[arin-ppml] Feedback Request: Policy ARIN-2024-6: 6.5.1a Definition Update

[Douglas Camin]

Bill & Cathy –

The policy proposal is intended to correct what is regarded as an editorial error. When Section 6.5.1a was added, it is believed the intention was for it to apply to the “section” (Section 6.5) only, and is interpreted that way in practice. However, it was written with the word “document,” which could unintentionally allow someone to suggest it implies a larger context (the whole of NRPM.)

This proposal seeks to clarify by adjusting the language in 6.5.1a to explicitly state that everything in Section 6.5 applies to both LIRs and ISPs, even though the language of the section only uses the term LIR. Elsewhere in NRPM there are distinctions between LIRs and ISPs that are relevant for policy implementation and, as a result, there is a distinction between LIR and ISP in those contexts.

To think about it holistically – for all sections of NRPM aside from 6.5, LIRs and ISPs have distinct differences. Inside of Section 6.5, anywhere it references an LIR, that policy also applies to an ISP. This policy changes the word “Document” to “Section” to ensure there is no confusion about that.

Hope that helps –


Doug

I think the question is why are you replacing "document" with "section"?  So is LIR not used in the rest of the "document"?  If it is then doesn't it still mean what it means in this "section"?

Thanks!

Hi William,

This particular change is only to the actual word used.

The proposal seeks to replace the word “document“ with “section”.

So as it pertains to that section in policy both terms can be used.

Hope that helps.
