Dear colleagues,
The draft document for version 2.0 of the policy proposal 2014-03,
"Remove Multihoming Requirement for AS Number Assignments" has now been
published, along with an impact analysis conducted by the RIPE NCC.
Some of the differences from version 1.0 include:
- AS Numbers can now be assigned for any need that cannot be satisfied with an
existing AS Number
- The RIPE NCC's need evaluation has been removed
- A limit of 1,000 AS Numbers per organisation has been added
- There is now a requirement that 16-bit AS Numbers be multihomed after nine
months
- The requirement that the routing policy must be new and unique has been
removed
- Related wording adjustments in the summary and rationale of the proposal
