Hi Ondrej, I think you somehow answered yourself. It is non-acceptable usage (according policy), and not just in RIPE but also the other RIRs.
Also, and ISP/LIR will never get a /48, so I don’t see the case. If an ISP applies for an end-user prefix, again, they will break the policy. So in my opinion, this is out of the scope of this document. Let’s see if there are opinions on this … Regards, Jordi -----Mensaje original----- De: ipv6-wg <[email protected]> en nombre de Ondřej Caletka <[email protected]> Responder a: <[email protected]> Fecha: lunes, 3 de julio de 2017, 16:33 Para: <[email protected]> Asunto: Re: [ipv6-wg] IPv6 Prefix delegation BCOP version 3 is out... Hello Jan, all, Dne 28.6.2017 v 17:23 Jan Zorz - Go6 napsal(a): > Agree. Look like we are heading for draft v.4 ;) > > Let's collect more feedback and then fix the text... I have an amendment idea that I partially think it may have its place in the document. The thing is, many ISPs don't really understand the difference between resources (sub-)allocation and assignment. ISPs that are also LIRs just know they cannot assign more than /48 to a customer (end-site, to be precise ;) ). But if their customer is a small non-LIR ISP, who is requesting IP addresses for deploying IPv6 to its clients, they should not give them an assignment of shorter prefix but rather a suballocation or a aggregated assignment. If the small ISP only gets assigned /48 and tries to divide it to its customers, then not only is there little room for assigning "at least /56 to each customer" but it also is breaking the RIPE IPv6 policy by sub-assigning assignments. This is quite different situation from the IPv4 scenario, where small non-LIR ISP typically employ CGN, where it's completely valid to just use IP addresses assigned to the ISP itself. I already got a few questions concerning this topic. The questions are: 1. Is this topic important enough to be in this document? 2. Is this something RIPE-specific or is the situation in other RIRs similar? If you think it's worth it, I can try to draft some text around this topic. -- Ondřej Caletka CESNET ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.consulintel.es The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
