| Regarding the assignment size, when we held JP Open Policy | Meeting last week, there are many voices saying that | varying assignment size is too much impact on the current | commercial service not in its network operation but also | for the low-cost routing devices handling /48. | According to them, they have already been in service, | so they consider that it is not practical to change the | assignment policy. But at the same time, ISPs need to make | their best effort to achieve the goal of "conservation" still | existing in the policy even it is not the first priority.
Actually, some providers have already assigned /48 based on current recommendation in their commercial service, and as Kosuke said, it will have a large impact to change the assignemnt size. I've looked up the assignemnt size used in JP regison: http://www.apnic.net/meetings/18/docs/sigs/policy/policy-pres-tomohiro-ipv6-endusers.pdf This is slightly dated information, and recently, at least one provider has been starting commercial IPv6 services with /48 assignment. This service is targeted on residential users. | Is it practical to change in other regions? I also would like to know about this. -- Tomohiro Fujisaki -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list ipv6@ietf.org Administrative Requests: https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
