No.

This would represent a form of disenfranchisement penalizing
active members of the community and acting as a brake against
joining the AC. Worse, it would encourage people to funnel
proposal ideas though others and create a whole pile of its
own political agita.

Re: [arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2022-3: Remove Officer Attestation Requirement for 8.5.5

2022-09-12 Thread Joe Provo


Hey folks,

We haven't had any feedback here after the publication
of the Staff & Legal review as noted in Matthew's message 
below.  Given that it speaks directly to concerns raised 
here on PPML, we need community feedback here to confirm
*our* impressions.

Please let us know!

"The only difference" is doing a LOT of heavy lifting here. 
Number resources are precisely for operating networks. These
integers have no reason to otherwise be tallied.

Registration rights are not investment vehicles.

We've been trying to pull the isolated/dangling definitions and 
consolidate them into Section 2. Maybe "transferrable number 
resources" could have a broad definition there, and would provide 
up-front clarity as to what is and is not transferrable under 
policy at a given point in time?

Point is, the shepherds could trim the section 10 bit and move it 
along if non-substantive changes to section 10 is really a problem.

That is what is corrected in this policy: 

Section 2.X Autonomous System Number (ASN)

An Autonomous System Number (ASN) is a unique identifier which represents a
collection of network resources operated under a common routing policy
administration, known as an autonomous system.

I fail to see how the proposed definition in section 2 is anything but 
more precise than the existing Section 10 text, which doesn't *define*
anything, merely introduces the acronym with the text "Autonomous System
Numbers (ASNs)". In most all contracts and technical documentation, one
introduces an acronym once, at its earliers use, hence including the 
trivial editorial change from "Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs)" to
"ASNs" after the definition (again, above) is established.

IMO, if we have set ourselves up with a system where such a trivial
change requires massive effort across all the RIRs we made a mistake.
Either the meat of [our] section 10 should be a separate document 
entity, incorporated by reference rather in the body, or we should 
assert that section 10 should never be touched regardless of how 
illogical it makes the rest of the document.

The AC shepherds have the pen, so they certainly can sever the trivial
change to section 10 if it is truly believed to trigger the End Times.

Cheers!

Hey folks,



This will be presented at the PPM as a recommended policy - if there's
any thoughts folks want to get out in front of the community ahead of
the meeting, here's the thread...

To be clear, I've raised the definition use since ARIN45, 
as I did during that meeting and on other occasions (see
for example the minutes from the AC meeting 15 Oct 2020).

On the 19 Nov meeting to which you refer, I requested that 
staff read into the record the definition of fairness as is
in the NRPM, specifically naming the section. That definition
is clearly seen currently as Section 6.3.6:
https://www.arin.net/participate/policy/nrpm/#6-3-6-fairness

I'll point out that this is likelye moot as in the 12 Dec 
minutes CT pointed out that he was operating not from the 
NRPM definition "but rather as 'general equity.'"

Cheers,

Joe

Brian,

The image in question is in the header of Section 2. 
If you have a suggestion to improve the RIR definition in
Section 2.2 (

SGTM but there was previous discussion indicating people didn't want 
to trim the references to consequences [see August thread and ARIN46
discussion].  Personally, I do not believe it belongs in the NRPM but
am amenable if the community thinks it does.

Hopefully this will trigger some more feedback from the community. :-)

Cheers!

Joe

In the interest of both simplification and striving to eliminate
the fee or contract details within policy, I'm a fan of Mr Woodfield's
suggestion for simple generalization. What do folks think about:

2.X Registration Services Agreement (RSA)

Number resources allocated or assigned by ARIN under these policies are
subject to a contractural agreement between ARIN and the resource holder. 
Throughout this document, any and all forms of this agreement, past or
future, is simply referred to as the Registration Services Agreement 
(RSA).  This agreement covers terms, rights, responsibilities and
conditions of service; failure to adhere to the RSA may result in
revocation of number resources.

Joe

Speaking only for myself, not any employer or any elected 
capacity, I oppose the policy precisely because it is a 
one-time action for one set of entities and (by its own 
logic) still leaving another set of affected entities [as 
noted by Andrew Dul 22 Oct) in the current state. I 
personally expected the community to respond to ARIN-2019-16 
in some way, but as a more structural approach to wait-list 
handling, not a one-time action for a set of parties.

Policies change, sometimes they apply going forward and other
times they apply universally. The wait list has changed and 
will change in future in response to the needs of the community; 
it has never carried any guarantee or lack of risk. 

Cheers,

Joe

[snip]

In the part you didn't quote, I pointed out operators have choice.
Operators may foolishly choose to squat, and there may be a circle 
of operators who share what space they squat, infecting others with 
that bad idea. Or it may be job hoppers who carry the contagin to
new environments.  But it is in no way "industry standard" and to
perpetuate that phrasing is in itself supporting it, even without
doing it yourself.

