[sig-policy] Fw: Re: Presentation for the Address Policy SIG



All,

I will forward several proposals to be presented in the next
Address Policy SIG in Kita-Kyushu. I expect a lot of discussion
will occur both in the mailing list and at the meeting site.

In the first mail, the below is a proposal about IPv6 essential
infrastructure assignment from Okutani of JPNIC.

Regards,
Takashi Arano
APNIC Address Policy SIG chair

>     We have not fixed a policy on assignments to Rt.DNS, and networks
>     for gTLD/ccTLD as well as those of RIR/NIC/IANA

>     i. /48 should be assigned to IX
>       Pros
>        - Can be assigned out of /32 reserved for IX assignments
>        - all IXs will receive the same assignment size throughout the
>          world
>        - it is the minumum size to be registered into DB
>       Cons
>        - Assignments have already been made
>        - /64 could meet the needs sufficiently
>
>    ii./48 should be assigned to Rt.DNS
>       Pros
>        - Can be assigned out of /32 reserved for Rt.DNS
>        - Can be made routable by posting the address block publicly
>       Cons
>        - The risk to be filtered is higher than /32
>
>    iii./48 should be assigned to gTLD/ccTLD DNS
>      Pros
>       - Can be assigned out of /32 reserved for this purpose
>       - Consistent with assignment to Rt.DNS
>       - Consitent with ARIN's policy
>
>    iv./48 should be assigned to RIR/NIC/IANA
>      Pros
>       - Difficult to receive an assignment from a particular ISP due
>         to the independent nature of its organization
>       - Consitent with ARIN's policy
>      Cons
>       - No major technical problem by receiving assignment from
