Hi, I support this proposal. The change allows large organizations with complex network infrastructures or special purposes the deployment of ipv6 based on a complete, useful structured and sustainable ipv6 address plan.

If the proposal is accepted, we would base our evaluation of IPv6 requests on the number of actual end sites. An LIR could then document its need for addresses according to a range of criteria such as longevity, security requirements for an end site, or the need for aggregation in the hierarchy level of that end site and higher levels in the network topology. This is what is meant by encapsulation of the assignment. An end site cannot be repeated in another part of the addressing plan to qualify again under the same assessment criteria -- this would be a multiplication of the same assignment. So, for example, it would be possible to request extra address space for security and above hierarchy for the same end site, but it would not be possible to mention the same end site again in another part of the addressing plan to request a further reservation for security and hierarchy. I hope this helps.
