[Apnic-announce] Next phase of transition to four-byte AS numbers now ac
Dear colleagues
APNIC has now implemented the next phase of the transition to four-byte
AS numbers.
Beginning today, APNIC assigns four-byte AS numbers by default when
receiving requests for AS numbers. Two-byte AS numbers will only be
assigned if the applicant can demonstrate that a four-byte only AS
number is unsuitable.
For more information on the implementation phases of the four-byte AS
number policy, please see section 6.3 of:
Policies for Autonomous System number management in the Asia
Pacific region

To learn more about how the transition to four-byte AS numbers may
affect your network, see:
