[arin-announce] Whois-RWS Released 17 July 2010
ARIN is pleased to announce the release of Whois-RWS. ARIN’s Whois RESTful Web Service (Whois-RWS) is the directory service for accessing registration data contained within ARIN’s registration database. Whois-RWS provides several improvements over ARIN’s previous Whois service. Whois-RWS can easily be integrated into command line scripts similar to Whois or RWhois, or it can be accessed with a web browser. For those who rely on existing scripts and clients, ARIN will continue to maintain services for the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol on TCP/43. This is achieved by using a proxy service to translate traditional ARIN Whois queries into Whois-RWS queries. View service differences, a Whois-RWS FAQ, and API documentation at: https://www.arin.net/resources/whoisrws/ https://webdev.arin.net/resources/whoisrws/ Important details on other features in development can be found at: https://www.arin.net/features/ Please send any questions, comments, or issues to: hostmas...@arin.net.

[arin-announce] ARIN's Whois-RWS Directory Service Available 17 July
ARIN is pleased to announce that it will deploy its Whois-RWS service on 17 July 2010. We have corrected the issues that impacted the first release and are now able to bring you the following services that provide the general public with access to ARIN's registration data: * a RESTful Web Service (RWS) * a NICNAME/WHOIS port 43 service * a user-friendly web site (http://whois.arin.net) When using the Whois-RWS you will notice some differences in behavior for certain queries and corresponding result sets on the NICNAME/WHOIS port 43 service. The detailed documentation on these differences has been updated and is now available at: https://www.arin.net/resources/whoisrws/whois_diff.html ARIN’s Directory Service for registration data has used the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol since its inception. The limitations of the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol are well known and documented in RFC3912. Whois-RWS was created as an alternative to the ARIN Whois and will provide much richer functionality and capability to the community. ARIN continues to welcome community participation on the Whois-RWS mailing list, and we invite you to subscribe and share your experience and feedback about the new service: http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-whoisrws Regards, Mark Kosters Chief Technical Officer American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) ___ ARIN-Announce You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Announce Mailing List (ARIN-announce@arin.net).

[arin-announce] Closing Soon: Global IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey
ARIN encourages its community to participate in the 2010 Global IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey being conducted by GNKS Consult and TNO and sponsored by the RIPE NCC. The survey is now available at: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPv6deploymentmonitoring2010 The survey will close on 1 July 2010. All five Regional Internet Registries have committed to soliciting participation in this survey in order to compile the most complete global IPv6 deployment data possible. The survey results will provide a better understanding of current IPv6 deployment, and what still needs to be done to ensure the Internet community is ready for the widespread adoption of IPv6. ARIN/CAIDA performed a similar survey in 2008, and it was repeated in 2009 in the RIPE and APNIC region. The 2010 survey will allow for some comparison of progress, which will be extremely valuable in determining the necessary next steps. The goal is to establish a comprehensive view of present IPv6 penetration and future plans for IPv6 deployment. The survey is composed of 23 questions and can be completed in about 15 minutes. For those without IPv6 allocations or assignments, or who have not yet deployed IPv6, the questions will be fewer in number. Results of the IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey will be made public in the Fall. All participants that provide their name and contact information on the survey form will receive the draft survey analysis when available. Please also indicate if you are willing to share additional data with the TNO and GNKS Consult IPv6 Deployment Monitoring team. Any questions concerning the survey itself should be addressed to i...@gnksconsult.com.

[arin-announce] Whois-RWS Release Update
On 26 June, ARIN rolled out Whois-RWS. Unfortunately, we experienced a very significant increase in traffic after rollout which exceeded our load capacity and caused the new service to degrade to an unacceptable level. To ensure customers could continue to access ARIN's Whois data, we have reverted to the old service which degrades more gracefully under load.

[arin-announce] Maintenance Work Scheduled for Saturday, 26 June
On Saturday, 26 June 2010 ARIN will be conducting maintenance on back-end systems. The work will take place from 7:00 AM until approximately 9:00 AM EDT. ARIN will experience interruption of two external services while this maintenance is performed. For the duration, any mail sent to Registration Services (hostmas...@arin.net and reass...@arin.net) will be queued, and you will not be able to use your ARIN Online account to submit transactions. Once the systems are back online, queued mail will be processed, and you will regain use of your ARIN Online account. All other publicly available services (WHOIS, IRR, etc.) will not be affected by this outage.

