PDP Number: 2008-02 Assigning IPv6 PA to Every LIR I oppose this proposal on the grounds that it is already easy enough (almost automatic actually) for LIRs to receive an IPv6 allocation. I do not believe that it would remove real-world impediments to IPv6 deployment in a significant-enough number of LIRs to justify the risks associated with automatic one-size-fits-all allocations.

The eventuality of a LIR to move to a more expensive billing category as the result of an unsolicited allocation should be enough in itself to consider this proposal unacceptable. -- ciao, Marco
