Unless I’m missing anything (in other regions we have “sub-assignment”), I think it works for me.

 

May be a way to shorten it is to use the proposed sentence, but after all the definitions:

 

 

2.5. Allocation, Assignment, Reallocation, Reassignment

 

Allocation - Address space delegated to an organization directly by ARIN for the purpose of subsequent distribution by the recipient organization to other parties.

 

Assignment - Address space delegated to an organization directly by ARIN for the exclusive use of the recipient organization.

 

Reallocation - Address space sub-delegated to an organization by an upstream provider for the purpose of subsequent distribution by the recipient organization to other parties.

 

Reassignment - Address space sub-delegated to an organization by an upstream provider for the exclusive use of the recipient organization.

 

Note that a temporary reassignment of address space provided to third parties shall not be considered a reassignment or a violation of the exclusive use criterion.

 

 

 

 

 


Regards,

Jordi

Because of recent changes, editorial if I remember correctly, section 2.5 now reads as;

 

2.5. Allocation, Assignment, Reallocation, Reassignment

 

Allocation - Address space delegated to an organization directly by ARIN for the purpose of subsequent distribution by the recipient organization to other parties.

 

Assignment - Address space delegated to an organization directly by ARIN for the exclusive use of the recipient organization.

 

Reallocation - Address space sub-delegated to an organization by an upstream provider for the purpose of subsequent distribution by the recipient organization to other parties.

 

Reassignment - Address space sub-delegated to an organization by an upstream provider for the exclusive use of the recipient organization.

 

This proposal essentially adds the following sentence to "Assignment" above.

 

A temporary assignment of address space provided to third parties shall not be considered a reassignment or a violation of the exclusive use criterion.

 

However, I propose the following minor change to that;

 

A temporary reassignment of address space provided to third parties shall not be considered a reassignment or a violation of the exclusive use criterion.

 

Further, the sentence should also apply to "Reassignment". So, does the sentence also need to be added to "Reassignment"?  Or maybe add the following sentence to "Reassignment";



Excluding temporary reassignments, as discussed in the definition Assignment above. 



Thanks

Draft Policy ARIN-2018-4: Clarification on Temporary Sub-Assignments

Problem Statement:

When the policy was drafted, the concept of assignments/sub-assignments did not consider the use of IP addresses in hotspots, or the use of IP addresses by guests or employees in Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and many other similar cases.

Additionally, the IETF has recently approved the use of a unique IPv6 /64 prefix per interface/host (RFC8273) instead of a unique address. This, for example, allows users to connect to a hotspot, receive a /64 such that they are "isolated" from other users (for reasons of security, regulatory requirements, etc.) and they can also use multiple virtual machines on their devices with a unique address for each one (within the same /64).

Section 2.5 (Definitions/Allocate and Assign), explicitly prohibits such assignments, stating that "Assignments... are not to be sub-assigned to other parties".

This proposal clarifies this situation in this regard and better define the concept, particularly considering new uses of IPv6 (RFC8273), by means of additional language added to the definition of an Assignment.

Note that the proposal text also incorporates changes made under an Editorial Change currently awaiting Board of Trustees review, available here: https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/2017_11.html

Policy Statement:

Actual Text, Section 2.5:

• Assign - To assign means to delegate address space to an ISP or end-user, for specific use within the Internet infrastructure they operate. Assignments must only be made for specific purposes documented by specific organizations and are not to be sub-assigned to other parties.

New Text:

• Assignment - Address space delegated to an organization directly by ARIN for the exclusive use of the recipient organization. A temporary assignment of address space provided to third parties shall not be considered an assignment or a violation of the exclusive use criterion.

Comments

Timetable for implementation:

Immediate

Anything else:

Situation in other regions:

This situation, has already been corrected in RIPE, and the policy was updated in a similar way, even if right now there is a small discrepancy between the policy text that reached consensus and the RIPE NCC Impact Analysis. A new policy proposal has been submitted to amend that, and the text is the same as presented by this proposal at ARIN. Same text has also been submitted to AfriNIC, LACNIC and APNIC.