[arin-announce] ARIN's RESTful Whois Directory Service Available 26 June
ARIN is deploying an improved Whois service called Whois-RWS on 26 June 2010. Included in the deployment are the following services that provide the general public with access to ARIN's registration data. * a RESTful Web Service (RWS) * a NICNAME/WHOIS port 43 service * a user-friendly web site (http://whois.arin.net) When using Whois-RWS you will notice some differences in behavior for certain queries and corresponding result sets on the NICNAME/WHOIS TCP port 43 service. These minor differences are documented at: https://www.arin.net/resources/whoisrws/whois_diff.html ARIN’s Directory Service for registration data has used the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol since its inception. The limitations of the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol are well known and documented in RFC3912. Whois-RWS was created as an alternative to the ARIN Whois and will provide much richer functionality and capability to the community. Whois-RWS can easily be integrated into command line scripts, or it can be used with a web browser, which makes it applicable for programmatic consumption and accessible for interactive use. ARIN will continue to maintain services for the NICNAME/WHOIS protocol on TCP/43. This is achieved by using a proxy service to translate traditional ARIN Whois queries into Whois-RWS queries. However, ARIN recommends use of the RESTful Web Service. Those who choose to use the Whois-RWS Proxy will find it has many features unavailable over the existing Whois service, including: * Support for new query types such as CIDR queries * Better feedback for ambiguous queries * More finely scoped record type queries * Options for NICNAME/WHOIS clients that re-interpret traditional parameters used by ARIN's service. * RESTful URL references, useful for embedding into documents and e-mail * Better grouping of record types and delineation of results Another major benefit is that data from ARIN’s registration database is distributed to the Whois-RWS servers many times throughout the day, versus the once-a-day update of ARIN’s previous Whois service. Changes will be reflected more quickly through Whois-RWS, so query results will be more current than the previous Whois service. ARIN continues to welcome community participation on the Whois-RWS mailing list, and we invite you to subscribe and provide feedback to: http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-whoisrws Regards, Mark Kosters Chief Technical Officer American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) ___ ARIN-Announce You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Announce Mailing List (ARIN-announce@arin.net).

No organization may receive more than 16 /24 equivalents under this section. Add the following to section 4 of the NRPM 4.11 Required utilization for subsequent allocation under section 4.10 No organization shall receive more than one allocation or assignment under section 4.10 unless all prior space issued under 4.10 meets the utilization requirements of this section. 1. The most recent 4.10 allocation/assignment must be at least 80% utilized. 2. All utilization must be permitted under section 4.12 3. All prior 4.10 allocation/assignments must be at least 90% utilized. 4.12 Permitted uses of allocations or assignments under section 4.10 No organization shall use space received under section 4.10 for any purpose other than as specified in this section 1. To provide the required public IPv4 address(es) for transitional technologies operated by the recipient organization. a. Large scale or Carrier Grade NAT b. NAT-PT c. DS-LITE/AFTeR d. DNS64 or other transitional DNS enablers e. etc. 2. For other transitional technologies not envisioned at the time of this proposal, but, in no case for general IPv4 addressing provided to customers. Rationale: The current terminology in section 4.10 is vague and could allow a variety of interpretations which could lead to allocations or assignments being made to ISPs intending to misuse the space for general deployment by using IPv6 overlay technologies as a IPv6 deployments requiring IPv4 space for transition. For example, the current policy could be interpreted to enable an ISP to require IPv4 addresses for all IPv6 customers to roll IPv6 out as 6rd to customers who would be otherwise unable to get IPv4 space. This is clearly outside of the original intent of the proposal which created 4.10 (6rd was not yet envisioned at the time that was written). This proposal seeks to clarify that intent and tighten up the requirements for organizations seeking to get space from this limited final resource so that it truly is available to facilitate transitional technologies. Timetable for implementation: immediate For reference, here is the current text of 4.10 4.10 Dedicated IPv4 block to facilitate IPv6 Deployment When ARIN receives its last /8 IPv4 allocation from IANA, a contiguous /10 IPv4 block will be set aside and dedicated to facilitate IPv6 deployment. Allocations and assignments from this block must be justified by immediate IPv6 deployment requirements. Examples of such needs include: IPv4 addresses for key dual stack DNS servers, and NAT-PT or NAT464 translators. ARIN staff will use their discretion when evaluating justifications. This block will be subject to a minimum size allocation of /28 and a maximum size allocation of /24. ARIN should use sparse allocation when possible within that /10 block. In order to receive an allocation or assignment under this policy: 1. the applicant

