Hi Guys: Seriously, it is not first time people complaint about it,please, unsubscribe your ticket system from the mailing list, it is really annoying every time I sent out a reply I get 10 auto responds. Should we ask RIPE NCC add field in the new member application form says "members discussion mailing list Email: ", in which specially quote "no auto responds allowed in the list". Since the increasing amount of members are coming. -- -- Kind regards. Lu

Hi, After checking the provided statistics and current IPv4 available pool, I'm interested to know that base on the last 12 month net allocation rate when would be the full depletion of RIPE NCC's IPv4 pool. At the moment it seems that opening additional LIR accounts by a member is not a problem (to me), and there are some benefits for current members, too. Regards, Arash Naderpour -----Original Message----- From: ncc-announce [mailto:ncc-announce-bounces@ripe.net] On Behalf Of Nigel Titley Sent: Thursday, February 11, 2016 9:56 PM To: ncc-announce(a)ripe.net Subject: [ncc-announce] [news] RIPE NCC Members and Multiple LIR Accounts - Please Discuss Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC Executive Board would like to ask the membership to discuss the issue of RIPE NCC members opening additional LIR accounts. There were comments at the RIPE NCC General Meeting (GM) in November 2015 that members having the ability to open additional LIR accounts, each of which can request a /22 of IPv4 address space, may run against the spirit of the last /8 policy. In light of this, the Board decided to temporarily suspend the ability of RIPE NCC members to open additional LIR accounts. The RIPE NCC began to allocate IPv4 address space from the last /8 policy on 14 September 2012. Since that time the RIPE NCC has allocated more than 8,600 /22s, yet there remains 0.94 of a /8 still in the pool. ACTION REQUIRED: The Board asks the membership to provide their opinion on and discuss the following points: 1. Is the activity of members opening additional LIR accounts a problem that must be prevented? 2. If this activity is a problem that must be prevented, what action should the RIPE NCC take to attempt its prevention? Statistics pertinent to this discussion are available in this article on RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/laura_cobley/ripe-ncc-members-and-multiple-li… The Board asks that members discuss this issue on the Members Discuss mailing list <members-discuss(a)ripe.net>. The Board will monitor the discussion and will review it at the next Executive Board Meeting on 31 March 2016. Depending on the outcome of that meeting, the Board may propose a resolution for members to vote on at the RIPE NCC General Meeting in May 2016. Best regards, Nigel Titley RIPE NCC Executive Board

Dear colleagues, We recently discovered an issue affecting subscriptions to the <ncc-announce(a)ripe.net> and <members-discuss(a)ripe.net> mailing lists. An error introduced into our automated processes was preventing subscription changes made via the LIR Portal from being reflected on these mailing lists. No other mailing lists were affected. This issue was in effect from 1 September 2015 and has now been resolved. The majority of you will not have been affected by this issue, and any changes you may have made to your subscriptions to the <ncc-announce(a)ripe.net> and <members-discuss(a)ripe.net> mailing lists during this time (including subscribing, unsubscribing or changing your contact email address) have now been processed. No further action is required on your part. A record of all emails sent to these lists is available in the archives. <ncc-announce(a)ripe.net> archives are available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ncc-announce/ <members-discuss(a)ripe.net> archives are available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/members-discuss/ Timely communications with our members is very important to us, and we sincerely regret this error. We have introduced measures to ensure this doesn’t happen again, and we apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. Kind regards, Serge Radovcic Chief Communications Officer RIPE NCC

