[arin-ppml] Application requests for IPv6?

[Leslie Nobile]

Hi Marty-

In response to your recent inquiry about IPv6 requests to ARIN, staff has produced the following data.

Total IPv6 Requests January 2009 through January 2011:

ISP requests  received – 748
ISP requests approved - 712 or 96%

Generally speaking, for ISPs, there are almost no denials for IPv6 address requests.  Anything not approved was likely an end-user who put in an ISP request and needed to resubmit as an end-user.  In fact, during this past year, there have been no denials to ISPs/LIRs under the IPv6 allocation policy which seems to indicate that the current policy has been very effective.

End-user requests received -  464
End-user requests approved – 403 or 87%

Almost all of the denied end-user requests were to small single-homed networks who were unable to meet any one of the policy criteria: they either (1) weren’t  using enough IPv4 address space to qualify under current IPv4 policy, (2) had no legacy space, or (3) didn’t qualify as a community network.

I hope this information helps!

Regards,
Leslie
