Since when has this been a requirement?
Section 2.4 of ripe-699 defines LIRs and describes them as "primarily"
providing addresses for network services that they provide. Have I
misunderstood the policy, or is there currently a requirement that LIR
provide network connectivity to the users of the addresses they assign or
sub-allocate?
It's not a formal requirement but, de-facto, if the holder of PA
resources wants connectivity, they have to get it from the LIR.
Otherwise, why would there be a necessity for
"provider-aggregateable" resources?
