    Dear all,

    I can tell you my real experience with APNIC, when I want to
    transfer my unused IP ranges to a Singapore based ISP from my
    account, they deny it!! That is ridiculous! They said I cannot
    transfer! I cannot believe it if the IP address I owned but I cannot
    transfer it to a new owner.

    Can anyone tell me who has the same experience?

    Hi,

    The justification for the needs was/is great to have in place to
    protect a free pool of scarce resources.

    Maintaining a correct registry, with the proper information is one
    of the core responsibilities of the RIRs, and as a community we
    must develop policies that allows the RIR to do that job in the
    most easy and convenient manner, no need would enable that for
    APNIIC, their time can then be spent on other things.

    Unused resources, ideally should be returned to the free pool, but
    that almost never happen voluntarily, they will instead be
    transferred, or even simply assigned or sub-allocated, no real big
    difference here, just different values in the Database and
    different real world contracts, some Database editing you can do
    yourself, others you need to ask your RIR for assistance.

    Resources that get transferred are not issued by the RIR from
    their free pool, they are already out there, I do not see any
    positive impact if APNIC rejects a transfer because the recipient
    cannot justify the whole prefix to be transferred.

    It will not increase the free pool available at APNIC.
    It may as well cancel the whole transfer.
    If initially rejected and further information is needed, it delays
    what is a very sensitive process, where both the offering and
    receiving party wants the whole process rounded up as fast as
    possible.

    RIPE region has had the "no need policy" in place for years, I
    don't believe any sign of massive hoarding for speculative purpose
    is visible over there (Multiple membership process gets abused,
    but that is another issue altogether).
    Large transfers were made, and you do not need to have access to
    any stats to know those organisations needed that space,
    justifying large allocations can be extremely time consuming and
    ultimately detrimental to the overall LIR's business.

        I disagree…

        I believe that needs testing still preserves the idea of
        distributing addresses to those with need even in a
        post-exhaustion world.

        This serves to discourage speculative transactions and other
        transfers to those not actually needing addresses which would
        only drive prices up and not provide any benefit to the community.

        Hello all,

        I agreed that APNIC should accept all transfer without
        question because IP resource could be count into a assets to
        the IP holder in accounting. That's mean the ip holder have
        the right to request transfer to or from other APNIC members
        or other RIR.

        Hi Aftab,

        This is only to simplify things, need based policies are
        there to protect the free pool from exhaustion and ensure
        fair distribution.

        Space that is already out there can already be transferred
        without much hassle, removing the need base justification
        just simplifies the whole process, making the transfer
        faster and smoother.

                    policy a bit in order to make transfers between
                    two regions more compatible, it is really more
                    of a small patch the way I see it.____
