From info at arin.net Mon Aug 4 13:18:20 2014 From: info at arin.net (ARIN) Date: Mon, 04 Aug 2014 13:18:20 -0400 Subject: [arin-announce] Consultation on New Experimental Allocation Message-ID: <53DFC05C.8010600@arin.net> ARIN is soliciting community input on a proposed experiment that will require the temporary use of space from 23.128.0.0/10, the IPv4 addresses reserved to facilitate IPv6 deployment. (see NRPM policy 4.10 https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four10 ) There has been much discussion on the NANOG mailing list about the usability / routability of prefixes longer than a /24. In order to try to provide some additional data on this topic, the RIPE NCC has requested a small block of address space from the reserved /10 in order to run the following experiment: RIPE Routing Information System (RIS) plans to announce a few blocks of sizes /24 to /28 (no more then ten at a time) out of the 23.128/10. They will monitor how this address space propagates in BGP and its reachability. * This experiment will provide the global community with insight on whether prefixes longer than a /24 from 23.128/10 are useable and reachable on the global Internet. * A description of this experiment, as well as the results of this research, will be published on https://labs.ripe.net/ . Additionally, ARIN will provide a link to the RIPE Labs page, as well as the end date of this experiment in the public Whois record of this registration. Do you support the use of this reserved space for this experiment or not, and why? Please provide comments to arin-consult at arin.net. You can subscribe to this mailing list at: http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-consult. This consultation will remain open through 5:00 PM EDT on Monday, 1 September 2014.

Tim passed on Tuesday, 5 August 2014. He was 52 years young. Tim joined ARIN in May of 2000 as Database Administrator and quickly became an integral part of the ARIN family. His professorial nature, deep knowledge and friendly demeanor were always welcome, particularly when educating the ARIN staff and community. Tim had many friendships within the organization and within the industry; we will all miss his sensitivity and ability to get to the bottom of any issue. Tim cared deeply about the mission of ARIN and how he could do the best work possible for the community we serve. ARIN President and CEO John Curran said, ?Tim?s dedication to ARIN, compassion for his fellow colleagues and love of life were known to all of us here and those in the community who had the privilege of engaging with him.? Our thoughts and prayers are with Tim's family; wife Michelle, son Andrew and daughters Lauren and Megan. Expressions of sympathy may be sent to info at arin.net, and we will forward them on to Tim's family.
