[arin-announce] NRPM version 2007.1 - New Policy Implementation

[Member Services]

On 16 November 2006, the ARIN Board of Trustees, based on the
recommendation of the Advisory Council and noting that the Internet
Resource Policy Evaluation Process had been followed, adopted the
following policy proposal:

2006-3: Capturing Originations in Templates

This policy proposal has been incorporated into version 2007.1 of the
ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM) which is effective 28 March
2007. NRPM version 2007.1 supersedes previous versions. See Appendix A
of the NRPM for information regarding changes to the manual.

Origin AS information for a network can be supplied to ARIN using
version 4.1 of the following templates:

* ISP Network Request
* End-user Network Request
* Network Modification
* Reallocate
* Reassign - Simple
* Reassign - Detailed
* IPv6 ISP Request
* IPv6 End-user Request
* IPv6 Modify
* IPv6 Reallocate
* IPv6 Reassign
* Resource Transfer Template

Origin AS information cannot be added using previous template versions.

ARIN will continue to accept the previous versions of these templates
for at least one year so that customers using scripts will have
sufficient time to update their software.

Origin AS information will be visible via ARIN's WHOIS directory service
and available in list format at:
ftp://ftp.arin.net/pub/originAS/