PPML isn't the the place for it, but naming and shaming elsewhere
(nanog?) could be an interesting exercise.

Since this list is archived and referenced, rather than 
let that sit in silence, personally I have to note 
- there is no such thing as "industry standard squat space".
- any person who decides to deploy numbering outside the 
  mutually-agreed registry system (squat on space) signs up 
  their organization for future headaches.

I had thought I drew attention to this presentation from Austin 
NANOG, but that was on the nanog list. Fun fact - the USG considers 
squatting on their space theft of service! And they'd love to hear
from folks when it is encountered.

Unfortunately the presentation wasn't
recorded, but take a gander at slide 4 of
https://pc.nanog.org/static/published/meetings/NANOG77/2108/20191028_Elverson_Your_As_Is_v1.pdf
   

and useful contacts are on slide 11 and 18.

IMO, not speaking on behalf of any other person or organization,
etc etc.

Cheers,

Joe

If this were in Definitions or anywhere specifying who may

concern. But this is scoped within 8.2 and as such is solely
regarding M Are natural persons outside the ARIN service
region being the surviving, asset-golding legal entity

If we borrow Mr Hannigan's suggestion, does this work:

"M activity resulting in the surviving legal entity which
 is not formed in the ARIN service region will be permitted 
 to hold only their existing number resources directly 
 allocated or assigned by ARIN."

Per this and additional private commentary, I'd suggest we 
keep it simple to speak directly to the matters within the 
section where the change is made (8.2 transfers) and therefore 
add the following to section 8.2:

"M activity resulting in the surviving legal entity which 
 is not incorporated in the ARIN service region will be 
 permitted to hold only their existing number resources 
 directly allocated or assigned by ARIN."

Would that address the desire for clarification?

Do the previous existing supporters, detractors or those 
who held neutral opinions have further input?

Thanks!

Joe

Re: [arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2019-12: M Legal Jurisdiction Exclusion

2019-10-09 Thread Joe Provo


 

Hello again folks,

After digesting the Staff & Legal Review (
https://www.arin.net/participate/policy/drafts/2019_12/#slr ),
an issue was raised at the last AC meeting regarding the clarity 
of the proposal. The specific concern is that while the policy 
speaks to the surviving entity's ability to hold number resources, 
and the existing staff action is to allow such entities to retain 
resources, the lack of stipulation that new resources cannot be 
obtained introduces ambiguity.

So would the parties interested in ARIN-2019-12 please indicate
if they feel if the policy is:
- clear as-is and doesn't need adjustment
- in need of clarification in this regrd
- in need of clarification in this and additional regards

...or, as usual, whatever else! :-)

Thanks in advance for more input!

Joe

[snip]

I fail to understand bringing this back into it. You were flatly
asked when the TAL issue is resolved, would this policy still 
be needed and your answer was yes, because of desire [citation
https://lists.arin.net/pipermail/arin-ppml/2019-April/066381.html].
(On the topic, I'm interested to know if we've seen an uptick 
since the [recent] routinator update allowing for an easier 
acceptance of the TAL? Personally, I want to solve the RPKI
roadblocks, not create policy to allow the to remain.)

I do not believe whim is the basis of sound policy, and barring 
the actual subset of issues regarding M there has been no 
articulation of why non-scarce resource mobility is a Good Thing 
for the Internet as a whole. Registry shopping is counter to 
ICP-2 and I assert a Bad Thing for the Internet as a whole.

In previous threads, you seem to indicate you'd want to shop for 
services, which implies a desire for the numbers realm to have a 
split similar to that of registry & registrar in the domain space. 
Folks can draw their own conclusions regarding how well that has 
worked, but I think should the bad cases we've seen in the domain
space (bad actors, bankruptcies, etc) be inflicted on the numbers 
space, global Internet stability would suffer.

Setting aside that non-existent split, if simple & open (R,N)IR 
shopping existed, TI expect we'd see:
- *IR capture (nation-states, bad actors, industry niche)
- resources purposefully migrated to *IRs with which legal 
  interactions are "challenging", enabling criminal behavior
- heavier -> total regulation
- proliferation of new NIRs specifically to undermine the 
  bottom-up, collaborative principles.

Thanks,

Joe

Hey everyone else - again this one hasn't seen much discussion.
Is it the possible complexity of interaction with other M and

Hey folks,

Like several other proposals, we seem to have been
hit by the summer slump considering the following.

There was a single posted objection, and it isn't
clear if lack of activity stems from 
- uninterest
- interest in seeing 2019-13 move instead
- interest in seeing 2019-4 move instead
- something else

Thanks in advance for more input!

