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.
