As on date, total number of 24,75,008 IPv4 addresses (9668 number of /24 blocks) are available and 14,32,832 number of IPv4 addresses (5597 number of /24 blocks) are reserved as per stats available here - https://ftp.apnic.net/stats/apnic/delegated-apnic-20230124 . In last 4 years, the following number of /24 IP blocks were allotted —
1. 2019 — 10,86,464 (4244 IPv4 pools) 2. 2020 — 8,79,872 (3437 IPv4 pools) 3. 2021 — 11,52,256 (4501 IPv4 pools) 4. 2022 — 12,31,616 (4811 IPv4 pools) On an average, 4248 number of /24 segments has been allotted by the APNIC in last 4 years. And with the current available and reserved pool, APNIC can easily allot the IP numbers with the current pace for next ~ 4 years (this doesn’t include the pools marked as historical ones). The proposed policy will help the smaller organizations (having allocation smaller than /21) to get more IP numbers from APNIC, whereas for members who already have chunk bigger than /21, have the option to go for the open market, if required. This policy will not lead to hoarding and re-selling as existing APNIC policy doesn’t allow transfer/sale of new allocations for next years. _______________________________________________ sig-policy - https://mailman.apnic.net/[email protected]/ To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
