PDP Number: 2006-01 Provider Independent (PI) IPv6 Assignments for End User Organisations
Dear Colleagues
The text of the policy proposal 2006-01 has changed.
The new text has the following statement: "PI IPv6 Assignment Size to End User Organisations: The minimum size of the assignment is /48. However, a larger assignment (shorter prefix) can be provided if duly documented and justified." I am not sure what documentation and justification is required to qualify for a prefix shorter than a /48. What do I need to show the RIPE NCC before they would be able to assign my network a /47? It would be helpful to people considering requesting a PI IPv6 prefix and the RIPE NCC if the policy gave a clear statement of what is required. Also, the proposed text does not define a maximum size for an IPv6 PI assignment. When this is combined with a lack of definition for the qualification requirements it seems that a /32 of IPv6 PI could be assigned. Is that intended? Regards, -- Leo Vegoda IANA Numbers Liaison
