Draft Policy ARIN-2014-22<br>
Removal of Minimum in Section 4.10<br>
<br>
Date: 25 November 2014<br>
<br>
Problem Statement:<br>
<br>
The current section 4.10 Dedicated IPv4 block to facilitate IPv6 Deployment creates an issue where a small new organization that requires an IPv4 allocation or assignment would potentially receive a block that today would be unroutable and therefore unusable for it intended purposes.<br>
<br>
Policy statement:<br>
<br>
Change<br>
<br>
"This block will be subject to a minimum size allocation of /28 and a maximum size allocation of /24. ARIN should use sparse allocation when possible within that /10 block."<br>
<br>
To<br>
<br>
"This block will be subject to an allocation of /24. ARIN should use sparse allocation when possible within that /10 block."<br>
<br>
Timetable for implementation: Immediate<br>

</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I am fully opposed to any proposal that allows ARIN to set the expectation that anything longer than a /24 will be reachable. </div><div><br></div>It is the long standing practice that such a small allocation is provided by the upstream from an aggregate block. <div><br></div><div>I will not be updating my prefix list filters and expanding my RIB if this passes. Those RIB spots are for ipv6, not another attempt at cgn / ipv4 life support. </div><div><br></div><div>CB<br><div><br></div><div> </div></div>
