<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>The hardest part of that approach is that the fee for a provider
that is offering dual-stack /48 to each customer should be substantially less
than a 6rd deployment offering /60. It is not ARIN’s role to define
end product offerings, so differentiating the fee schedule for 2 ISPs
requesting a /28 based on how they plan to use it is probably out of the
question.</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";
color:#993366'>So how do you get your escalating fee structure without doing
that? This sounds like a hard problem, administratively and economically. And
you’re right, once the fees are set they will establish parameters around
which implementations are incentivized. I can’t tell from all the list
noise where things are going but it does seem to me that policy and fees are
becoming more closely related all the time, which may require another look at
ARIN’s separation of the two. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
