Draft Policy ARIN-2014-19
New MDN Allocation Based on Past Utilization
Date: 16 December 2014
2014-19 New MDN Allocation based on Past Utilization
Problem Statement:
The previous MDN policy was too limiting in that a new MDN could only
qualify under immediate need. This was extended by ARIN-2013-8 where the
minimum allocation will now be assigned unless immediate need for more
can be demonstrated.
Unfortunately, this policy did not go far enough. There may be some
cases where there is a one year utilization history that is applicable
to a new MDN. For example, imagine a network that is divided into four
regions, each an MDN. Three of the four MDNs have been growing at a /20
per year. The fourth MDN has been growing at a /19 per year, it is over
80% utilized, and the region is too large. The region will be divided in
half, which half of the current customers and their addresses to be
migrated into a new MDN (Region 5). It is also anticipated that half of
Region 4's growth will be shifted to Region 5. With Region 4 and Region
5 each above 80%, both should qualify for subsequent allocations at half
of what was Region 4's growth rate.
Policy statement:
replace section 4.5.4 created by 2013-8:
Upon verification that the organization has shown evidence of
deployment of the new discrete network site, the new network(s) shall be
allocated the minimum allocation size under section 4.2.1.5 unless the
organization can demonstrate additional need using the immediate need
criteria (4.2.1.6).
with:
Upon verification that the organization has shown
evidence of deployment of the new discrete network site, the new
network(s) shall be allocated one of the following:
- the minimum allocation size under section 4.2.1.5
- more than the minimum if the organization can demonstrate additional
need using the immediate need criteria (4.2.1.6)
- a 3-month supply of address space may be requested if the new MDN can
show a demonstrated one-year utilization history.
Timetable for implementation: Immediate
