2015-03 New Policy Proposal (Assessment Criteria for IPv6 Initial Allocation Size)
by Marco Schmidt 28 Apr '15

28 Apr '15

Dear colleagues, A proposed change to the RIPE Document "IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy" now is open for discussion. The proposal aims to expand the criteria for evaluating initial IPv6 allocations larger than a /29. The RIPE NCC would consider additional aspects beyond only the number of existing users and extent of the organisation's infrastructure. You can find the full proposal at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2015-03 We encourage you to review this proposal and send your comments to <address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net> before 27 May 2015. Regards Marco Schmidt Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC

2014-05 Proposal Accepted (Policy for Inter-RIR Transfers of Internet Resources)
by Marco Schmidt 09 Apr '15

09 Apr '15

Dear colleagues, Consensus has been reached, and the policy proposal 2014-05, "Policy for Inter-RIR Transfers of Internet Resources" has been accepted by the RIPE community. You can find the full proposal at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2014-05 The new RIPE Document is ripe-644 and is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-644 The proposal also amended the policies described in the RIPE Document "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region". The new RIPE Document is ripe-643 and is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-643 We have already begun the implementation and will start with our procedures, including the necessary coordination with the other RIRs. The technical implementation will start in around one month's time, as it needs to link with the ongoing implementation of the recently accepted IPv6 and ASN transfer policies. We estimate that it will take about four months to fully implement this proposal. Details of the implementation status are available at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/policy-implementation… We will send another announcement when the implementation is finished and the new procedures are in place. Thank you to everyone who provided their input. Regards Marco Schmidt Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC

2014-12 Proposal Accepted (Allow IPv6 Transfers)
by Marco Schmidt 23 Mar '15

23 Mar '15

Dear colleagues, Consensus has been reached, and the proposal for a change to ripe-589, "IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy", has been accepted by the RIPE community. This policy change allows the transfer of IPv6 allocations and IPv6 Provider Independent (PI) assignments within the RIPE NCC service region. You can find the full proposal at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2014-12 The new RIPE Document is called ripe-641 and is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-641 Given the similarity of this policy to the recently accepted Policy Proposal 2014-13, "Allow AS Number Transfers", the RIPE NCC will implement both policy changes together. This is a more efficient execution of the policy implementation process and will lead to an extension of only two weeks to the initial estimated implementation period. We therefore estimate that to fully implement both proposals together will take three and a half months in total. Details of the implementation status are available at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/policy-implementation… We will send another announcement once the implementation is complete and the new procedures are in place. Thank you to everyone who provided their input. Regards, Marco Schmidt Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC

Details of the implementation status are available at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/policy-implementation… We will send another announcement once the implementation is complete and the new procedures are in place.