Strongly oppose.

We all see things through our own lenses, so I'm not
suprised by the position of economists. I am troubled
by some folks using the phrase "distort the market"
to describe tge normal functioning of the RIR, as if
there is some form of *primacy* to be placed on the 
transfer market. We should recall that it
exists solely as a tool for resource redistribution
with registry accuracy. It exists to serve us not
the other way around.

I am suprised to hear "those are scarce, these aren't" is difficult?

There may be a discussion to be had when you speak of shoping for 
*services*, but every time this comes up you sidestep the difference
of that and shopping for *policies*, which is expressly the point 
the previous poster made.

Yes, as the conservative resumption of distribution is to the 
benefit of the community at large.

I also look forward to near-future policy proposals refining
the unmet requests policy.

Firstly: an odd interpretation for a proposal that expressly 
seeks to put more entities into ARIN's sphere, not remove them.

Secondly, the apparent timing is only due to them being accepted
at the May AC meeting. If you look at the actually submission 
dates ( https://www.arin.net/participate/policy/proposals/ ) 
you'll see they were during the ARIN43 meeting.

I've always operated with the definition that a hijack 
is the purposeful subversion of the registrant's intended 
use of the registered prefix. (This proposal and thread 
is about BGP hijacks, but we also see registry hijacks 
and other forms.)

A key problem in determining intent is that its publication 
is not mandatory (and that publication itself can be 
subverted, but that's not the flavour of hijack at hand). 
We have some organizations who positively assert their 
intent as doing so maximizes their relaible reachability, 
but there's a great many who do not, out of ignorance or 
desire.

As a registrant, if I'm using this or that service which 
moves packets to my prefix (be it from my own ASNs, 
announcing it by my ISPs ASN, filtering through a DDoS 
scrubber, announced by my colo provider, etc) is still 
correctly registered to me, not that provider.

If I'm smart, I will publish my intended announcement 
sources in
- OriginAS in my whois
- RPKI ROAs
- IRR data

...and then anyone on the 'net can see if a given 
announcement (or their changes) is intented and expected
or not. 

Cheers,

Joe

When I voted this out of scope for the NPRM, I said "I wish
we were an enforcement entity, but we're not". Please do not
conflate complaints on the grounds of the PDP and NRPM scope,
ARIN's historical role, or ARIN's current mission, or ARIN's
scope of operations with "support" of hijacking.  

But just because we've been down this road several times 
before, doesn't mean it isn't work seeing how the world has
changed or if there isn't a new path to test.  But as I've 
repeatedly stated, my opinion is merely that this (PDP) is 
the wrong lever to pull to acheive the goal.  

The correct one is the ACSP, which is used *all the time* 
for handling changes on the operational practices of ARIN. 
If folks chiming in here are unfamiliar, they should visit 

https://www.arin.net/participate/community/acsp/

and browse the many open and closed suggestions and consultations
which reflect the non-registry-policy concerns, suggestsions
and interests of the ARIN community.

That said, I think the mechanics propsed are deeply flawed
especially the entire "consultants to handle cases" stuff.
I'd recommend a less strict formulation of the whole thing 
for an ACSP submission.

No one says that, and your assertion that people are "with us 
on this specific formulation of this proposal or obviously support 
all forms of abuse" is both offensively polarizing and wildly 
incorrect. Existing process doesn't say that. Again, it is IMO 
outside the scope of policy, and handling such is covered under 
item 4 of the first paragraph of 
https://www.arin.net/reference/tools/fraud_report/

"This reporting process is to be used to notify the American 
 Registry for Internet Numbers, Ltd. (ARIN) of suspected Internet 
 number resource abuse [...] or (4) hijacking of number resources 
 in ARIN's database."

It seems that underlying the proposal is some form of unstated
dissatisfaction with that process, or the public reporting of 
results available on
https://www.arin.net/reference/tools/fraud_report/results/

Perhaps there's something specific you can cite? Or that you'd 
be wanting to see more detail for some of the issues? Or that 
the actions don't go far enough?

Since you aren't taking this through the Global Policy process,
you have chosen to work within the vagaries of different regional 
processes, which exist as a natural consequence of Global Policy 
ICP-2. I know you're specifically frustrated with these regional 
variances, but I'd caution you to reflect upon the the floor 
discussion from APNIC47 and overall reception for APNIC-prop-126 
before indicating that regions who operate differently are 
somehow "less credible".

Flatly, I see this as an assertion that ICP-2 doesn't apply 
in your situation because it happens to be inconvenient to
work through the bottom-up process appropriate for each region. 

