Proposal summary
----------------
This is a proposal for IANA to reserve one /8 for each RIR as soon as
this proposal is adopted.
Later, when IANA receives a request for IPv4 address space that cannot
be fulfilled using the remaining IANA IPv4 free pool, IANA will allocate
each RIR a single /8 from the block reserved for this purpose.
Any remaining /8s in IANA,Ab€™s free pool will then be allocated to the RIR
that makes the last request to IANA.
The proposal was presented at APNIC 25, where it received majority
support but not consensus.
This proposal has reached consensus at the AfriNIC 8 and LACNIC XI
meetings and has been adopted by the ARIN Board of Trustees. In the RIPE
region, it is currently in its last call for comments after being deemed
to have reached consensus on the mailing list.
