[sig-policy] Summary of the Policy SIG at APNIC 20
I'd like to post the summary of last Policy SIG meeting on behalf of
Policy SIG Chair and Co-Chair.
We had the meeting at Hanoi on 8 September 2005.
- there were 66 participants in session 1 and 86 participants in
session 2.
- 4 policy proposals and 6 informational presentations.
1. IANA policy for allocation of IPv6 blocks to RIRs
Paul Wilson
The proposal include
(1)Allocation sufficient for 18 month period (not 36)
(2)Those with less than /12 unallocated address space to receive
an allocation from IANA RIRs to receive additional IPv6 space when
a. available space is less than 50% of a /12.
b. available space of IPv6 addresses is less than RIR requirement
for the following 9 months.
The proposal reached consensus at the Policy SIG meeting and AMM
2. Proposal to amend APNIC IPv6 assignment and utilisation requirement
policy
Geoff Huston
During the discussions, the proposer agreed to a request to separate
into 2 proposals
2.1 Proposal part 1: Evaluation for subsequent allocations to be
based on an HD-Ratio value of 0.94
The proposal reached consensus at the Policy SIG meeting and AMM
2.2 Proposal part 2: Add a /56 end-site allocation point (in
addition to /64 and /48) and default end-site allocation for SOHO end sites
to be a /56
The proposal didn't reached consensus at the Policy SIG meeting
3. Proposal for discrete networks and national peering
Uchenna N Ibekwe
This is a proposal to permit large ISPs to manage multiple country
accounts under a single APNIC membership using the concept of discrete
networks. The proposal also recommends that APNIC allocate routable
aggregate blocks of IPv6 to enable Global/Continental-regional/National
peering for Large ISPs with global facilities.
The proposal didn't reached consensus at the Policy SIG meeting
Informational presentations were as follows:
4. Alternative address allocation algorithm for IPv6, Mei Weng
5. Resource recovery policy - implementation update, Son Tran
