Hi, I received some questions from our LIRs about this proposal and
thought I'd share them on this list as well.
- Should the initial allocation criteria be changed with this policy to
200 customers, instead of /48s?
$B!!(B"have a plan for making at least 200 /48 assignments to other
organizations within two years."
This could be a logically consistent change, in that it appears that the
intent of the Ipv6 allocation policy is to allow IPv6 resource
allocations to be available to service providers with customers.
- What would be the minimum registration requirements per endsite?
A suggestion JPNIC has is to allow all dynamic assignments and /64s to
be aggregated as LIR's infrastructure, but require all other
assignments per endsite, to be consistent with v4.
Would there be any particular motivation to deviate from a practice that
is consistent with Ipv4? (I can't think of any at this stage.)
The reason I can think of is the overall size of the IPv6 space. If people
starts registering /64s and smaller assignments to the NIR/RIR, our disk storage
will fill up rather quickly and the utilization calculation will take longer.
I'm not saying this can't be done.
Considering that the registration requirement primary reason is to measure
utilization, how about aggregating the assignment report to whatever size the HD
ratio calculation is based on? And can we confirm that it is now based on /56?
