Yup, I was also surprised that the seemingly default allocation for v6 was considered a higher category! Is it really worth it for the NCC to chase people for the difference between a /32 and a /29? I was under the impression that the /29 was reserved anyway each time a LIR got a v6 block. On Thu, Apr 13, 2023 at 3:13 PM David Brůha <d.bruha@virtis.cz> wrote:
Hello,
I agree. We are actually renting a server for offsite backups in Canada and the provider charges 1 Euro per month for 1 additional IP address. No way anyone would return unused IPv4 addresses.
But after seeing the new updated calculator we would definitely return part of our IPv6 allocation if the charging scheme category A should be chosen. The "free" enlargement from /32 to /29 suddenly costs 350 Euro per year.

It won’t. I believe most will either a) rent out, or b) sell their unused IP
addresses if it becomes a choice between having to pay for the privilege of
keeping vs converting them to either continuous (renting out) or onetime
(sale) revenue.
LIRs who have an acute IPv4 address deficit will, realistically, need to
procure more addresses on the free market. That is, if they intend to grow
their business and not let it stagnate.

Subject: Re: [members-discuss] [ncc-announce] [GM] Consultation on RIPE NCC
Charging Scheme
Hello,
I think it is very necessary to address the problem of LIRs that need
IPs in relation to LIRs that have +80% of their IPs unused.
How to fix? maybe a pay per individual IP model?
For example: 0.25 €/year per IP.
I think this will make those who have unused IPs give them back and
reduce speculation, which I think are the two big problems.
Thanks!

Dear all,
First off, I apologise for the length of this email, but I hope to cover
a number of points brought up in the consultation so far.
I want to thank you again for your input so far on the models. We are
busy looking at all the feedback. We have also seen over 100 members
sign up for the Open House next week to discuss this further, so I
appreciate your interest in helping us to reach a good outcome.
Looking at the feedback we've seen so far, there are a number of
questions and points raised where I can help to add clarity and also
answer some specific questions.
1. Some of you asked for a breakdown of the IPv4 address space held by
LIRs to help with your consideration of a category-based model. So here
is a chart with that information:

ij3nMotVAWCFKXg%3D&reserved=0
I’d like to note that in the models we are developing, we are looking to
move to a model that charges per member rather than per LIR account. So
I also have an indicative spread of how many members would be in each
category in the model we shared:
https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ripe
.net%2Fparticipate%2Fmail%2Fmember-and-community-consultations%2Fmember-sp

Ao%3D&reserved=0
2. To clarify what determines the category someone is placed within in
the model I shared, it is the highest score for just one of the
following types of resource:
- IPv4 allocations
- IPv6 allocations
- ASN assignments
- Independent resources (includes all resource assignments not in the
previous three categories, including all sponsored items)
Note: Independent resources are charged by number of assignments rather
than by the amount of IPs within the assignment.
So if your highest score is for IPv4 allocations, then the amount for
IPv6 allocations, ASNs or independent resources does not contribute to
the category you are placed in. The highest score of the four defines
the category. The elements that we charge for in the categories or
separately can of course change or be refined based on your feedback.
3. Another person asked for comparison with other RIR charging schemes,
and I provide links to the information on their websites:

4. There was a question on how we charge for those who are still on the
waiting list and have not yet received any IPv4 address space. We are
still looking at how this might work and it is something I can bring up
during the Open House. Potentially, there could be a base membership fee
and another fee once IPv4 resources are received.
5. There was a request for comment on the idea that the RIPE NCC had
permitted multiple LIRs in order to allow some members to receive more
address space. In fact, the members themselves voted at the General
Meeting to allow this in 2016. There had been a resolution by the
Executive Board to stop the creation of multiple LIR accounts in 2015;
there was a lengthy discussion about this and the Board therefore asked
the members to discuss the issue and make a decision on the matter in
2016.
Board Resolution:

Finally, there was a comment that we need to achieve a balance between
fairness and complexity. This comment really resonates with me, given
that there are possibly as many ways to charge as there are IPv6
addresses. At the Open House next week, I plan to present updated models
that take as much of your feedback as possible into account, and of
course I'll share that information afterwards with the full membership.
