Hi David, In order to forecast exhaustion rates, we needed something to measure against. It would be rather naive of us to assume that allocation policy would remain the same tomorrow as it was yesterday, if APNIC received a /8 from IANA. This is where we looked at pre-prop127 delegation sizes

Hello John, It'll only take "98 years" if we drag our feet. In practicality, I'm of the belief that the first prefix from 240/4 can be delegated in as little as optimistically 2 years, and conservatively 5 years. Regards, Christopher Hawker From: NANOG on

Per my original email, looking at current exhaustion rates in the APNIC service region, if we stuck to allocating space to new entities and maintained allocating a maximum of a /22 to networks, just 3 x /8 would last over 20 years. This should be a more than sufficient timeframe for a much

We understand that having 240/4 reclassified as public space for assignment/allocation by RIRs will take some time and we are not expecting it to happen overnight. Having it reclassified as unicast space is indeed much easier. The Linux kernel already supports this (thanks Dave Taht), Windows
