ARIN-prop-180 ISP Private Reassignment

Proposal Originator: Yi Chu

Proposal Version: 2

Date: 2012-08-15

Proposal type: new

Policy term: permanent

Policy statement:

NRPM 4.2.3.7.1.1 and 6.5.5.1.1 ISP private reassignment
1. ARIN approval:  ISP to submit private reassignment request to ARIN 
for approval.  The info in the request is exactly the same as it would 
be for public records
2. Alignment with residential policy: Upon ARIN's approval, the ISP may 
substitute that organization's name for the customer's name, e.g. 
'Private Customer - XYZ Network', and the customer's street address may 
read 'Private'. Each private downstream reassignment must have accurate 
upstream Abuse and Technical POCs visible on the WHOIS directory record 
for that block.
3.  'Slow zone': Each ISP may only have one outstanding private 
reassignment request with ARIN.

Rationale:
Some ISP's customers wish to keep their reassignment private.  This can 
be for security reasons, to reduce their exposure to online hacking and 
targeted DDOS attack. It can also be that the customer does not have the 
staff or know-how to manage their network.  They in term outsource the 
management of their network to the upstream ISP.

Timetable for implementation: immediate
