[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2017-5: Equalization of Assignment Registration requirements between IPv4 and IPv6

[hostmaster at uneedus.com]

Im sure glad that /32's of static IPv4 are not subject to SWIP, and that 
SWIP does not require GPS info.

If it did, we would be in trouble, as our GPS tracking only updates every 
300 seconds or 5 minutes, and we would need a T1 of bandwidth just to keep 
the SWIP updated, and for what purpose?  In all cases the only place that 
will address abuse is our NOC.

Right now, all 500+ busses use a static IPv4 address, that is assigned by 
the Major wireless provider.  They are NOT in a block reserved for us. 
They are scattered around several blocks of addresses of the provider, 
some of which they appear to be leasing from another party, and those SWIP 
records list the leasing company.  None of them have a SWIP to us, our 
provider has to forward the reports to us, sometimes thru the leasing co.

Before the bus wifi was added, we had NO abuse reports.  Now, out of this 
fleet, we draw about 2 a month, all associated with the public wifi.  We 
do filter port 25 to keep spammers from setting up on our busses, along 
with a block of other problem ports and locations.

As we move to v6, I am hoping the policy will change from 100% SWIP to a 
level not requiring it.  This is because our provider insists the current 
ARIN rule requires a street address for each bus.  I think I will point 
them to the thread that states the site address is not required in SWIP, 
and we can use the ADMIN address, or better yet wait for the policy to 
change and let them forward reports just like they do in v4.  In any case, 
my guess is that nearly no abuse will happen on v6 for lack of customer 
abuse, and we will continue to receive a couple of reports a month on the 
new contract dynamic addresses, if they at the provider can even figure 
out who to send them to, as in the future the addresses for v4 might be 
CGnat, and they would have to figure out who did it.
