Hi all,

I'd like to share a simulation on how prop-113 could possibly affect the 
consumption of the remaining 103/8 block.
Many thanks to Guangliang and software team from APNIC for providing data on 
portable assignments registered in APNIC database.

The idea behind this simulation is that by changing the requirement based on 
needs based through prop-113 (and multihoming not a must), 
networks receiving non-portable assignments shorter than /24 today will be 
eligible to receive direct assignments from APNIC/NIRs.

I took a look at the past data on how many non-portable assignments shorter 
than /24 were registered. 
I calculated how it could affect the consumption of the 103/8, if similar 
number of assignments were requested to receive direct assignments from 103/8, 
once they become eligible after prop-113.

Depending on calculation, it looks like prop-113 could accelerate the timeframe 
of exhaustion of 103/8 from roughly 5.5 years to 3.4 - 2.7 years:

  - Today without prop-113, if we continue to allocate roughly 2,000 * /22 
blocks per year (2,275 allocations in 2014), the remaining 103 block would be 
exhausted in 5.5 years.
  - If similar no.of requests as non-portable assignments >= /24 as 2014 is 
made, roughly 3270.75(1270.75 + 2,000) * /22 blocks per year, the block would 
be exhausted in 3.4 years
  - If similar no.of requests as non-portable assignments >= /24 as 2010 is 
made, roughly 4148.25(2148.25 + 2,000) * /22 blocks per year, the block would 
be exhausted in 2.7 years

 * This count is only based on assignments registered in APNIC and JPNIC 
database, and does not take into account of assignments registered in other 
NIRs's database. 
 * This is assuming that all will be requesting direct assignments from 
prop-113 and that no. of assignments requests remain flat each year
 * Portable assignments made from 103/8 in total is 1,997 blocks (this is not 
included in the consumption count)

I'd be interested to hear what we think about this possible implications of 
prop-113.
Do people think expanding the target of direct assignments through prop-113 
should be given the higher priority than possible implication accelerating the 
consumption of 103/8 block?

Remaining pool in 103/8:
 68% (from APNIC39 update) = approximately 11,408K hosts

No.of /22 allocations from 103/8:
          2011  2012  2013  2014
   APNIC  856   1098  1542  2275

NON-PORTABLE objects >= /24:

  2010: 8593 * /24  (7899 +  694) = 2148.25 * /22
  2011: 6295 * /24  (5017 + 1278)
  2012: 3678 * /24  (3025 +  653)
  2013: 4613 * /24  (3869 +  744)
  2014: 5083 * /24  (4052 + 1031) = 1270.75 * /22

* Based on objects registered in APNIC + JPNIC database 
* Does not include assignments in other NIRs' database
