by Alun Davies 02 Oct '20

02 Oct '20

Dear colleagues, We recently processed our first IPv4 transfer on the basis of a Dutch court order. In this RIPE Labs article, we provide an overview of the case and look at how things will work moving forwards: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/ciaran_byrne/seizure-of-the-right-to-registra… Kind regards, Alun Davies RIPE NCC

WG: Question regarding RIPE-738 IPv6-Policy
by Kurt.Kayser＠bmi.bund.de 24 Jul '20

24 Jul '20

Dear RIPE members and community, We have come across a question of correct interpretation for "utilization" wthin´the current "IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy" RIPE-738 document: 5.2.2. Applied HD-Ratio The HD-Ratio value of 0.94 is adopted as indicating an acceptable address utilisation for justifying the allocation of additional address space. Appendix A provides a table showing the number of assignments that are necessary to achieve an acceptable utilisation value for a given address block size. [...] 10. Appendix A: HD-Ratio The utilisation threshold T, expressed as a number of individual /56 prefixes to be allocated from IPv6 prefix P, can be calculated as: T = 2((56-P)*HD) Thus, the utilisation threshold for an LIR requesting subsequent allocation of IPv6 address block is specified as a function of the prefix size and target HD ratio. This utilisation refers to the use of /56s as an efficiency measurement unit, and does not refer to the utilisation of addresses within those End Sites. It is an address allocation utilisation ratio and not an address assignment utilisation ratio. [...] The two underlined sentences seem to contradict each other. For a correct interpretation and calculation of the HD-Ratio/Utilization-Threshold (T) for IPv6-subsequent block eligibility, what is now correct "allocation" or "assignment" ? In the LIR-Portal there is an %-indication for "my own resources" which soley refers to assignments within a specific block. Allocations seem not to be considered. What is the correct way to calculcate the utilization? Best regards, on behalf Kurt Kayser _______________________ Kurt Kayser Konsultation im Auftrag des Referates SK 4 - Konzeption/ Local Internet Registry Bundesanstalt für den Digitalfunk der Behörden und Organisationen mit Sicherheitsaufgaben (BDBOS) Telefon: +49 (0) 1575-2634020 E-Mail: Kurt.Kayser(a)bmi.bund.de<mailto:Kurt.Kayser@bmi.bund.de> Internet: www.bdbos.bund.de<http://www.bmi.bund.de/>

LACNIC Inter-RIR Transfer Policy Implemented
by Nikolas Pediaditis 22 Jul '20

22 Jul '20

Dear colleagues, Yesterday, LACNIC announced that they have implemented their inter-RIR transfer policy: https://www.lacnic.net/4711/2/lacnic/lacnic-starts-processing-inter-rir-tra… This means that IPv4 addresses can now be transferred between organisations in the RIPE NCC and LACNIC regions (IPv6 and AS Numbers are excluded from LACNIC's inter-RIR transfer policy). You can find more information on inter-RIR transfers on our website: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-transfers-and-mergers/int… It's worth noting that an inter-RIR transfer request should always start with the offering party via the "source" RIR that the resources are currently registered with. Kind regards, Nikolas Pediaditis Registration Services & Policy Development Manager RIPE NCC

Re: [address-policy-wg] policy compliance dashboard

Lack of response to who? The NCC? What benefit is this meant to bring? I'd assume the NCC would already know about members who aren't paying their bills or otherwise in breach of contractual obligations. Members who "care" will probably deal with issues and those who don't care won't start caring, so I'm struggling to see what value this brings Regards Michele -- Mr Michele Neylon Blacknight Solutions Hosting, Colocation & Domains https://www.blacknight.com https://blacknight.blog / http://ceo.hosting/ Intl. +353 (0) 59 9183072 Direct Dial: +353 (0)59 9183090 ------------------------------- Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd, Unit 12A,Barrowside Business Park, Sleaty Road, Graiguecullen, Carlow, R93 X265,Ireland Company No.: 370845 On 13/05/2020, 10:41, "address-policy-wg on behalf of JORDI PALET MARTINEZ via address-policy-wg" <address-policy-wg-bounces(a)ripe.net on behalf of address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net> wrote: After my comment in the Addressing Policy meeting, I decided to go ahead with this email, maybe it can a provocation for some inputs in the open mic ...
