Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2020-7: 4.4 gTLD Micro-allocation Clarification

 

AC Assessment of Conformance with the Principles of Internet Number Resource 
Policy:

 

The draft Policy ARIN-2020-7 is fair, impartial ,technically sound and 
supported by the community. This draft policy removes “new” from “new GTLD” in 
NRPM Section 4.4 in an effort to reduce confusion for those who may view the 
policy itself as “new” when it is from 2012.

 

Problem Statement:

 

As stated in NRPM section 4.4: Micro-allocation

 

ICANN-sanctioned gTLD operators may justify up to the equivalent of an IPv4 /23 
block for each authorized new gTLD, allocated from the free pool or received 
via transfer, but not from the above reservation.

 

The term “new gTLD” is confusing and refers to all gTLD’s that have been 
created since June of 2012.

 

Policy statement:

 

ICANN-sanctioned gTLD operators may justify up to the equivalent of an IPv4 /23 
block for each authorized gTLD, allocated from the free pool or received via 
transfer, but not from the above reservation.

 

Comments:

 

This proposal stems from a suggestion in the January, 2019 Policy Experience 
Report.

 

Timetable for Implementation: Immediate
