Hi there,
* APEX NCC ORG
Can you provide an example of using and registering an
AGGREGATED-BY-LIR object for IPV4?
Who is this for and when?
It has exactly the same use case as AGGREGATED-BY-LIR for IPv6. It is
primarily intended for LIRs which need to make a large number of

There is a subtly here which I don't think is fully appreciated.

Hi Denis,
It would appear to me that your opposition to 2023-04 is largely based
on the premise that it introduces a new possibility for anonymous
assignments, a change which you do not want to see happen. This premise

Hello Denis,
Let me start off by clearing up a misunderstanding:
My brief example did not mean to convey that non-uniform contact
information is the only thing that could make a set of objects non-
uniform and thus unsuitable for AGGREGATED-BY-LIR.
Rather, the exact opposite was the intended
