Re: [sig-policy] prop-046-v002: IPv4 countdown policy proposal
Hi Leo,
Leo Vegoda wrote (2007/08/08 18:52):
If this proposal is accepted in all RIR communities, should it take
precedence over the current global policy for allocating address
space to the RIRs? For instance, if the IANA free pool had more than
five /8s left in it and fulfilling an RIR's request for additional
IPv4 space would take the pool below five /8s, what should happen?
Should the RIR's request be partially fulfilled, leaving five /8s in
the free pool, which would then be distributed as per this proposal?
If APNIC requests two /8s while IANA free pool has 6 (and if APNIC's request
should be approved), then APNIC should receive 1(for the request) plus 1
(according to this proposal) /8 (total 2). All the other RIRs have one /8 each.
Similarly if APNIC requests two /8s while IANA has 7, then APNIC gets 2 plus
1 /8s (total 3) and the others have 1 each.
regards,
toshi
