Elvis and All,
Regarding inter-RIR transfer with ARIN, Sec 8.4 of ARIN NRPM says,
8.4. Inter-RIR Transfers to Specified Recipients
Inter-regional transfers may take place only via RIRs who agree to the
transfer and share reciprocal, compatible, needs-based policies.
So, it means APNIC policy should be accepted as "reciprocal, compatible,
needs-based policies" by ARIN community
to keep Inter-RIR transfer between ARIN and APNIC.
> The policy proposal would remove DN for transfers between APNIC members.
Basically, no DN for Intra-RIR transfers and DN verified by the receiving RIR if
they have it in policy.
> It would also permit transfers from ARIN or RIPE NCC to APNIC (keeping the DN
in policy only if the sending RIR still has such a policy).
Can somebody participating ARIN discussion actively clarify whether this
idea is still reciprocal with ARIN NRPM
which requires demonstrated needs for both of Intra-RIR transfer and
Inter-RIR transfer?
