John, Looking back, I note that I have not made an ISP initial IPv4 request after 02/21/2017 when the policy was changed.
My previous ISP initial IPv4 requests asked for a 3 month, 12 month, and 18 month projection. I assumed this was to comply with "4.2.2.1.3. Three Months" that existed until 02/21/2017. Was this information used prior to 02/21/2017? Is this information used since 02/21/2017? Or is it ignored and collected only because the initial ISP IPv4 request uses the same form as the subsequent requests? "4.2.2.1.3. Three Months" disappeared on 02/21/2017 That version was modified by: 2015-2 2016-1 2016-4 2016-5 2016-6 2016-4 replaces section 4.2.2 text. It does not clearly state that it replaces, removes, or modifies any of the sub sections. 4.2.2.1. ISP Requirements 4.2.2.1.1. Use of /24 4.2.2.1.2. Efficient Utilization 4.2.2.1.3. Three Months 4.2.2.1.4. Renumber and Return 4.2.2.2. [Section Number Retired] I never noticed that the sub-section disappeared and assumed 2016-4 only changed the 4.2.2 text. When I voiced my support for the 2016-4 it was with the understanding that (at that time): An ISP without a direct IPv4 block would automatically qualify for a /24, (without needing to go to an upstream and get IPv4 space and pressing it into service). Furthermore an ISP without a direct IPv4 block could get more than a /24 so long as it was did not exceed a 90 day supply (for non-transfers) or a 2 year supply (for transfers). Staff understanding at the time, suggested the same conclusions. __Jason On Fri, Jan 26, 2018 at 12:34 AM, John Curran <[email protected]> wrote: > On 25 Jan 2018, at 2:20 PM, Jason Schiller <[email protected]> wrote: > > > John, > > So an ISP with no resources who wanted an initial /21 from ARIN > would be asked for some additional data to ensure that the /21 > was not more than an 90 day supply? > > > Jason - > > No, an ISP receiving its initial assignment would have to meet the > criteria in NRPM 4.2.2, and that does not specify any requirement regarding > 90 day supply. > > Note that as a practical matter the ISP would no IPv4 space from ARIN, > but instead go to the waiting list for an uncertain chance at receiving > some resources in the future. > > Thanks, > /John > > 4.2.2.