[arin-announce] Reminder: Global IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey
ARIN encourages its community to participate in the 2010 Global IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey being conducted by GNKS Consult and TNO and sponsored by the RIPE NCC. The survey is now available at: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPv6deploymentmonitoring2010 The survey will close on 1 July 2010. All five Regional Internet Registries have committed to soliciting participation in this survey in order to compile the most complete global IPv6 deployment data possible. The survey results will provide a better understanding of current IPv6 deployment, and what still needs to be done to ensure the Internet community is ready for the widespread adoption of IPv6. ARIN/CAIDA performed a similar survey in 2008, and it was repeated in 2009 in the RIPE and APNIC region. The 2010 survey will allow for some comparison of progress, which will be extremely valuable in determining the necessary next steps. The goal is to establish a comprehensive view of present IPv6 penetration and future plans for IPv6 deployment. The survey is composed of 23 questions and can be completed in about 15 minutes. For those without IPv6 allocations or assignments, or who have not yet deployed IPv6, the questions will be fewer in number. Results of the IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey will be made public in the Fall. All participants that provide their name and contact information on the survey form will receive the draft survey analysis when available. Please also indicate if you are willing to share additional data with the TNO and GNKS Consult IPv6 Deployment Monitoring team.

Reclamation Pool Upon adoption of this IPv4 address policy by the ICANN Board of Directors, the IANA shall establish a Reclamation Pool to be utilized post RIR IPv4 exhaustion as defined in Section 5. As soon as the first RIR exhausts its inventory of IP address space, this Reclamation Pool will be declared active. 2. Returning Address Space to the IANA The IANA will accept into the Reclamation Pool all eligible IPv4 address space that is offered for return. Eligible address space includes any addresses not previously designated for special use by an IETF published RFC explicitly offered for return to the IANA by the RIR to which the space is assigned or the registrant of record where no RIR holds authority. 3. Address Allocations from the Reclamation Pool by the IANA Allocations from the Reclamation Pool may begin once the pool is declared active. Aggregates in the Reclamation Pool may be divided on a CIDR boundary to the longest minimum allocation or assignment of any of the RIRs in order to complete these allocations. Addresses that are left over will be held in the Reclamation Pool until additional adjacent IP addresses can be returned to rejoin addresses on CIDR boundaries to meet minumum allocation requirements, or a minimum allocation unit is set that allows continued allocations from the pool. 4. RIR Eligibility for Receiving Allocations from the Reclamation Pool Upon the exhaustion of an RIR's free space pool, an RIR will become eligible to request address space from the IANA Reclamation Pool when it publicly announces via its respective global announcements email list and by posting a notice on its website that it has exhausted its supply of IPv4 address space. Exhaustion is defined as an inventory of less than the equivalent of a single /8 and the inability to further assign address space to its customers in units equal to or shorter than the longest of the RIR's policy defined minimum allocation unit. Any RIR that is formed after the ICANN Board of Directors has ratified this policy is not eligible to utilize this policy to obtain IPv4 address space from the IANA. 5. Reporting Requirements The IANA shall publish on at least a weekly basis a report that is publicly available which at a minimum details all address space that has been received and that has been allocated. The IANA shall publish a Returned Address Space Report which indicates what resources were returned, by whom and when. The IANA shall publish an Allocations Report on at least a weekly basis which at a minimum indicates what IPv4 address space has been allocated, which RIR received the allocation and when.

The survey is now available at: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IPv6deploymentmonitoring2010 The survey will close on 1 July 2010. All five Regional Internet Registries have committed to soliciting participation in this survey in order to compile the most complete global IPv6 deployment data possible. The survey results will provide a better understanding of current IPv6 deployment, and what still needs to be done to ensure the Internet community is ready for the widespread adoption of IPv6. ARIN/CAIDA performed a similar survey in 2008, and it was repeated in 2009 in the RIPE and APNIC regions. The 2010 survey will allow for some comparison of progress, which will be extremely valuable in determining the necessary next steps. The goal is to establish a comprehensive view of present IPv6 penetration and future plans for IPv6 deployment. The survey is composed of 23 questions and can be completed in about 15 minutes. For those without IPv6 allocations or assignments, or who have not yet deployed IPv6, the questions will be fewer in number. Results of the IPv6 Deployment Monitoring Survey will be made public in the fall. All participants that provide their name and contact information on the survey form will receive the draft survey analysis when available. Please also indicate if you are willing to share additional data with the TNO and GNKS Consult IPv6 Deployment Monitoring team. Any questions concerning the survey itself should be addressed to i...@gnksconsult.com.

