Hi Scott, Given that ARIN utilizes a sparse allocation strategy for IPv6 resources (in my organization’s case, we could go from a /32 to a /25 without renumbering), IMO it would not be unreasonable for the allocation to be adjusted down simply by changing the mask and keeping the /36 or /32 unallocated until the sparse allocations are exhausted. Any resources numbered outside the new /40 would need to be renumbered, to be sure, but that’s most likely less work than a complete renumbering.
That said, I’ll leave it up to Registration Services to provide a definitive answer. -C > On Fri, 9 Oct 2020, [email protected] wrote: > >> Hi All, >> >> I am in favor of this draft, and am curious as to how resource holders who >> were not dissuaded by the fee increase will be impacted by the policy >> change.
