Hello Policy SIG, I have an idea for 1.2.3.0/24 I would like to share with you before submitting a policy proposal. Prop-109 properly directed APNIC to use 1.0.0.0/24 and 1.1.1.0/24 for research purposes. That leaves one more significant prefix to deal with: 1.2.3.0/24. It is significant because it contains the IP address 1.2.3.4. 1.2.3.4 is a desirable IP address. It can be used in all sorts of very interesting applications. It also receives an enormous amount of “junk” traffic every day, so it requires a fairly hefty infrastructure just to start routing it.
This is a new idea, and is not fully thought out. So I wanted to post it, get some reactions, and improve the idea. (Or abandon it if people do not like it.) Thank you. David David R Huberman Microsoft Corporation