[arin-announce] Help Determine Where ARIN Will be in 2012
Bring the ARIN meeting to your own backyard! ARIN is looking for organizations interested in sponsoring network connectivity for our 2012 Public Policy and Members Meetings. A quality network is critical to the success of the ARIN meeting, and by sponsoring you have a terrific opportunity to make ARIN XXIX or XXX a local event for you and your community! ARIN meetings have seen a healthy increase in remote participation, and we require a sturdy network as a backbone to our live webcasts, transcripts, and chat rooms to provide a level playing field for remote participants and attendees. About Network Connectivity Sponsorship: The network connectivity sponsor assists ARIN in determining the location of the meeting, and has the opportunity to highlight their support of the Internet community. ARIN requires its own wireless network at the meeting site, and we provide our own equipment and administration of the on-site network. We look to the network sponsor to provide us with both last mile connectivity and Internet transit. We require hotels that will allow us to install our own networking equipment and run our own wireless network. Network sponsors must provide at least 25 Mbit/s of unfiltered, uncapped Internet transit to the meeting venue. ARIN prefers to have both IPv4 and IPv6 transit; however IPv6 is not a requirement. The sponsor must provide either a /24 of IPv4 addresses or announce and route a /24 provided by ARIN. If a sponsor offers IPv6 transit, it must provide either a /48 of IPv6 addresses or announce and route a /48 that ARIN provides. Tested and verified connectivity must be delivered to the hotel at least one week prior to the meeting, preferably earlier. ARIN staff will arrive, several days prior to the meeting to begin setup. In addition, ARIN requires the network connectivity sponsor to provide whatever support, in terms of staffing and resources, is necessary before and during the meeting to ensure operational uptime and mitigate any problems that may arise with the connectivity. If possible, we also ask the network connectivity sponsor to provide two computers (laptops or desktops with monitor, mouse, and keyboard) and one network-capable printer for the ARIN Information Center. As an organization in our region, we invite you to sponsor an event or function at this important and exciting gathering of the Internet community. We would like to hold our Spring 2012 meeting in Canada, and our Fall 2012 meeting in the United States. Please note that ARIN’s Fall meetings are typically held back-to-back with NANOG meetings, requiring any potential sponsor to meet both ARIN and NANOG’s sponsorship requirements, as well as provide the necessary support and services for a longer time period. Benefits of Sponsorship: In addition to giving back to the community and contributing to a key part of ARIN’s mission through meeting network support, as this primary sponsor your organization will be prominently mentioned in all meeting materials (web and printed), be given the opportunity to make welcoming remarks during the meeting, receive free registrations for staff members, and possibly have your logo on the meeting give away. Additional available sponsorship opportunities include exciting and popular social events, live webcasts, and meals and refreshment breaks. To play a major role in these upcoming events and to help ARIN host its 2012 meetings, please respond to our event sponsorship invitation on or before Tuesday, 15 June 2010 by contacting Dé Harvey, ARIN's Meeting Planner, at dhar...@arin.net or by phone at 703-227-9878. You may also contact us using our web form, located at: https://www.arin.net/participate/meetings/sponsor.html For complete details regarding ARIN Meeting Sponsorship, please refer to the brochure on our website at https://www.arin.net/participate/meetings/sponsor.pdf.

[arin-announce] [Fwd: Policy Proposal 114: RFC1918 as initial ISP multihomed criteria]
The following is a new policy proposal that has been posted to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List for discussion on that list. Regards, Member Services American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) Original Message Subject:Policy Proposal 114: RFC1918 as initial ISP multihomed criteria Date: Fri, 07 May 2010 12:28:27 -0400 From: Member Services i...@arin.net To: arin-p...@arin.net ARIN received the following policy proposal and is posting it to the Public Policy Mailing List (PPML) in accordance with Policy Development Process. This proposal is in the first stage of the Policy Development Process. ARIN staff will perform the Clarity and Understanding step. Staff does not evaluate the proposal at this time, their goal is to make sure that they understand the proposal and believe the community will as well. Staff will report their results to the ARIN Advisory Council (AC) within 10 days. The AC will review the proposal at their next regularly scheduled meeting (if the period before the next regularly scheduled meeting is less than 10 days, then the period may be extended to the subsequent regularly scheduled meeting). The AC will decide how to utilize the proposal and announce the decision to the PPML. In the meantime, the AC invites everyone to comment on the proposal on the PPML, particularly their support or non-support and the reasoning behind their opinion. Such participation contributes to a thorough vetting and provides important guidance to the AC in their deliberations.

