New IPv4 block allocated to RIPE NCC
by Andrea Cima 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [Apologies for duplicate mails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC has received the IPv4 address range 185/8 from the IANA. This is the final allocation of IPv4 address space that the RIPE NCC will receive from the IANA as stated in ripe-436, "Global Policy for the Allocation of the Remaining IPv4 Address Space". The minimum allocation size for this /8 has been set at /22. You may wish to adjust any filters you have in place accordingly. More information on the IP address space administered by the RIPE NCC can be found on our website at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-ncc-managed-address-space.html Additionally, please note that three "pilot" prefixes will be announced from this /8. The prefixes are: 185.0.0.0/16 185.1.0.0/21 185.1.24.0/24 They all originate in AS12654. The pingable addresses will be: 185.0.0.1 185.1.0.1 185.1.24.1 More information on this activity is available in the document "De-Bogonising New Address Blocks", which can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-351.html Kind regards, Andrea Cima Registration Services Manager RIPE NCC -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAk1Pu9kACgkQXOgsmPkFrjM9FgCgsaT8cFxK0YKTFUFzj41L0PQT N1AAoIgmL1zUY8JjkCSa05xt0t8oppgP =woX5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

RE: [ipv6-wg] RE: [address-policy-wg] IPv6 allocations for 6RD
by Wyatt Mattias Gyllenvarg 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

Hi We would like to weigh in here. We feel that it should be RIPEs policy to allocate ONE /32 to any LIR who requests it for 6rd. 6rd is the only way for us to reach all our residential customers. Especially those in Municipal Networks that are very slow to invest in their networks and often do not have the competence and time to impelment IPv6. Also, Cisco has not yet implemented even a small part of the protective mechanisms we rely on in IPv4 to secure our residential networks. Many of these features are required to meet the demands contracted with the customers. We cannot use native IPv6 until Cisco implements these features and we have tested and rolled them out on hundreds of switches. 6rd bypasses all these issues. IF we can get a /32 for that purpuse. -- Med Vänliga Hälsningar - Best regards Mattias Gyllenvarg Network Operations Center Bredband2 ---------------------- end of line ---------------------------

REMINDER; WAS Re: 2008-08 New Version and Draft Document Published (Initial Certification Policy for Provider Aggregatable Address Space Holders)
by Emilio Madaio 25 Feb '11

25 Feb '11

[Apologies for duplicates. Courtesy copy sent to Routing Working Group and RIPE NCC Services Working Group. Please direct feedback to the Address Policy Working Group mailing list.] Dear Colleagues, The new version of RIPE Policy Proposal 2008-08, "Initial Certification Policy for Provider Aggregatable Address Space Holders", was published on 9 February 2011. The time period for community review ends on 23 February 2011. Some feedback was sent to the Address Policy Working Group mailing list. However, to maintain the discussion, we strongly recommend that you share your ideas and comments and clearly let the community know if you: - Support the implementation of the proposal - Support the general principle of the proposal but would prefer another wording - Support the general principle with some details changed but agree to postpone this discussion until another stage of the policy proposal review. (This is an initial proposal that covers only PA resources. If the community supports extending certification to all resources, then another version of the proposal will be necessary.) - Do not support the proposal (please explain your motivations) You can find the full proposal at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2008-08 and the draft document at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2008-08/draft Please send an email with your comments to address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net by 23 February 2011.

Query for the RIPE NCC: Size of PIv4 assignments used for access networks
by Martin Millnert 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hi, I would like to request from the RIPE NCC an answer to the following query: What is the size, in number of addresses, of all PIv4 assignments that are (mostly) used for access networks? Access networks in this context means traditional ISP:s who let humans access the internet. I believe the RIPE NCC keeps documentation over what justifies an assignment, so I imagine it will be possible to come up with some kind of answer to this question even if it is outright impossible to answer based on data in the database. If it is indeed possible to answer the above question with some form of accuracy (+/- 50% or so: order of magnitude most important to get right), I would like to run the question also for PAv4. This is required data to reach some form of informed policy decision/consensus on the PIv4 / PIv6 discrepancy issue which has resurfaced. Regards, Martin

IPv6 PI resource question - Not for ISP but hosting
by Mathieu Paonessa 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

Hi All, I've been following the previous thread concerning IPv6 PI assignment but I'm running into a special case and need your input. As a LIR, I did send an IPv6 PI request for one of our customers few days ago and the hostmaster did point me to this previous thread saying that we are in the same case and that he may reject this request. The company requesting the IPv6 PI is a hosting company providing software as a service solution for its customers. All the infrastructure (servers, routers...) is owned by them. For security reasons, they chose to isolate each of their customers on a separate VLAN. Their customer don't have administrative access to the servers and just uses the software hosted on them for their CRM, extranet or other corporate applications. Would you consider this to be the exact same case as an ISP assigning an IP to a customer's CPE? I really don't see the point for such a company to become a LIR as they will only use those IPs for them. They also don't need more than a /48 as they are currently having about 50 customers. Regards, Mathieu Paonessa

IPv6 PI resource question!
by Yasen Simeonov(Neterra NMT) 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

Hi, please explain me the following case: There is a small company /ISP/ that wants PI IPs to be independent of upstream providers. The company would not make sub-allocation and will only provide its customers with addresses for Internet access, but these IPs will be the company's infrastructural addresses. The company will use DHCP pool to distribute the addresses to its customers, these will be its own infrastructure addresses and not to the customers /they may receive every time different addresses/. Can that company receive PI IPv6 considering the policy? Thanks, Yasen Simeonov -- Yasen Simeonov Network Management Team Neterra Ltd.

>> Correct. The idea is that one LIR PA block covers lots of customers. It's a matter of scalability... I would love to give every organization it's own block of addresses. If someone finds a way to make that scale please let us know. > > FWIW, LISP is attempting to do just that. I know. I *really* hope it will work and be accepted as a solution. I would love a situation where we don't have to worry about the future routing table size!!! Thanks, Sander
