Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2017-12: POC Notification and
Validation Upon Reassignment or Reallocation
AC Assessment of Conformance with the Principles of Internet Number
Resource Policy:
This recommended draft policy: (1) enables fair and impartial number
administration as it ensures that ARIN has the means to communicate
with organizations receiving reallocations or detailed reassignments,
and does so in a clear, complete, concise and unambiguous manner; (2)
is technically sound in that it supports ARIN’s ability to maintain
the unique registration of Internet number resources; and (3) has
community support.
Problem Statement:
Some ISPs assign individuals to be POCs for reassigned blocks without
consultation of the individual they are inserting into Whois. For
example, during the reassignment/reallocation process, some large
ISPs automatically create POCs from their customer’s order form. This
process is automated for many ISPs and therefore the resulting POCs
are not validated prior to being created in the ARIN Whois database.
This creates unknowing POCs that have no idea what Whois is or even
who ARIN is at the time they receive the annual POC validation email.
It can also create multiple POCs per email address causing that same
person to receive a multitude of POC Validation emails each year.
This policy proposal seeks to prevent the situation where a POC is
unwittingly and unintentionally inserted into Whois. Doing so will
reduce the significant amount of time that ARIN staff spend fielding
phone calls from POCs who have no idea they are in Whois.
The proposal will improve the overall POC validation situation, by
ensuring that all reallocation or detailed reassignment requests are
related to a pre-existing receiving organization with at least one
valid POC object, and by requesting that any other existing invalid
POC objects are validated.
Policy statement:
Insert one new section into NRPM 3:
3.7 POC Notification and Validation Upon Reassignment or Reallocation
When a request for reallocation or detailed reassignment is made to
ARIN, the receiving organization must already be in the ARIN database
and associated with at least one validated POC object. If there are
no validated POC objects associated with the receiving organization,
ARIN shall reject the request.
In addition to notifying the requester, ARIN will also notify, via
email, all POCs associated with the receiving organization, whether
the request was successful or not, and will request validation of any
invalid POC objects associated with the receiving organization.
Note: Simple reassignments are made without any linkage to an
organization or POC objects in the ARIN database.