Rationale: There are times when I've come across an ISP network in which either their, or one of their ISP clients access networks will fit the 4.2.2.2 requirements based on addresses, but they utilize RFC 1918 space with numerous layers of NAT, with only a very small block of public address space from their upstream(s). In that case, to qualify under the multi-homed policy, the ISP (and/or its clients) would first have to renumber out of the private space into an upstream space, and then renumber again after receiving the allocation from ARIN. This brief amendment would alleviate the double renumbering, and conserve the human resources required by all parties involved. Although I've considered ideas on how the use of RFC 1918 space could be justified to ARIN, I feel that this could be hashed out on the list if the intent of the proposal is accepted by the community.

[arin-announce] [Fwd: Policy Proposal 113: IPv6 for 6rd]
The following is a new policy proposal that has been posted to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List for discussion on that list. Regards, Member Services American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) Original Message Subject:Policy Proposal 113: IPv6 for 6rd Date: Tue, 04 May 2010 15:15:05 -0400 From: Member Services i...@arin.net To: arin-p...@arin.net ARIN received the following policy proposal and is posting it to the Public Policy Mailing List (PPML) in accordance with Policy Development Process.

Upon receipt of a 6rd request, the minimum subnet required for the functionality of 6rd will be automaticlly granted and larger blocks will be granted based on justification. If IPv6 addresses are already allocated to the requestor then an effort will be made to give them an IPv6 allocation that is preferably contiguous to the prior existing one. The use of this address space will be used for 6rd and returned to ARIN when 6rd is no longer used on the network. Justification for use of IPv6 for 6rd will be reviewed every 3 years and reclaimed if it is not in use. Requestor will be exempt from returning all or a portion of the address space when 6rd is no longer used if they can show justification for need of the 6rd address space for other existing IPv6 addressing requirements. The 6rd prefix is an RIR delegated IPv6 prefix. It must encapsulate an IPv4 address and must be short enough so that a /56 or /60 can be given to subscribers. This example shows how the 6rd prefix is created based on a /32 IPv6 prefix using RFC1918 address space from 10.0.0.0/8: SP IPv6 prefix: 2001:0DB8::/32 v4suffix-length: 24 (from 10/8, first octet (10) is excluded from the encoding) 6rd CE router IPv4 address: 10.100.100.1 6rd site IPv6 prefix: 2001:0DB8:6464:0100::/56 This example shows how the 6rd prefix is created based on a /28 IPv6 prefix using one of several non-contiguous global address ranges: SP IPv6 prefix: 2001:0DB0::/28 v4suffix-length: 32 (unable to exclude common bits due to non-contiguous IPv4 allocations) 6rd CE router IPv4 address: 192.0.2.1 6rd site IPv6 prefix: 2001:0DBC::2010::/60 Rationale: 6rd is intended to be an incremental method for deploying IPv6 and bridge the gap for End Users to the IPv6 Internet. The method provides a native dual-stack service to a subscriber site by leveraging existing infrastructure. If an entity already has a /32 of IPv6 they can not use the same /32 for native IPv6 as they do for the 6rd routing and a separate minimum size of a /32 is required while a larger subnet like a /28 may be needed based on a non-contiguous IPv4 addressing plan.

