</div>Do you have to use 80% on all allocations? Or just the most recent one?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>That's not very clear in the ISP additional allocation policy. <a href="https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four24">https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four24</a> for ISPs says:<br>
<br></div><div>4.2.4.1. Utilization percentage (80%)<br><br>ISPs must have efficiently utilized all previous allocations and at least 80% of their most recent allocation in order to receive additional space. This includes all space reassigned to their customers. Please note that until your prior utilization is verified to meet the 80% requirement, ARIN can neither process nor approve a request for additional addresses.<br>
<br><a href="https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four361">https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four361</a> for end users is more clear: <br><br>4.3.6.1 Utilization Requirements for Additional Assignment<br><br>In order to justify an additional assignment, end-users must have efficiently utilized at least 80% of all previous assignments, and must provide ARIN with utilization details.</div>
<div><br></div><div>On the other hand, the Multiple Discrete Networks policy at <a href="https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four5">https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four5</a> only requires 50% overall (but 80% of each site at the time it was assigned).</div>
