[sig-policy] APNIC policy implementation update




Dear colleagues

The APNIC Secretariat has now implemented the following policy
proposals:

     prop-031: IPv6 portable assignment for multihoming
     prop-033: End site assignment policy for IPv6
     prop-035: Proposal to amend APNIC IPv6 assignment and utilisation
               requirement policy


-------------------------
Details of policy changes
-------------------------

prop-031: IPv6 portable assignment for multihoming

    - The IPv6 HD ratio amended from 0.8 to 0.94.


prop-033: End site assignment policy for IPv6

    - The minimum assignment size of /48 for an end site has been
      removed, allowing the unit of assignment to be the LIR’s
      decision.
    - APNIC will measure utilisation of IPv6 address space in terms of
      the bits to the left of the /56 boundary.


prop-035: Proposal to amend APNIC IPv6 assignment and utilisation
           requirement policy
    -  End sites that currently multihome or plan to multihome are now
       eligible to receive a portable assignment.
    -  The minimum assignment size will be /48.


The comment period for the draft documents incorporating these polices
has ended. The updated documents are now officially active:

           by the APNIC Executive Council and may change in the future.