Policy statement: [Replace 4.10 in whole with the following.] 4.10 Minimum Allocations or Assignments from Reserved Pools Upon execution of 10.4.2, ARIN will reserve pools of addresses unavailable to fulfill any requests except as detailed in this section. These pools will be utilized only for the minimal sized allocations or assignments for properly justified requests, regardless of the size of the request, under the following provisions, and only if ARIN is otherwise unable to fulfill the request in entirety. 4.10.1 Affiliation of Organizations To qualify under these sections organizations may be required to demonstrate to reasonable satisfaction that they are not affiliated with any other organizations for the intended purpose of qualifying under these sections where they would not otherwise. All other aspects of organization affiliations are not of specific concern to section 4.10. 4.10.2 Qualifying Organizations Request Fulfillment Upon approval of an otherwise unfulfillable request, ARIN will determine and notify the requester of section 4.10 applicability. Qualifying organization may receive only one request fulfillment per three month window from any of the pools defined in this section. Organizations may decline to receive resources for their requests under these sections without negating the request. Organizations who do receive resources under these sections will have their request considered fully fulfilled and completed. 4.10.3 Additional Efficiency Requirements Additional to all policy requirements for request justification and approval, the organization must not have inefficient utilization of resources equivalent in aggregate to the resource otherwise available to them via section 4.10 and all prior resources received under section 4.10 must continue to meet justification and initial requirements. 4.10.4 (Un)availability of Transfers Resources granted under section 4.10 will not be available for transfer under 8.3 and may be subject to additional scrutiny for transfers under 8.2 to ensure that the use of the resources continue to meet initial policy requirements. 4.10.5 Reserved Pools creation and Replenishment The following Pools will be created for reserved resources. Upon complete consumption of any defined pool resources, it will be replenished, if or when resources to do so become available, at the same ratio of initial reservation from the resources available via 10.4.2, but not to exceed the initial sizes. ARIN is encouraged to manage resources as they become available to anticipate this need and to attempt for maximum aggregation. Each of the pools, and preferably all, must be contained within a single prefix. 4.10.5.1 New Entrants Pool A pool, initially sized at /10

Individuals may nominate themselves for the Scholarship via email or online form. The Scholarship will be awarded annually to a recipient selected by a committee comprising representatives from the NANOG Steering Committee and the ARIN Board of Trustees. The selection committee will whimsically select the annual recipient exclusively in response to the question: What Would Jon Do? if he were asked to select a recipient. The successful applicant will be provided with transportation to and from the NANOG and ARIN joint meeting 3-8 October 2010, in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, and a reasonable (local host standard) allowance for food and accommodation. In addition, all fees for participation in both meetings' events will be waived. The final grant size is determined according to final costs and available funding. The chosen recipient will be advised at least 2 months prior to the fall meeting date. Applications from qualified individuals are now being accepted. The deadline for application is 1 June 2010, and the awardees will be informed by 3 July 2010. Please read full information about the scholarship at: http://www.nanog.org/scholarships/postel.php To apply, please complete the web-based application form that is linked from that page. Optionally, you may submit your application in PLAIN ASCII in the BODY of the message, not as an attachment nor as a Word document, PDF, or any other form, to postel...@nanog.org. Please be sure to include the following: * Full name and contact info * Your brief biography, including current and recent jobs held * A description of why you need and deserve this Scholarship to attend the NANOG and ARIN meetings * A description of how you plan to leverage your attendance at the meetings in your work * A brief abstract of a presentation you would give at the NANOG and/or ARIN meetings, if selected as a Scholarship winner Kind regards, -Rob Seastrom, on behalf of the Postel Scholarship Selection Committee ___ ARIN-Announce You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Announce Mailing List (ARIN-announce@arin.net).

[arin-announce] [Fwd: [arin-ppml] Policy Proposal 105: Simplified MA transfer policy] - new proposal
The following is a new policy proposal that has been posted to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List for discussion on that list. Regards, Member Services American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) Original Message Subject:[arin-ppml] Policy Proposal 105: Simplified MA transfer policy Date: Tue, 22 Dec 2009 14:30:43 -0500 From: Member Services i...@arin.net To: arin-p...@arin.net ARIN received the following policy proposal and is posting it to the Public Policy Mailing List (PPML) in accordance with Policy Development Process. This proposal is in the first stage of the Policy Development Process. ARIN staff will perform the Clarity and Understanding step. Staff does not evaluate the proposal at this time, their goal is to make sure that they understand the proposal and believe the community will as well. Staff will report their results to the ARIN Advisory Council (AC) within 10 days. The AC will review the proposal at their next regularly scheduled meeting (if the period before the next regularly scheduled meeting is less than 10 days, then the period may be extended to the subsequent regularly scheduled meeting). The AC will decide how to utilize the proposal and announce the decision to the PPML. In the meantime, the AC invites everyone to comment on the proposal on the PPML, particularly their support or non-support and the reasoning behind their opinion. Such participation contributes to a thorough vetting and provides important guidance to the AC in their deliberations.

