This brings me to another of the reasons for having a range of possible
allocation sizes. If an LIR knows that they will need 4x /23 then I
would much prefer that we allocate them 1 x /21 and not 4 fragments of
address space.
The routing table size has been clearly identified is a looming problem
for the global internet. Let is not fragment the IP space any more than
we have to.
On one hand we have to manage the IPv4 addresses and on the other the
routing table size. By choosing a policy of not fragmenting the IPv4
address space further (allocating a larger block), AfriNIC will have
less IPv4 addresses to allocate to LIRs.