Dear RIPE NCC Board, Thank you for opening this discussion/consultation. > 1. Is the activity of members opening additional LIR accounts a > problem that must be prevented? It is. The RIPE NCC policies should be written in a way which is beneficial to its community. Having a number of organisations using them to profit (financially or by gaining more IP addresses) is not in our community’s interest. However, any response to a problem should be proportional to the issue and therefore the RIPE NCC’s answer to this problem should take in consideration the number of member abusing the system and the harm being done to the community. The last /8 policy was mostly written to make sure new entrants are not priced out of market and from the data there is no evidence this is yet the case. Therefore any solution should be careful to keep this goal. 2. If this activity is a problem that must be prevented, what action should the RIPE NCC take to attempt its prevention? This is a very broad topic, and a decision by consensus without some more research and a/some paper(s) to guide the discussion seems unwise here. That said … Like others, I can see two scenarios why an organisation may register several LIR: (0) it is practical for their organisation - nothing to see (1) to secure for itself several /22 when the last /8 policy comes in play (2) to secure a number of /22 to resell … If the board is aware of other case, I would welcome some enlightemement For case (1) The RIPE NCC could restrict the number of LIR an organisation wish to have (to a suitable low but practical number) as long as this does not impact genuine use of the RIPE NCC. For case (2), The most likely impact of forbidding this practice may be to increase the price of IPv4 at sales (passing on the cost of the business creation), which would affect people needing IP space - and required to purchase some - more than the people selling it and making the profit. Price changes should only be brought forward if the RIPE NCC is sure it can price ‘bad’ business models out. As this is something we have no data to make our mind on and and which may also have other side effects - I am unsure it would be wise. Also the membership should keep in mind that any new ‘policy’ will be immediately ‘played’ by people actively trying to game the system. Therefore careful thoughts should be placed on any new rule placed which will therefore inevitably have unintended consequences. Regarding enforcing some rules for the transfer of resources, I am concerned it could place the organisation in a position where it could be on the receiving hand of legal challenges. Therefore I would favour any solution which would not require any ‘human judgement’ by the RIPE NCC at transfer time. > The Board will monitor the discussion and will review it at the next > Executive Board Meeting on 31 March 2016. Depending on the outcome of > that meeting, the Board may propose a resolution for members to vote > on at the RIPE NCC General Meeting in May 2016. I would hope the RIPE NCC does put forwad some proposals for vote. As the board may not be in a position to ‘guess’ the option(s) most likely to gain consensus, a number of proposals could be presented to the membership so should a proposal succeed (or fail) others can be presented to complete / replace it. (This assumes the extra new LIRs are not already in a veto position with our usual voting engagement) Also the RIPE NCC may consider to add this information to the list of RIPE NCC’s LIR as: - it would allow to spot who may oppose changes to the RIPE NCC policies due to personal gain - it would the community to use other form of self-regulation to act on this matter should the RIPE NCC fail to reach consensus. Some of the options to remove the benefit of registering several LIR are (more than one could be considered for a solution): - creating some more aggresive rules regarding the transfer of resources - not allowing resources transfer for ‘young’ LIR - changing the rules for the last /8 * having a concept of related LIR * providing some space in relation to the existing allocation (at the cost of increasing the fragmentation of the /8). - revoking the last /8 policy - treating it as normal - revoking the last /8 policy - keeping the space until more visibility on how best use it can be gathered. - .. surely some more .. Sincerely, Thomas Mangin Exa Networks Limited

Is the activity of members opening additional LIR accounts a problem > that must be prevented? It is obviously clear as the Sun is, that people open additional LIR accounts only to get another /22. The purposes are going mainly two ways: 1. the people need IPv4 for their own usage (hosters, cloud or vpn suppliers, ISP's - but they have more solutions) 2. for the speculative (ab)use. One of speculative abuses is following proceeding: - open the LIR, get /22, rent it for spammers (virgin addresses are expensive) after the IPs fall into the black lists, withdraw them from BGP and silently wait two years to sell the IP's - meanwhile, the addresses are purified from black lists and can be sold, and the LIR gets closed. The first of the ways I'm willing to accept - the prices on the "free market" (quotes purposeful) are much higher. The second is not fair to the other members of the RIPE NCC and should not take place - this practice is driving the black market and making speculative prices. In this case the 2-year transfer ban does not help anyway - with this type of activity it is not an obstacle. So I'm going to a conclusion, that either: a) it should not be prevented opening additional LIR, but limit "the openings" for one piece in 24(?) months. Additionally the resources received this way should be excluded from the transfer to another "foreign" LIR with significantly long time. These resources could be merged only with its own "primary" LIR after one year, but after that they can not be transferred out for at least 5 years. This should be enough to discourage speculation. or b) since the opening of the next LIR within one person or entity (organization) is creating a fiction - (see above) I postulate to go new way: one entity one LIR as principle. All additional LIRs opened by the same entity should be administratively merged info one account. Fees for this should be an annual cost of maintaining of each LIR. After that the resources should be locked for 5 years. After this cleanup let's introduce the fee for "new LIR resources" equal to the yearly cost of opening and maintenance of the new LIR and hold the lock the transfer for 5 years - this is in fact coming back to the concept of allocation a additionally /22 not often than 24 months for a fee equal to the annual cost of LIR. I think, that option b) will be more transparent. Otherwise, we risk a rash of new LIRs, who are not really "new entrants" but only a pretext to meet the needs of current users or drive the abusers.

