[arin-ppml] Revised - Draft Policy ARIN-2017-9: Clarification of Initial Block Size for IPv4 ISP Transfers

Thu Feb 1 14:10:51 EST 2018

As previously stated, we should revise 4.2.2 to be consistent with 8.5.4.

The changes proposed in 2016-3, 2016-4, 2016-5 were all part of a package
that intended to:

- create a slow start for transfers (double what you have) - 2016-3
- create a boot strapping for tranfers (first /24 with no justification) -
2016-5
- remove efficent utilization or immedate (30 day) need for ISP initial -
2016-4
- create a boot strapping for initial ISP (first /24 with no justification)
- 2016-4
- sync initial ISP w/ no resources, desiring greater than /24 w/ transfers
-  2016-4

It is my belief as one of the originators that there was no desire to
remove the
the time horizion requirement for ISP initial (except for a /24).

It is my belief as one of the originators that there was no desire to
remove the
requirement that ISP with IPv4 space from their upstream need to demonstare
efficent utilization.

I beleive these are all a side effect of removing the 2.2.2 subsections.

2016-4 is not clear that the sub sections will be removed.
