Thank very much for taking the time to respond and with so much detail. It is very helpful information.<br>
<br>
I noticed I had a typo on our current allocation, /22 is what we have not /21. <br>
<br>
Regardless, I understand what you're saying as to engineer it properly so that as ipv6 adoption and services increase I'm not stuck with an inferior design or a broken network. 100% agree. <br>
<br>
Now we're talking about a $1500 increase in annual fees, which is not ideal but provides access to over 65k /48,,, I can see this being a better long term solution compared to ipv4 space being leased from someone else long term.<br>
<br>
Now to start evaluating our infrastructure and the new acquisition for ipv6 capabilities and upgrade path, just when I thought I had enough work to do!<br>
<br>
Thanks again for your time and advice! <br>
<br>
Best Regards, <br>
Josh Rowe <br>

you membership to vote.<p></p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">If you want, you can request a /36 of IPv6 from ARIN, and it will come at no extra charge. There will be no registration fee, and your annual subscription fee
will not change.<p></p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">From an engineering perspective, many of us do not recommend that. We recommend getting the full default prefix size – a /32 – and deploying that. Unfortunately,
that will cause your annual subscription fee with ARIN to double to $2,000. You still won’t pay a registration fee for getting the /32, but when your next annual bill is sent, it will be for $2,000 rather than $1,000.<p></p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Please keep in mind that the only realistic way I know of to get more IPv4 addresses for your new products and customers is via the IPv4 transfer market, and
that’s going to cost many, many times more than ARIN charges. Many tens of thousands of dollars, probably, depending on what you want to get. You may wish to balance the cost of obtaining more IPv4 addresses in the market with what revenue opportunities
those addresses represent, then factor in how you can (or cannot) leverage IPv6 to make those numbers work better for you. Just a suggestion, and sorry if I’m overstepping.<p></p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Well here's my scenario. My ISP is in the process of acquiring another ISP, I wrote into arin for advice of how to go about requesting additional ip space as the acquisition will take more IP addresses then
what we have left out of our current /21 allotment.<br />
<br />
I was advised to apply asap however with the depletion procedures/protocols it didn't seem likely to quickly be able to get enough blocks from the free pool.<br />
<br />
If an existing service provider such as myself would be able to get a free ipv6 allocation I would agree it would help transition to ipv6 faster as I need more IPs for my customers, infrastructure, etc.
<br />
<br />
I'd at least be more willing to try to make it work for my customer ip space since there would be little or no cost involved, now the problem that remains is the equipment compatibility and third party support of ipv6.<br />
<br />
Is it possible to still get a block to use for my ISP for $100/yr? <br />
<br />

<pre> Hello,<br /><br /> I’m requesting comment in regards to automatically make organisations<br /> eligible for IPv6 if they hold justified IPv4 space.

<pre><br />No. If you have IPv4 space already, it is incredibly easy to get IPv6. Getting the default /48 as an end-user is about as automatic as it could be, and qualifying for more is not much more effort if you have multiple sites.<br /><br />The only issue is that for end-users, you now have to pay an additional $100 per year for the IPv6 assignment.<br /><br />-Randy<p></p></pre>
