[arin-ppml] Fwd: BCP 6, RFC 6996 on Autonomous System (AS) Reservation for Private Use

[David Farmer]

I mentioned the Draft this RFC is based on in a previous email thread. 
Also, I think this RFC is of general interest to the ARIN Community and 
while not directly a policy issue, it is related to the overall 
management of Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs).

Thanks

This document describes the reservation of Autonomous System Numbers
(ASNs) that are for Private Use only, known as Private Use ASNs, and
provides operational guidance on their use.  This document enlarges
the total space available for Private Use ASNs by documenting the
reservation of a second, larger range and updates RFC 1930 by
replacing Section 10 of that document.
