An update on policy changes that are no longer under discussion, because they have been adopted by the ARIN Board and implemented by ARIN staff. While these policies will not be discussed at ARIN XXIX, they are important to understand for two reasons. First, they have altered the ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM) which may affect your next interaction with ARIN. Second, they provide some background and history on the current policy debates. You may be able to glean a sense of where the ARIN community’s focus is (or at least has most recently been) by understanding the policy changes which have made it through to adoption following the previous PPM.

Not overly surprisingly, APNIC officially received two more IPv4 /8 (“slash eights”) from the IANA today: Hi, The IANA IPv4 registry has been updated to reflect the allocation of two IPv4 /8 blocks to APNIC in January 2011: 39/8 and 106/8. 39/8 APNIC 2011-01 whois.apnic.net ALLOCATED 106/8 APNIC 2011-01 whois.apnic.net ALLOCATED [...]

Different people had different reasons for doing so and some were likely ulterior. Since then, all of the reputable folks focusing on IPv6 deployment have removed these alarmists and distanced themselves from [...]

Here we go again! As what might be my last act as a “regular” member of the ARIN community, I have decided to launch a discussion petition of ARIN-prop-125, Efficient Utilization of IPv4 Requires Dual-Stack.
