Excellent news!!! Very well done, everybody. The ability to move IPv4 addresses in and out of RIPE, APNIC, and ARIN, is a critical bootstrap phase as we transition to dual stack everywhere. David David R Huberman Principal, Global IP Addressing Microsoft Corporation

Hi Nikolas, Thank you for the work and this update. Could you or Marco perhaps provide a quick update on what the current status is in the inter-rir transfer status between APNIC and RIPE region, after the APNIC exec-board announced that it would hold transfers until further notice earlier this year ...

I had to look it up in the Apricot APNIC archive of 2015, but the actual bit that I am referring to is the following : http://youtu.be/2iKK_8iJU6E where Andrea Chima from RIPE NCC is explaining the inter-RIR transfer policy on stage ( around 1:17 ) ... And Paul Wilson from APNIC is starting at 1:24 upto 1:35 at the mic on the topic. Regards, Erik Bais

Hi Erik, The moratorium that the APNIC EC had set for inter-RIR transfers with the RIPE NCC has been officially lifted as of early September and it was announced during APNIC 40. The transcript of the APNIC 40 AMM session is available at: https://conference.apnic.net/data/40/10-Sept-AMM.txt Here is the quotation with regard to this matter: "Inter-RIR transfer policy: it was one of the items which the Executive Council decided previously. We had a moratorium for the inter-RIR transfer with RIPE NCC, but at this time in the Executive Council meeting on Monday, we decided to resolve to lift -- that means discontinue -- the temporary moratorium on the inter-RIR transfers with RIPE NCC. That is the reaction that RIPE NCC recently set the new inter-RIR transfer policy to require the recipient of the transfer from the other RIR region which has the demonstrated need policy. So that helped us to lift this moratorium. So now you can transfer the IPv4 address, if you need it, with someone in the RIPE NCC region." There is also the video version available (at 58:38): https://conference.apnic.net/40/program#sessions/amm Therefore inter-RIR transfers of IPv4 and ASNs are possible between resource holders in the APNIC and RIPE regions. Both RIRs will be cooperating in accordance with their policies. Kind regards, Nikolas Pediaditis RIPE NCC Registration Services

Nicholas, Thank you for the update. I hope you can clarify one thing for me, which I find the APNIC and RIPE communites' policies to be crystal clear about, but given the above quote as well as the phrasing in section IV of ripe-651 I am not so sure about the actual implementation. It's a simple yes or no question: If there is a transfer from the APNIC region to the RIPE region, will the RIPE region recipient required to «provide a plan to the RIPE NCC for the use of at least 50% of the transferred resources within 5 years»? Tore
Hi Tore, The answer to your question is No - for a transfer from APNIC to RIPE there is no need to provide a usage plan. But I would like to briefly explain this answer. There is no requirement in APNIC’s inter-RIR transfer policy for the counterpart RIR to adhere to needs-based policies: https://www.apnic.net/policy/resources#8.2. Inter-RIR IPv4 address transfers This is in contrast with ARIN’s inter-RIR transfer policy: https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#eight4 Therefore, as policies stand at the moment in all three RIRs, the needs-based evaluation is only for transfers from ARIN to the RIPE NCC.
but given the above quote as well as the phrasing in section IV of ripe-651
You are right and thank you for noticing this. The wording in section IV of ripe-651 was incorrect and gave the wrong impression. We updated section IV of the document to ensure it accurately reflects the policy text. The updated document will be published shortly and will be ripe-656.
