Re: [sig-policy] sig-policy Digest, Vol 172, Issue 7

Dear All,

I'm commenting on the proposals in my personal capacity.

In the first place, APNIC secretariat only refused very few requests, who fails to demonstrate the need for the transfer, and if anyone wants to grow their network, they have IPv6 address space available, I think the network should also demonstrate they are not capable of deploying IPv6 address space in their networks. This policy proposal will only help address brokers and will hinder the growth of IPv6 networks.

Thanks & Regards,

Shiva Upadhyay

*Dear Colleagues,I am Satoru Tsurumaki from Japan Open Policy Forum.I would

like to share key feedback in our community for prop-118,based on a meeting

we organised on 22nd Aug to discuss these proposals.Many supporting

opinions were expressed on this proposal.However, many comments were

expressed that proposer should feedback for the discussion which we

discussed in past OPM. Below are details of opinions expressed. - Demand

for 5 years: It is difficult to clarify a demand of address needs for both

APNIC and LIR. - The policy should be looser. it will increase a

possibilities of address transfer if time frame are expand from 2 years to

5 years. - The reason why APNIC clarify the request of transfer is for

tranferring from ARIN. So inter-APNIC case, it not need originally and

there is no reason to make a a clarification strictly.I agree with the

purpose of the proposal. - Nevertheless, proposer should respond to the

past comments. - I'd like to request to proposer to explain the intention

of copying the implementation contents of RIPE NCC as it is. - The content

of the previous discussion has not been reflected and it is not refined.

Although the position of the proposal is not in an opposite position, the

proponent should explain more. Please answer the discussion at APNIC 44.*

Regards,

Satoru Tsurumaki

> prop-118-v002: No need policy in APNIC region

> ----------------------------------------------------------------------

> Proposer: Heng Lu

> h.lu@laruscloudservice.net

> 1. Problem Statement

> --------------------

> Whenever a transfer of IPv4 is taking place within the APNIC region, the

> recipient needs to demonstrate the "need" for the IPv4 space they intend

> to transfer.

> Companies transferring IPv4 space to their pool do this in ordcer to

> enable further growth in their network, since the space is not coming

> from the free public pool, regular policies that are intended to protect

> the limited pool of IPv4 space can be removed in transfers.

> 2. Objective of policy change

> -----------------------------

> Simplify transfer of IPv4 space between resource holders.

> Ease some administration on APNIC staff, increase database accuracy.

> 3. Situation in other regions

> -----------------------------

> RIPE region has an all around no need policy in IPv4, even for first

> allocation, transfers do not require the recipient to demonstrate their

> intended use of the resources.

> ARIN, need base for both transfers and resources issued by ARIN.

> AFRINIC, need based policy on transfers (not active yet) and resource

> request from AFRINIC based on needs.

> LACNIC, no transfers, need based request.

> Out of all these RIR, only ARIN and RIPE NCC have inter-RIR transfer

> policies, ARIN has made clear in the past that the "no need" policy

> from the RIPE region would break inter-RIR transfers from ARIN to RIPE

> region.

> 4. Proposed policy solution

> ---------------------------

> Simply copy the RIPE policy to solve the ARIN transfer incompatibility:

> - APNIC shall accept all transfers of Internet number resources to its

> service region, provided that they comply with the policies relating

> to transfers within its service region.

> - For transfers from RIR regions that require the receiving region to

> have needs-based policies, recipients must provide a plan to the

> APNIC for the use of at least 50% of the transferred resources within

> 5 years.

> - When transferring Internet number resources to another RIR, the APNIC

> will follow the transfer policies that apply within its own service

> region.

> The APNIC will also comply with the commitments imposed by the

> receiving

> RIR in order to facilitate the transfer.

> 5. Advantages / Disadvantages

> -----------------------------

> Advantages:

> - Harmonisation with RIPE region.

> - Makes transfer simpler and smoother within APNIC and between APNIC

> and RIPE.

> - Maintains a compatibility with ARIN.

> - Removes the uncertainty that a transfer may be rejected based on

> potentially badly documented needs.

> - Lowers the overall administrative burden on APNIC staff.

> None.

*Dear Colleagues,I am Satoru Tsurumaki from Japan Open Policy Forum.I would

like to share key feedback in our community for prop-124,based on a meeting

we organised on 22nd Aug to discuss these proposals.Many supporting

opinions were expressed on this proposal.However, also many concerning

comment was expressed to explain the specific examples.For this matter, the

same opinion was given also at JPOPM34. - It is better to stop specific

examples because they tend to fall into discussion of adding / not applying

/ not applicable. - I think that specific examples should be stated in

the guidelines rather than policies.*

> ------------------------------

> Proposer: Jordi Palet Mart?nez

> jordi.palet@theipv6company.com

> 1. Problem Statement

> When the policy was drafted, the concept of assignments/sub-assignments

> did not consider a practice very common in IPv4 which is replicated and

> even amplified in IPv6: the use of IP addresses for point-to-point links

> or VPNs.

> In the case of IPv6, instead of unique addresses, the use of unique

> prefixes (/64) is increasingly common.

> Likewise, the policy failed to consider the use of IP addresses in

> hotspots,

> or the use of IP addresses by guests or employees in Bring Your Own Device

> (BYOD) and many other similar cases.

> One more case is when an end-user contracts a third-party to do some

> services

> in their own network and they need to deploy their own devices, even

> servers,

> network equipment, etc. For example, security surveillance services may

> require

> that the contractor provides their own cameras, recording system, even

> their

> own firewall and/or router for a dedicated VPN, etc. Of course, in many

> cases,

> this surveillance system may need to use the addressing space of the

> end-user.

> Finally, the IETF has recently approved the use of a unique /64 prefix per

> interface/host (RFC8273) instead of a unique address. This, for example,

> allows users to connect to a hotspot, receive a /64 such that they are

> ?isolated? from other users (for reasons of security, regulatory

> requirements, etc.) and they can also use multiple virtual machines

> on their devices with a unique address for each one (within the same /64).

> 2. Objective of policy change

> Section 2.2.3. (Definitions/Assigned Address Space), explicitly prohibits

> such assignments, stating that ?Assigned ... may not be sub-assigned?.

> https://www.apnic.net/community/policy/resources#2.2.3.-

> Assigned-address-space

> This proposal clarifies this situation in this regard and better define the

> concept, particularly considering new uses of IPv6 (RFC 8273), by means of

> a new paragraph.

> 3. Situation in other regions

> This situation, has already been corrected in RIPE, and the policy was

> updated

> in a similar way, even if right now there is a small discrepancy between

> 4. Proposed policy solution

> Add a new paragraph after the existing one in 2.2.3

> https://www.apnic.net/community/policy/resources#2.2.3.-

> Assigned-address-space

> Actual text:

> 2.2.3. Assigned address space

> Assigned address space is address space that is delegated to an LIR, or

> end-user,

> for specific use within the Internet infrastructure they operate.

> Assignments must

> only be made for specific, documented purposes and may not be sub-assigned.

> New text:

> 2.2.3. Assigned address space

> Assigned address space is address space that is delegated to an LIR, or

> end-user,

> for specific use within the Internet infrastructure they operate.

> Assignments must

> only be made for specific, documented purposes and may not be sub-assigned.

> third

> parties, for use on a network managed and operated by the assignment

> holder,

> shall not be considered a sub-assignment.

> The provision of addressing space for permanent or semi-permanent

> connectivity,

> such as broadband services, is still considered a sub-assignment.
