I was planning on writing this great breakthrough piece on IPv6 subnet sizes, like how many /48s are in a /32 or how many /56s are in a /24, etc… But then I stumbled across a great PDF from ARIN and realized that all the work was already done. So I ended up not posting [...]

There are folks who have, in the past, cried wolf with regard to IPv4 free pool depletion and the need for IPv6 adoption. 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 [...]

In the second half of 2010 the American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) started sending emails to all Points Of Contact (POCs) registered in the ARIN Whois database. Since then, I have been seeing more and more chatter about these emails – including increased traffic here on my blog. Because I am at least partially [...]

I am humbled and honored to be selected to serve on the AC at this key time in the Internet’s history. In less than a year (likely far less), we will run out of free/unallocated IPv4 addresses.

I salute everyone willing to take on that burden and am extremely grateful that you selected me to continue my work in this area as a member of the AC.

I have been asked to present draft policy 2010-14 to the ARIN Government Working Group (AGWG) during their meeting tomorrow morning. The proposed policy formally codifies many best current practices for IPv4 reassignment registration and fills in many holes in current IPv6 WHOIS policy as well.

ARIN XXVI is fast approaching and that means that the 2010 ARIN Elections are almost upon us. First and foremost I would like to remind/encourage/demand that everyone who is eligible to vote gets registered! The dead line to register is Tuesday, 21 September – which is only 4 days away! As I reported in an [...]

Global Policy for IPv4 Allocations by the IANA Post Exhaustion I have been working with a team of other concerned netizens on a new global policy proposal since the spring ARIN meeting in Toronto. It started as a lunch time conversation and grew from there. The idea was spurred by last year’s attempt to enact [...]