Mergers and Acquisitions ARIN will consider requests for the transfer of number resources in the case of properly documented mergers and acquisitions. ARIN will maintain an up-to-date list of acceptable types of documentation. In the event that number resources of the acquired/merged organization(s) are no longer efficiently utilized at the time ARIN becomes aware of the transaction, through a transfer request or otherwise, ARIN will work with the resource holder(s) to return or aggregate resources as appropriate via the processes outlined in sections 4.6, 4.7, or 12 of the NRPM. Add In addition to transfers under section 8.2, at the beginning of section 8.3. Transfers to Specified Recipients. Rationale: This policy proposal: attempts to simplify the MA transfer section of the NRPM; eliminates the ambiguity discussed at the ARIN Public Policy Meeting (PPM) in Dearborn by clarifying that transfers can occur under either 8.2 or 8.3 independently; and attempts to address the concerns raised in the staff policy implementation report at the Dearborn PPM. The idea here is to simply say that ARIN will allow MA transfers, and to require the return of any address space that is not efficiently utilized after the acquisition. Preferably that would happen voluntarily under the policies of NRPM 4.6 (Amnesty), but it also leaves the door open for ARIN to revoke space under NRPM 12 (Resource Review) if necessary. This also should dramatically increase the completion rate for transfer requests, as the evaluation of whether space is efficiently utilized after the transfer can occur in parallel, completely independently of the transfer request, and can continue even if the transfer request is abandoned. The bulleted lists of acceptable documentation removed from the NRPM should be maintained by ARIN elsewhere on the website, such as at https://www.arin.net/resources/request/transfers.html Timetable for implementation: Immediate ___ PPML You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List (arin-p...@arin.net).

[arin-announce] Consultation Closed: Changes to ARIN Resource Revocation Procedures
ARIN thanks the community for its input regarding changes to ARIN’s Resource Revocation procedures. Based on the feedback received, ARIN will modify its current revocation procedures to reduce the amount of time an organization has to pay its overdue fees to six months from the current twelve months. Six months after the date of revocation, the resources will be considered permanently revoked. If an organization attempts to submit payment after the six-month limit, they will be required to reapply for the number resources. If approved, they could receive the same resources if still available, or new ones if not. Additional fees may apply for resource reinstatement following revocation.

Policy statement: Strike NRPM sections: 6.2.3, 6.2.4, 6.2.6-6.2.9, 6.4.3, 6.4.4, 6.5.1-6.5.5, 6.5.8, 6.7, 6.10 Strike NRPM section 6.9 paragraph 2. Replace 6.2.5 as follows: 6.2.5 Allocate and Assign For the purposes of NRPM section 6, allocate and assign are synonymous. Both terms describe any or all use identified in section 2.5. Replace 6.5.7 with: 6.5.7. Existing IPv6 address space holders Organizations that received IPv6 allocations under the previous IPv6 address policy are entitled to either retain those allocations as is or trade them in for an allocation under 6.5.9. Add NRPM section 6.5.9 as follows: 6.5.9 IPv6 Allocations 6.5.9.1 ARIN shall allocate IPv6 address blocks in exactly and only the following denominations: /56, /48, /40, /32, /24 6.5.9.2 No utilization-based eligibility requirements shall apply to IPv6 allocations. 6.5.9.3 ARIN shall accept registration of no more than one address block of each size for any single organization. 6.5.9.4 ARIN shall allocate IPv6 addresses from pools such that the identity of the allocation pool serves to classify the expected size of allocations within. ISPs may use that classification to filter or otherwise manage their routing tables. 6.5.9.5 For each allocation size, ARIN shall further manage the allocation pools such that the pool identity serves to classify whether or not the registrant is Multihomed. 6.5.9.6 ARIN shall offer addresses from pools classified as multihomed only to organizations which ARIN has verified are multihomed on the public Internet per NRPM 2.7. 6.5.9.7 Where an organization ceases to be Multihomed it shall surrender all address allocations from within pools classified as multihomed within 3 months. Rationale: See the implementation notes section below for what should replace utilization-based eligibility. The existing IPv6 allocation policy under section 6.5 makes a number of unproven assumptions about how IPv6 allocations will work. Unproven: we can make a reasonable guess about how many IPv6 subnets an organization will need at the outset when they first request IP addresses. When in all of human history has this ever proven true of any resource? Unproven: with sparse allocation, we can allow organizations to expand by just changing their subnet mask so that they don't have to announce additional routes into the DFZ. This claim is questionable. With sparse allocation, we either consume much larger blocks that what we assign (so why not just assign the larger block?) or else we don't consume them in which case the org either has to renumber to expand or he has to announce a second route. Worse, because routes of various sizes are all scattered inside the same address space, its impractical to filter out the traffic engineering routes. Unproven: we can force organizations not to disaggregate for traffic engineering purposes. Neither

