[arin-discuss] Idea regarding ARIN-2013-3 from lunch table topic at ARIN 31

I actually like this idea, though as a pretty small ISP, a /36 would
probably be adequate for us. I think it depends on whether it is more
convenient from an ARIN management / fee structure perspective, to make /32
the minimum allocation.

Maybe you could give them a /32 no matter what, but charge them only up to
whatever their IPv4 holdings are. That way, anyone with a /18 or smaller,
gets a /32 for no additional cost. That should be completely revenue-nuetral
compared to allowing /36, /40, etc.

If the ISP has no IPv4 holdings, then have a minimum default category for
the IPv6. Since an IPv6-only ISP would not have the added allocation of
IPv4, the "cost" piece would be less. For example, if you only have an IPv6
/32, you are in the x-small/$1,000 category by default. I think that would
be reasonably fair.

Obviously tying the fee to IPv4 space would have to be addressed again once
IPv4 usage is waning, but so will many other policies.

thanks,
