Draft Policy ARIN-2022-12: Direct Assignment Language Update

Section 3.6.3:

 

Change paragraph 1 text

 

FROM: “This policy applies to every Organization that has a direct assignment, direct allocation, or AS number from ARIN”

 

TO: “This policy applies to every Organization that has an allocation or AS number registered with ARIN"

Section 4.2.2:

 

Reorganize and adjust text as follows

 

FROM:

 

4.2.2. Initial Allocation to ISPs

 

”All ISP organizations without direct assignments or allocations from ARIN qualify for an initial allocation of up to a /22, subject to ARIN’s minimum allocation size.

 

“All ISP organizations without direct allocations, direct assignments, re-allocations or reassignments automatically qualify for a /24. These organizations are exempt from requirements of showing the efficient utilization of previously held IPv4 space. These organizations may qualify for a larger than a /24 by documenting how the requested allocation will be utilized within the request size specified in 4.2.4.3.

 

“ISPs holding re-allocations and/or reassignments must show the efficient utilization of their resources consistent with the requirements in sections 4.2.3 and 4.2.4.”

 

TO:

 

4.2.2. Initial Allocation to ISPs

All ISP organizations without IPv4 allocations registered with ARIN qualify for an initial allocation of up to a /22, subject to ARIN’s minimum assignment size.

 

4.2.2.2 ISPs without existing IPv4 addresses

 

All ISPs without any IPv4 space automatically qualify for a /24. These organizations are exempt from requirements of showing the efficient utilization of previously held IPv4 space. These organizations may qualify for a larger than a /24 by documenting how the requested allocation will be utilized within the request size specified in 4.2.4.3.

 

4.2.2.3 Qualifying for increased initial assignments

 

These organizations are exempt from requirements of showing the efficient utilization of previously held IPv4 space. These organizations may qualify for a larger than a /24 by documenting how the requested allocation will be utilized within the request size specified in 4.2.4.3.

 

ISPs holding re-allocations and/or reassignments must show the efficient utilization of their resources consistent with the requirements in sections 4.2.3 and 4.2.4.

 

Section 4.3.2:

 

Change paragraph 1 text

 

FROM: “direct assignments or allocations” to “ARIN-issued IPv4 addresses”

Section 8.5.6: change section text FROM: “Organizations with direct assignments or allocations from ARIN…”

 

TO: “Organizations with IPv4 allocations registered with ARIN…”

 

RESULT: “Organizations with IPv4 allocations registered with ARIN must have efficiently utilized at least 50% of their cumulative IPv4 address blocks in order to receive additional IPv4 addresses. This includes all IPv4 space reassigned to their customers.”
