Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2017-12: POC Notification and Validation <br>
Upon Reassignment or Reallocation<br>
<br>
AC Assessment of Conformance with the Principles of Internet Number <br>
Resource Policy:<br>
<br>
This recommended draft policy: (1) enables fair and impartial number <br>
administration as it ensures that ARIN has the means to communicate with <br>
organizations receiving reallocations or detailed reassignments, and <br>
does so in a clear, complete, concise and unambiguous manner; (2) is <br>
technically sound in that it supports ARIN’s ability to maintain the <br>
unique registration of Internet number resources; and (3) has community <br>
support.<br>
<br>
Problem Statement:<br>
<br>
Some ISPs assign individuals to be POCs for reassigned blocks without <br>
consultation of the individual they are inserting into Whois. For <br>
example, during the reassignment/reallocation process, some large ISPs <br>
automatically create POCs from their customer’s order form. This process <br>
is automated for many ISPs and therefore the resulting POCs are not <br>
validated prior to being created in the ARIN Whois database. This <br>
creates unknowing POCs that have no idea what Whois is or even who ARIN <br>
is at the time they receive the annual POC validation email. It can also <br>
create multiple POCs per email address causing that same person to <br>
receive a multitude of POC Validation emails each year.<br>
<br>
This policy proposal seeks to prevent the situation where a POC is <br>
unwittingly and unintentionally inserted into Whois. Doing so will <br>
reduce the significant amount of time that ARIN staff spend fielding <br>
phone calls from POCs who have no idea they are in Whois.<br>
<br>
The proposal will improve the overall POC validation situation, by <br>
ensuring that all reallocation or detailed reassignment requests are <br>
related to a pre-existing receiving organization with at least one valid <br>
POC object, and by requesting that any other existing invalid POC <br>
objects are validated.<br>
<br>
Policy statement:<br>
<br>
Insert one new section into NRPM 3:<br>
<br>
3.7 POC Notification and Validation Upon Reassignment or Reallocation<br>
<br>
When a request for reallocation or detailed reassignment is made to <br>
ARIN, the receiving organization must already be in the ARIN database <br>
and associated with at least one validated POC object. If there are no <br>
validated POC objects associated with the receiving organization, ARIN <br>
shall reject the request.<br>
<br>
In addition to notifying the requester, ARIN will also notify, via <br>
email, all POCs associated with the receiving organization, whether the <br>
request was successful or not, and will request validation of any <br>
invalid POC objects associated with the receiving organization.<br>
<br>
Note: Simple reassignments are made without any linkage to an <br>
organization or POC objects in the ARIN database.<br>
