[ARIN-consult] Results of Consultation Regarding "Daily Publication of IP Addresses Issued and Returned"

[Member Services]

There were very few responses during this consultation based on part two 
of Suggestion 2008.2.
     [excerpt below, full suggestion at bottom]:

"In addition, ARIN should publish a report of addresses returned, and 
addresses issued, in the form of a mailing list (with daily email) and 
an RSS feed. This will only contain allocations/assignments made 
directly by ARIN or address blocks returned to ARIN's free pool. The 
intent is that RBL operators can subscribe to such a feed and keep their 
own lists clean."
    
Given the minimal interest while understanding the value to the 
community, we will implement this service on a trial basis for three 
months which will commence on 1 January, 2009. If there are reports of 
abuse during that period, the service will be terminated.

ARIN should track all RBLs, DUNS and similar IP address blacklists.
Then, when an address block is re-issued to another organization or 
returned from an organization, ARIN should check these lists. If 
addresses from the re-issued block are found on one of the lists, then 
ARIN should attempt to inform the list maintainer.

In addition, ARIN should publish a report of addresses returned, and 
addresses issued, in the form of a mailing list (with daily email) and 
an RSS feed. This will only contain allocations/assignments made 
directly by ARIN or address blocks returned to ARIN's free pool. The 
intent is that RBL operators can subscribe to such a feed and keep their 
own lists clean.
