help promote IPv6, please contribute. Lester Clayton Technical Manager - Netscenario AS http://www.netscenario.no

Not updated bogon lists for /8 185
by Matej Šerc 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

Hi, we have received our chunk of v4 addresses from /8 185 in May and since all new allocations are done from the same, I am writing to reach out to other members who might have the same issue as we do. Some bogon lists, for example pfSense's https://files.pfsense.org/lists/fullbogons-ipv4.txt are not updated regularly (and 185.152.0.0/13 is listed as bogon network there) and our clients have issues accessing networks with firewalls that are using pfSense's filter bogons functionality (and use their bogon network list as a source). We have already contacted pfSense to clear it up, but there might be still some other lists that are used in some firewalls and intead of some "partial whitelisting" practices I would recommend to get those list providers update the information they're providing to their users.

It may but the access networks with large amounts of IPv4 are adopting IPv6 already, it takes a long time and it's only been started in the last few years but it's happening in large chunks, like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoqGvZr4Uto The hard bit is content hosters who mostly have enough space and don't have enough IPv4 that charging more for it will be a large incentive brandon

I am just calculating in terms of /24s as that is easiest to calculate to base the membership fee of. For example if you hold one /22 you will be charged, 4*8,23 Euros, 32,92 Euros per Year as you hold four /24s in size in total. 8,23 Euros per year per 256 IPv4 addresses is hardly a business case breaking amount of money. These changes will also bring a very real cost to super large LIRs that hold a ton of resources and may finally spark some meaningful IPv6 adoption. > > If the aim is to make it cheap enough they can go crazy taking > extra LIRs to get /22s then don't bother, that scheme was to > moderate demand and there'd likely be other measures introduced > to preserve that > > brandon > I don't understand what you are trying to say.

Dear RIPE NCC members, it seems that nobody has run the numbers yet, so let’s just do that. LIR Count: 13499 Allocated IPv4 Count: 587766784 Allocated IPv4 Count in terms of /24s: 2295964 Collected membership fees based on the membership count: 18.898.600 Euros per year Membership fee after we have switched to a per /24 system: 8,23 Euros per /24 per Year Therefore it is quite clear that we need to change the charging scheme via majority vote to a per /24 system as supported by the numbers above.

You have an ISP which have 4x/22 IPv4 DHCP pools for his clients (allocated for more then 2 years)... and decide that it's time to make some extra money.... This ISP signup for 4 additional LIR accounts... and get 4 brand new /22's... Then use then new ones for DHCP, sell his old 4x/22 and guess what... he make some extra money... ( selling old blocks price - RIPE fees > 0 ) What is the ISP have 100x/22's... or even better... if it's not an ISP and it's a spammer .. with 1000x/22s... double win... replace his blocks use them for spam and get extra money selling his old blocks...

I disagree, LIR accounts are LIR accounts and they are separate entities, if you want multiple LIR accounts to hoard IPv4's, it's only fair that you pay per /22 you aquire this way.

I'd like to discuss why an existing LIR member has to pay the sign-up fee again? As a new small LIR I'm paying a high price for a /22 IPv4. I think it's disproportionately to charge the sign-up fee again from an existing LIR member who is requesting an additional LIR account. I'd like to suggest to remove the one-time sign-up fee of EUR 2,000 for each additional LIR account. Or at least lower the sign-up fee to an acceptable rate. I'm not talking about the sign-up fee for a new LIR member, but about the sign-up fee for an additional LIR account. Thanks for discussing this subject.

IPV4 Addresses
by David Benwell 27 May '16

27 May '16

Hi, With IPv4 running out and LIRs only being allowed final /22 in my view makes it unfair to new members who may need additional addresses. With some of the other LIRs having for example /19 unused makes it unfair for them to advertise their unused address space on the transfer service and want to charge up words of £8 per IP Address. Given the fact the IP Addresses is a public resource, I fail to see how it should be allowed for LIRs to make a profit out of unused space. There should be a policy and if the address space is not used / required, it must be handed back to the public pool of resources so can then be allocated to other LIRS as part of their annual membership. I even recall the Government sitting on "I believe" a /8 and then tried to sell this off to raise money. Again this should not be allowed. LIRS should NOT be able to make profit for selling a public resource.

> To be clear, Nigel asked for the members to speak up to give the board > guidance on this subject, he wasn't the one asking for the funding :) Considering Peter Koch remarks on this topic, I must admit, that the proposed procedure seems not well founded. It has major drawbacks for the RIPE community itself (tax issues, losing project money), and it does not provide the proposed long-term solution. ITEF can't count on such payments over a longer period of time. Therefore an increased financial grant of the RIPE community through the ISOC channel seems much more appropriate. If there is an extended influence, I'd count that as a plus. We are currently experiencing the situation, that egoistic players become LIRs solely for getting access to limited resources (aka make money fast) and they do understand that this "LIR-cheating" offer them increased voting rights ... So an integrated support of the IETF looks much more promising to me.

listed in UCEProtect level 3 blacklist
by Saeed Osali 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Dear All friends, We've faced a problem recently regarding getting listed our ASN in UCEProtect Level-3 which means that about 0.2% of our IP Addresses are listed in UCEprotect-L1 level and are recognized as abusive spammers. As I checked delisting solution on the UCEProtect website, we have to pay 500 Euros roughly to get rid of this problem or wait for a week provided that none of our IPs get connected to their spam-trappers during this week. To make matters worse, yahoo, AOL, and Microsoft are using this blacklist service on their mail servers. What is your other solution for preventing IP black listing? Have you ever faced to the same problem with this company? Pay or not? Any help in this regard is appreciated. BR,

About "ownership"
by Jérôme Nicolle 26 Feb '16

26 Feb '16

Hi, The current debates made me wonder : how come we've had an inetnum market in place whereas an inetnum cannot have a market value ? It's my understanding that the IP adress space is nothing but numbers and that RIR/LIRs are only responsible for the uniqueness of allocations and assignements, that is, a transfer of liability over a shared and common immaterial resource, between community members. I'm wondering how come we made "Temporary and conditionnal liabality transfer" a synonym of "perpetual and inconditional usufruct transfer". May you please enlight me ? Thanks ! -- Jérôme Nicolle +33 6 19 31 27 14