Minimum allocation: In general, ARIN allocates IP address prefixes no longer than /23 to ISPs. If allocations smaller than /23 are needed, ISPs should request address space from their upstream provider. When prefixes are assigned which are longer than /20, they will be from a block reserved for that purpose whenever that is feasible. And Replace the contents of section 4.2.2. Initial allocation to ISPs: 4.2.2.1. Use of /24 The efficient utilization of an entire previously allocated /24 from their upstream ISP. 4.2.2.2. Efficient utilization Demonstrate efficient use of IP address space allocations by providing appropriate documentation, including assignment histories, showing their efficient use. ISPs must provide reassignment information on the entire previously allocated block(s) via SWIP or RWHOIS server for /29 or larger blocks. For blocks smaller than /29 and for internal space, ISPs should provide utilization data either via SWIP or RWHOIS server or by using the table format described in Section 4.2.3.7.5. 4.2.2.3. Three months Provide detailed information showing specifically how the initial allocation will be utilized within three months. 4.2.2.4. Renumber and return ISPs receiving an initial allocation smaller than /20 must agree that the newly requested IP address space will be used to renumber out of the current addresses which will be returned to the assigning organization within 12 months. ISPs receiving an initial allocation equal to or larger than /20 may wish to renumber out of their previously allocated space. In this case, an ISP must use the new prefix to renumber out of that previously allocated block of address space and must return the space to its upstream provider. 4.2.2.5. Replacement initial allocation Any ISP which has received an initial allocation, or previous replacement initial allocation, smaller than /20 who wishes to receive additional address space must request a replacement initial allocation. To receive a replacement initial allocation, an ISP must agree to renumber out of and return the existing allocation in it's entirety within 12 months of receiving a new allocation and provide justification for the new allocation as described in section 4.2.4. Rationale: This policy proposal fundamentally changes and simplifies the initial IPv4 allocations to ISPs by doing the following: 1) Makes moot whether the requesting ISP is multihomed or not, with this policy change all initial ISPs request under the same minimums. 2) Lowers the minimums, making it easier for smaller ISPs to qualify for direct allocations from ARIN. 3) Reduces fragmentation of the allocated IPv4 pool by forcing smaller ISPs who do qualify under the minimum to return the small allocation when they outgrow it.

ARIN is seeking community input about potential changes to the RSS feed that provides a daily report of address space returned to and issued by ARIN. ARIN wants to ensure the data in this RSS feed is provided in the manner most useful to the community. To understand the data currently provided in this RSS feed, it is important to define the terminology used to describe the different ways number resources are recovered by ARIN. Revoked address space is space that ARIN takes back from a registrant for non-payment of registration fees. Reclaimed address space is space that ARIN takes back in response to confirmed fraudulent activity by the registrant or someone else (i.e. hijacking), OR because ARIN has found that the address space is not being used by the original registrant (out of business) and there is no evidence that the business was acquired or merged. Returned address space is space that is voluntarily returned to ARIN by the registrant because it is no longer in use and/or needed. Each time that ARIN recovers an address block (regardless of the recovery method) it is placed into hold status for one year to allow adequate time to clear filters. Currently, this RSS feed is a daily e-mail update listing the recovered address space (without attribution to the recovery method) that has been released from hold status and is available for re-issue to a new customer. The RSS feed also lists all address space issued by ARIN that day. Recently, there has been discussion by the community about: 1. Adding additional data to the RSS feed, including listing the address space recovered and put into hold status each day 2. Enhancing the current RSS feed format and associated report that goes out over a distribution only e-mail list using a XML format. Please note that there may be some controversy associated with adding address space to the RSS feed on the day it is recovered by ARIN. Some individuals have expressed concern that advertising the date when space is recovered would give a heads up to the “bad actors” and make the space a target for abuse. ARIN welcomes your feedback on each of these topics and will use your input to determine our course of action. The current process for subscribing to the RSS feed and additional information about it can be found at: https://www.arin.net/participate/mailing_lists/rss.html ARIN is seeking comments regarding this proposed change through the ARIN Consultation and Suggestion Process, available at: https://www.arin.net/participate/acsp/index.html Please submit your comments to the arin-cons...@arin.net. You can subscribe to the arin-consult mailing list at: http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-consult Discussion on arin-cons...@arin.net will close on 6 November 2009 at noon EDT.
