Do you have evidence to support any specific numbers being abandoned?


I have posted multiple times on this mailing list in the past about resource 199.248.255.0/24 being abandoned

This is a direct assignment that was made to Leatherman Tool Group back in 1994 to support a T1 from Internet Partners, Inc. It was abandoned a few years later when Leatherman switched to a different ISP. Internet Partners Inc. used it for several years until early 2000's when it got a /19. Since that time, over a decade, it's been unused.

The Tech org on it is set to

OrgTechName:   No, Contact Known
OrgTechPhone:  +1-800-555-1234
OrgTechEmail:  [email protected]

probably as a result of ARIN's POC validation policy. However, the Org abuse contact on it is set to:

OrgAbuseHandle: BCO-ARIN
OrgAbuseName:   O'Brien, Byron
OrgAbusePhone:  +1-503-546-9929
OrgAbuseEmail:  [email protected]
OrgAbuseRef:    http://whois.arin.net/rest/poc/BCO-ARIN


hcorp.com was abandoned when the company it owned went out of business. It was picked up by a domain speculator which is clearly FRAUDULENTLY responding to ARIN's email probes. As a result ARIN has
not expired THAT POC which it should have done years ago.

Have you presented that evidence to ARIN?


Yes. I told the hostmaster about this block early 2000's when I requested and obtained the /19 for Internet Partners, Inc. It was
listed as a "trade in" block as part of the justification to obtain
that /19 (which as a matter of fact, Internet Partners, Inc. returned the /19 a couple years ago)

It's easy to make claims like this because they are impossible to prove or 
disprove in most cases.


In this case it's certainly possible to prove since Leatherman Tools still exists as a company. A phone call to their IT group from ARIN would confirm it. A letter to their group would confirm it.

If you have actual evidence of specific abandoned resources to support your 
claim, please provide that data to ARIN. I'm fairly certain that they would act 
to reclaim abandoned addresses with sufficient evidence.


ARIN isn't interested in expending labor on /24's. The problem is there's a LOT of /24's out there. And I am quite sure a large number of them have "No, Contact Known" POC's as a result of validation.

The Legacy community mostly doesn't exist.

While there are some legacy orgs that have large amounts, and some
smaller ones that have small allocations, who are still using their numbers, 
there are a large number of small allocations out there that were abandoned 
years ago and ARIN has not reclaimed.

Maybe a majority of the vocal community does, but I doubt if you add in all 
members of the community who do not comment and all the members of the 
community that only hold legacy allocations, I suspect that might not be the 
case.  I think the legacy community is speaking volumes by not participating by 
commenting in this forum.

Thanks.

All of those stats are interesting but they are not what is important here.  
What is important is how many small Orgs that applied for the minimum 
allocation (as it was defined at the time of the allocation request) since ARIN 
was chartered were denied because of needs policy.

I don’t know what that number is but if it is greater than zero, it shouldn’t 
have happened!  ARIN’s Mission is to Advance the Internet, not to stifle it.

While there is clearly support by some for your position advocating needless 
number allocations, the majority of the community supports a review to insure 
that the allocations are actually advancing the Internet, and not just throwing 
numbers around to whomever asks, whatever their plans (or lack thereof).
