New on RIPE Labs: IPv4 in the RIPE NCC Service Region - Three Years After Reaching the Last /8
by Mirjam Kuehne 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, In September 2012 the RIPE NCC reached its last /8 of available IPv4 addresses. This activated a new phase in the RIPE IPv4 policies, with each LIR now eligible to receive one final /22 allocation. In this new article on RIPE Labs we look at developments in IPv4 allocations and remaining addresses at the RIPE NCC in the three years since then: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/wilhelm/ipv4-in-the-ripe-ncc-service-region-t… Kind regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC

Policy Proposal Implemented: 2014-05, "Policy for Inter-RIR Transfers of Internet Resources"
by Nikolas Pediaditis 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce that we have implemented the policy proposal 2014-05, "Policy for Inter-RIR Transfers of Internet Resources". In accordance with the new policy, Internet number resources can be transferred between resource holders in the RIPE NCC service region and resource holders in the service regions of other Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). Inter-RIR transfers are possible between RIRs with compatible policies. Currently, ARIN and APNIC are the only RIRs that can perform inter-RIR transfers with the RIPE NCC: - IPv4 addresses can be transferred to/from the ARIN service region - IPv4 addresses and AS Numbers can be transferred to/from the APNIC service region The main web page on inter-RIR transfers with the supporting documentation and all related information to get you started can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/resource-transfers-and-mergers/tra… The archived policy proposal can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2014-05 The RIPE Document, "Policy for Inter-RIR Transfers of Internet Resources", is available at: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-644 Kind regards, Nikolas Pediaditis RIPE NCC Registration Services

by Marco Schmidt 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, Consensus has been reached on the proposal to amend RIPE Document ripe-650, "IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy". This policy change introduces new criteria for the evaluation of large IPv6 allocation requests: * Hierarchical and geographical structure * Segmentation for security * Planned longevity The existing requirements in the policy that stipulate the number of users a nd extent of the infrastructure remain unchanged. You can find the full proposal at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2015-03 The new RIPE Document is called ripe-655 and is available at: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-655 We estimate that this proposal will take about one week to fully implement. We will send another announcement once the implementation is complete and the new procedures are in place. Thank you to everyone who provided input.

2015-03 New Draft Document and Impact Analysis Published (Assessment Criteria for IPv6 Initial Allocation Size)
by Marco Schmidt 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

Dear colleagues, The draft document for version 2.0 of the policy proposal 2015-03, "Assessment Criteria for IPv6 Initial Allocation Size", has now been published, along with an impact analysis conducted by the RIPE NCC. 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. Some of the differences from version 1.0 include: - Introduction of new assessment criteria used to evaluate IPv6 allocations larger than a /29 - Related wording adjustments in the summary and rationale of the proposal You can find the full proposal and the impact analysis at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2015-03 and the draft document at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2015-03/draft We encourage you to read the draft document text and send any comments to address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net before 7 August 2015. Regards Marco Schmidt Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC

"last /8" allocation size - community feedback request before engaging PDP
by Radu-Adrian FEURDEAN 15 Sep '15

15 Sep '15

Hello everybody, Back at RIPE70 Elvis and me presented some ideas about revising the IPv4 allocation policy ( https://ripe70.ripe.net/presentations/93-Last-_8-allocation-size.pdf ) Before submitting the proposal we would like to have some community feedback on several aspects : 1. Separate pools or single pool a. have a "last /8 pool" which is 185.0.0.0/8 (strictly one /22 per LIR) and a "recovered space pool" containing all space received from IANA as "recovered and redistributed space" (for extra allocations) - APNIC-like separation of pools b. treat all addressing space available for allocation as a single pool 2. Conditions for allocation the first /22. - none (keep the situation as it is today - our preferred option) - something else (please detail) 3. Further allocation(s) (after the first /22) 3.1 introduce some minimum delay after the last allocation : 12 months (Elvis' favourite) ? 18 Months ? 24 Months (my favourite) ? More ? Less ? None ? 3.1.1 Does that mean one can get a new allocation every X months (LACNIC-style) while the stock lasts ? 3.2 Allocation size : /22 ? /23 ? variable depending on how much is available at the time of allocation, max /22, min /24 (which does imply a little more policy text in order to detail this) ? 3.3 Additional conditions 3.3.1 "LIR did not perform an outbound transfer" (do you think it would make sense to have this condition for the first allocation too) ? 3.3.2 Other conditions ??? We (me and Elvis) would like to hear your opinion (on the list or in private) on those subjects in order to be able to submit a (we hope stable) policy proposal before the end of the month. The arguments for each change in the policy will come at that moment (with the policy itself), and yes, we do have arguments for each option presented here :) Regards, -- Radu-Adrian FEURDEAN fr.ccs
