To qualify under this policy, the organization must provide justification that each network is discrete, per the criteria described in section 4.5. Each discrete network must meet the projection requirements in section 8.5.5, and each discrete network for which IP addresses are requested must meet the utilization requirements in section 8.5.6. Organizations may receive one or more transfers up to the total size of their current ARIN IPv4 address holdings, up to a maximum size of /16.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Comments: None<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Timetable for implementation: Any<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
