Dear colleagues, 



RIPE policy proposal 2024-02, "IPv6 Initial Allocations /28 " is now available for discussion again.



This proposal aims to change the initial IPv6 allocation size from /29 to /28.


Following the last round of discussion, this proposal has been updated and it is now at version 2.0.

The main differences from version 1.0 are that it allows the provision without additional documentation of initial allocations from /32 up to /28, instead of /32 or /28, and only a single existing allocation extension per member.

As per the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP), the purpose of this four-week Discussion Phase is to discuss the proposal and provide feedback to the proposers. 


At the end of the Discussion Phase, the proposers, with the agreement of the WG Chairs, will decide how to proceed with the proposal. 



The PDP document can be found at:
