Draft Policy ARIN-2014-7
Section 4.4 Micro Allocation Conservation Update
Date: 4 March 2014
Problem Statement:
Two networks interconnecting are generally considered to be private
peers. The current policy allows an IXP to receive a micro-allocation
with only two devices. Given IPv4 exhaustion and the growth of IXPs in
North America it is prudent to raise the minimum criteria so that
micro-allocation space is not wasted.
Policy statement:
Change the following paragraph in Section 4.4 from:
Exchange point operators must provide justification for the allocation,
including: connection policy, location, other participants (minimum of
two total), ASN, and contact information.
To:
Exchange point operators must provide justification for the allocation,
including: connection policy, location, other participants (minimum of
three total), ASN, and contact information.
Comments:
a.Timetable for implementation: Immediate
b.Anything else:
