These policy proposals take effect today, February 17, 2006. * 2005-4: AfriNIC Recognition Policy * 2005-5: IPv6 HD ratio * 2005-7: Rationalize Multi-Homing Definition and Requirement Version 2006.1 of the ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM) is effective today, February 17, 2006. This version supersedes all previous versions. See Appendix A of the NRPM for information regarding changes to the manual. The NRPM can be found at: http://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html Appendix A can be found at: http://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm_changelog.html Regards, Member Services American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) From memsvcs at arin.net Wed Feb 22 18:58:23 2006 From: memsvcs at arin.net (Member Services) Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2006 18:58:23 -0500 Subject: [arin-announce] Additional Multi-homing Requirements Message-ID: <009101c6380b$dd3854d0$5f8888c0@arin.net> On 12 February 2006, the ARIN Board of Trustees ratified policy proposal 2005-7 "Rationalize Multi-Homing Definition and Requirement." This adopted policy changed Sections 4.2.2.2 and 4.3.2.2 of the Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM). In order to implement this policy, ARIN's Registration Services Department will now be requiring additional information for any IPv4 request that is submitted under the multi-homing policy. In addition, to normalize the requirements regarding multi-homing, this additional information will also be required to validate Autonomous System Number (ASN) requests that are submitted under the multi-homing clause of the ASN policy. The additional information required includes, but is not limited to, copies of agreements with transit providers and/or peers to validate the intention to multi-home. This additional information, as well as all other information used to justify resource requests, will be kept confidential.
