[arin-ppml] Revised - Draft Policy ARIN-2022-12: Direct Assignment Language Update

Wed Mar 22 10:26:13 EDT 2023

Hi, 
I'm new to this replying to mailing lists so please correct any decorum or
reply mistakes. 
But how does this affect Legacy IP holders?
At first read, this seems to remove the distinction and tries to force
through new definitions? 
So if that is the intent, then I strongly oppose this? 

And previously during the discussion there has been a question asked at
draft that no one answered, as well from 
Kat Hunter, which I believe is also relevant. 

Regards,
Zingee

As a result of ARIN?s fee harmonization direct assignments are no longer
being utilized within ARIN databases therefore language around that has been
deprecated and should be modernized.

Policy Statement:

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"

RESULT: ?This policy applies to every Organization that has an allocation or
AS number registered with ARIN (or one of its predecessor registries) or a
reallocation from an upstream ISP.?

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.?

All ISPs without any IPv4 space automatically qualify for a /24. These
organizations are exempt from requirements of showing the efficient

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?

order to receive additional IPv4 addresses. This includes all IPv4 space
reassigned to their customers.?
