Draft Policy ARIN-2019-6: Longer Hold Time Requirements for 4.1.8 Recipients
Problem Statement:
The ARIN Board of Trustees has recently suspended issuance of reclaimed
number resources under the NRPM 4.1.8 waiting list policy due to
concerns about “flipping” behavior by recipient organizations.
The minimum hold time before (12 months) for recipients of number
resources received via 4.1.8 is currently no different than if they had
received it as an incoming 8.3 transfer. We believe that a longer hold
time of 24 months, while not a complete solution, will serve as an
incremental disincentive to flipping schemes while representing no
downside for organizations that are actually using said number resources.
Policy Statement:
Add the following bullet point under “Conditions on source of the
transfer” in sections 8.3 and 8.4:
The source entity must not have received a transfer, allocation, or
assignment of IPv4 number resources from ARIN under the Section 4.1.8
“Unmet Requests” waiting list policy for the 24 months prior to the
approval of a transfer request.
Comments:
Timetable for implementation: Immediate