Again, the scope matter for this proposal is now with the board
but IMO *all* of this is outside the PDP as it is ARIN business
operations.  

Cheers,

Joe

"Distribution function" is indeed merely agreeing that the data 
recorded in the registry is accurate. There's no dibursement of
anything. When we bought our house and land, the registry of 
deeds was similar only involved in verifying that the transfer 
from the previous holders to us was a valid contract within the
scope of its operations (the state in which we live). When a 
neighbor was doing a construction project and we had to go block
their heavy equipment, the registrar of deeds sure didn't come
and settle the dispute. We went down, got the county map and 
they agreed. if they hadn't, law enforcement and courts would 
have been the next step.

This, like all Internet analogies, is poor; my thrust is that rfg's
is worse. To parallel ARIN with a transportation agency's "line 
drawing" and officials embued with law enforcement is wildly off 
track.

I invite you to review the RSA FQA (
https://www.arin.net/about/corporate/agreements/rsa_faq/ ) where
this is specifically addressed under the question "The RSA has 
limited ARIN's authority to modify the agreement without prior 
consent, as described in section 1(d)(the same authority was in 
an unnumbered paragraph previously).  What is the change about?"

No, I'm saying this is pointles as the ARIN NRPM (as driven 
through the PDP) is not the place to speak to ARIN legal 
agreements ([L]RSA) or business practices.  But that is now 
up to the BoT to decide WRT this being "in scope" for the PDP.

Cheers,

Joe

Nope; ARIN is a registry. More appropriate analogies would be a 
registry of deed or title that manage policy regarding subdividing
the same. When there's a conflict regarding such registrations in 
the Real World (in our region), you go to law enforcement and courts. 
Shockingly, that's what's encouraged in our cases.

To follow your previous line of argument, here you are actually
wanting to *revert* from the current state of engagement actual 
law enforcement to private outsourcing. From this perticular 
never-cowboy, I see the formation of a lynch mob, temeritas in

This proposal conflates the PDP work by the community on the NRPM 
with ARIN's legal work on [L]RSA. IMO, the proper approach would 
be to file through ACSP, since it specifically exists to take 
"suggestion[s] regarding an existing or potential ARIN service
or practice" (https://account.arin.net/public/acsp). Very simply, 
suggesting the ARIN BoT update the RSA with very specific language 
regarding hijacking and calling out specific actions or remedies. 
That at least express the desired norms in contract, despite the 
reality that most perps will not be under that contract.

Cheers!

ARIN has long provided NDAs (cf https://www.arin.net/resources/agreements/)
to cover (among many other things) justification data that is commonly
considered confidential matters for businesses. Off the top of my head,
business plans/projections/territory expansion, customer/usage data, 
infrastructure detail, etc.

IMO you're aiming your guns in the wrong direction.

I see this to be a fundamental failing of our region's fragmented

due to decisions made quite some time ago... that would be a "2017 rather

I'm not currently providing this service, but I did so when the 
discussion came around and recall when this was extended. It was 
specifically regarding services. All the CPNI rules stremmed from 
a customer's existing providers having an unfair marketing advantage 
by looking at the customer's services and usage. It was rooted in 
the age of slamming and "pretexting".  Even expanding that to generic 
Internet service did not change the definition to remove the scope 
of services provided to a customer.

[snip]

In that doc, see "Discussion" section F "Extension of CPNI 
Requirements to Providers of Interconnected VoIP Service". Even 
with ISPs under title 2, without inclusion of service information 
a public registry has [IME] no relationship to the CPNI issue. 
That said, my personal suggestion would be to not include type of 
service ( -DSL-, -FTTH-, etc) in the SWIP netblock name or 
elsewhere in the record purely from an infosec PoV. :-)

Cheers (this is not legal advice),

As a community, we (used to?) value accountability and transparency.
Having a direct contact associated with a resource has IME always 
worked better than trying to contact a porvider with whom I have no

Since my concern is associated with the resource usage, and we 
in ARIN-land historically wash our hands of connectivity/reachability,
as much as the second is appealing the former is more relevant and
workable. I personally dislike the blanket exception embedded within 
it, but know there's not going to be any upside to fighting that one
so would rather take what I can get.

For folks who think asymmetric transfers in this context

transfers in other contexts?  I'm specifically thinking of
asymmetric lock-in transfers to certain NIRs who require 
resources used within their legislative boundary be in 
their registry. I'm concerned that even a conditional 
door open here sets a precedent for enabling such reduced 
resource fluidity. 

IMNSHO, that way leads to enabling Balkanization.

Cheers!

Joe

I've observed this same problem across multiple organizations. 
I agree with Owen that correcting the problem rather than punting 
on it is the correct direction.

Cheers,