Hi Nigel, > ACTION REQUIRED: > The Board asks the membership to provide their opinion on and discuss > the following points: > > 1. Is the activity of members opening additional LIR accounts a problem > that must be prevented? Yes. The final /8 policy allows one /22 per LIR so that the RIPE NCC can at least give a small block of IPv4 addresses to each LIR (compared to no IPv4 addresses at all when the final /8 block runs out). This small block is needed so that those entities can at least run DNS, SMTP, NAT etc services on IPv4 for as long as necessary for the internet to migrate to IPv6. This is expected to take a long time, so RIPE NCC should be able to provide such blocks for a long time in the best interest of interoperability on the internet. A single member opening multiple LIRs to get multiple /22s goes against the spirit and purpose of this and if abused on a large scale will cause problems for future RIPE NCC members. > 2. If this activity is a problem that must be prevented, what action > should the RIPE NCC take to attempt its prevention? This is more difficult. Some ideas: When an organisation is already an LIR don't allow them to open a new LIR. RIPE NCC membership already has a minimum length of one year. If I understand correctly LIRs that close in the first year still have to pay the full first year's membership fee. Maybe extend this to 2 or 3 years to make it less interesting to create disposable LIRs just to get some resources and then merge them into another LIR. Any way to prevent such disposable LIRs would be good. RIPE NCC is an association and those wanting to become members should be serious about it. Cheers, Sander

If the current SSA doesn't mandate such action I think that we should add it. Are there attemps right now to fool the RIPE NCC into opening additional accounts?

I think members opening additional LIR accounts goes against the spirit and history of RIPE. If Level3, Google, Akamai and others open multiple LIR accounts, I will then change my opinion. I also believe RIPE should not grant multiple LIR accounts additional requests for /22s. Regards, Hank Nussbacher IUCC

Dear All, dear Nigel, nI think using is ot abusing. There was a plenty of abusing even before september 2012. Wall of shame is there. No one is shamed though. It's pretty full of LIR that feel in peace with themselves creating a route obejct for a /22 and don't understand what is "making assignements". They don't have assignements at all. I have to notice though that multiple LIR accounts is not legally abusing any policy at the moment. Could be considered simply unfair. Fake contracts or fake needings declaration made before 2012 were/are illegal. Returing allocated and unused is mostly impossible but I would like to see what would happen to stockpiled IPs if memership fee were IP/monthly based. Cheaper transferts, cheaper leases, more LIRs doing their work, more internet. Said that here you are my opinion: 1. Is the activity of members opening additional LIR accounts a problem that must be prevented? Yes, should be prevented. > 2. If this activity is a problem that must be prevented, what action > should the RIPE NCC take to attempt its prevention?

I'm not in favour of blanket-banning additional LIRs. This would be regulating deeply into how members structure their business. I can think of a few legitimate reasons to have multiple LIR accounts - for instance if you're preparing a BU for spinning off, it may be convenient to create a second LIR and transfer the resources it needs to that. Of course this can also be done by creating a second legal entity and that is my second point: Such a ban would not be terribly efficient. Creating another legal entity or two is not very hard and, compared to the NCC membership cost, it's not very expensive either (depends on the jurisdiction, of course, it's easier in some than in others). If one intended to abuse this system, one could use straw men too, this is nothing new. A possible compromise solution could be to limit the additional accounts a member can open (to like 2 or 3) to catch legitimate use cases. rgds, Sascha Luck

JFTR, I fully agree with the Board's decision. Very much related, this German article[1] claims that in November, 2000 new LIRs were created, bringing the total amount of LIRs to almost 13,000. Can someone reconfirm with official numbers, please? I am _very_ much concerned about what that means for any potential future GMs if those, let's call them creative, people and LIRs vote en bloc.
