Draft Policy ARIN-2019-19: Require IPv6 Before Receiving Section 8 IPv4
Transfers
Problem Statement:
On 7 May 2007 the ARIN Board unanimously passed an IPv6 resolution. In
2011, the last /8 blocks were assigned to the RIR’s and has now been
over 4 years since the IPv4 free pool was exhausted at ARIN.
Now is the time for ARIN to require those who receive transferred IPv4
space to have in place an operational IPv6 network.
Policy statement:
In section 8.5.2, add the following language to the end of the paragraph
entitled “Operational Use”:
Such operational network must at minimum include an allocation or
assignment by ARIN of IPv6 address space under the same Org ID receiving
the transferred IPv4 space. Such Org must be able to prove this IPv6
space is being routed by using it to communicate with ARIN.
In the event the receiver provides a written statement from its upstream
that IPv6 connectivity is unavailable, the IPv6 requirement may be waived.
Timetable for Implementation: Upon Passage
Anything Else:
The following was included in the IPv6 resolution:
BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby requests the ARIN
Advisory Council to consider Internet Numbering Resource Policy changes
advisable to encourage migration to IPv6 numbering resources where possible.
This proposal is part of an effort to encourage migration to IPv6.
