No.   We need to try harder.

It took 20 years to agree IPv6.  Next time around the change will be even 
harder.  We should expect that IPv6 will last at least the next 50 years.

That's seems to be the most egregious excuse for not doing things correctly now 
- "It doesn't matter because we're going to replace it anyway".  An argument 
that could be applied to IPv7, 8 and so on.

Re: [sig-policy] prop-111-v004: Request-based expansion of IPv6 default allocation size (SECURITY=UNCLASSIFIED)

2014-09-17 Thread Skeeve Stevens
Ok, thinking about this some more, I am still conflicted.

There are two schools here... simplicity and conservation.

I think worrying about conservation is important.  But are we trying to
converse needlessly?

If we think we will be using v6 in 20 years, I think we are kidding
ourselves.  With the IoE/IoT, the consumption of address space is going to
accelerate in a huge way.  If we're not thinking about what is after IPv6,
then we're doing ourselves a disservice anyway. But that is the future, and
extremely difficult to predict in this area.

I think simplicity is better in this case... except if it is not really
simple.  If we have to alter a significant amount of policy to make it
simpler, then it isn't really simple.

The question is, how critical is this at the moment?  I'd like to see thing
simpler, but I'd like to know how complex it would be to implement it -
correctly.

[sig-policy] Crowd Sourcing for Translation

2014-09-17 Thread Skeeve Stevens
Based on a discussion at APNIC 38 regarding translation inside APNIC,
specifically related to barriers to involvement in the Policy Development
Process.

Some services for stakeholders to consider.

http://www.oneskyapp.com/translation-management/manage-global-content/

http://www.crosslang.com/en/translation-management/crowdsourcing-platforms

https://www.getlocalization.com/

http://www.moravia.com/en/services/managed-services/multilingual-crowdsourcing/

The last one, Moravia has 80% of crowd sourced projects within 24 hours...

There is no reason that translation has to be done by the RIR community
themselves, but by the wider world... surely the cost in this would be much
cheaper.

I have two concerns. I'm sorry for repeating these.

1. LIRs in legacy space, who has been tackling IPv6 deployment from
   the early stage could not expand their address space to /28. I
   think it's not fair.

2. If we employ 'nibble boundary' allocation for technical reasons,
   the additional subsequent allocation should be /24, /20, and so on.
   It might be meaningless if only first allocation aligns.  To do
   that, I think we need difference proposal since there will be so
   big changes in our policy.

And one more, ARIN implements totally different address allocation
scheme, which discussed also in our APNIC region as prop-098. I'm not
sure but nibble boundary allocation scheme will be suitable under that
policy.

Yours Sincerely,

Elvis,

Owens position has been quite simply explained.

He does NOT oppose the increase in the size of the allocation just just
wants it done more cleanly.

Deans argument is that this will potentially waste additional space.

I see, and actually agree with both positions...   I like to conserve
address space, but Owens point is very valid... even if 1 million
organisations took a /28, it would still make minimal impact on the address
space over a significant period.

But, planning for the future is something we should keep in our mind...
but, not at the detriment of todays operations.

His point of the number of name servers for reverse delegation for a /29
being 8 and a /28 being 1 is quite a compelling reason to increase the
default 'larger' allocation to /28.

So... balancing the two.. I support increasing the standard large
allocation to a /28.

Hi Elvis,

Thnak you for your comments!

 | This proposal has been already made and approved/implemented (May2012)
 | in the RIPE Region and as far as I can see, it was a good proposal and
 | it has not caused any problems.
 | 
 | The /29s are reserved anyway, why not allow the LIRs to use them if
 | they need a larger/additional block?
 | From my experience, some LIRs may need more than just the /32 used for
 | their main/primary network in order to test in a separate network a
 | transitioning protocol or equipment. For this reason only I think that
 | keeping the /29 reserved and not allocated is a waste.

I'll introduce situation of ripe region in my presentation.

Nothing at all… Simply pointing out that there is experience with such a policy

Fair enough. So if policy up to a /29 works well and policy allowing /28s works 
well, why not favor /28s over /29s? What is the advantage of /29s?

I’m not favoring disapproval of this policy. I’m favoring modifying it to allow 
/28s.

When computing net masks and which networks are within/outside of a given 
prefix, things which fall on nibble boundaries are readily visible to human 
eyes.

If I have a prefix, for example, of 2620:0:930::/48, I know that anything which 
starts with 2620:0:930:… is within that prefix.

If I make it a /29, then instead of 2620:0:930:… it becomes 2620:0:930:0… 
through 2620:0:930:7…

It’s even worse for 28s vs. 29s… For example, 2601:5ca0::/28 includes 
everything that starts with 2601:5ca?:…
However, 2601:5ca8::/29 is everything from 260:15ca8:… thru 2601:5caf:…

Delegating a /29 requires 8 NS records per name server serving the ip6.arpa 
zones in question.
Delegating a /28 requires 1.

I believe that RPKI has similar issues to DNS.

Perhaps it is because you are not technical and have not had an operational

Hi Owen,

what has ARIN to do with the policy in APNIC?
I could also justify my arguments by saying that the RIPE policy allows 
up to a /29 per member.. and that policy works very well as well.


Let's not use other regions' policies to justify disapproval of this 
policy proposal. Especially when both ARIN and RIPE have different 
policies that work very well.


I would like to ask you to explain what kind of errors/difficulties may 
induce the allocation of a /29 (instead of a /28) in regards to RPKI and 
DNSSSEC. I do not really understand that part (sorry, I am not very 
technical). If it's fat-fingering you are talking about, that can happen 
regardless of the size of the allocation.


I find it surprising that you oppose to a policy proposal that would 
allow members of APNIC to use more IPv6 addresses just because the 
policy does not say 'more than more' (/28s instead of /29s).


cheers,
elvis

Yes, I still feel it misses my point completely.
I have no problem with expanding the existing reservations which are 
bounded at /29 to /29.
I don’t want to see us move the default allocation in the sparse 
allocation world to larger than /32. Larger than /32 should require

Further, I don’t want to see us creating a default at a non-nibble

2014-09-17 Thread Owen DeLong
Absolutely… That is current policy in the ARIN region and it is working well.

The reality is that the amount saved by doing non-nibble boundary allocations 
is insignificant compared to the likely increase in human factors related 
errors induced and other varieties of inconvenience (RPKI difficulties, DNSSEC 
difficulties, etc.)

In reality, there are probably well under 1,000,000 organizations that could 
justify more than a /28 (i.e. a /24) world wide. Probably at most a few million 
ISPs that would be able to justify more than a /32 (i.e. a /28, serving more 
than 50,000 customers), I think we’re fine.

If it turns out I’m wrong and we burn through 2000::/3 this way in less than 50 
years, than I will happily admit it and help anyone who is interested draft 
more restrictive policies for the remaining untouched ~3/4 of IPv6 address 
space.

So far, we haven’t even managed to polish off a /12 in any region.

Re: [sig-policy] prop-111-v004: Request-based expansion of IPv6 default allocation size (SECURITY=UNCLASSIFIED)

2014-09-17 Thread Dean Pemberton
That's one of my concerns Elvis...

If we accept the argument that we'll only allocate on hex-char
boundaries, then it means that we're wasting more and more addresses
as time goes by.  We'll be having this discussion in a little while
about /24s rather than /27s then it will be /20s rather than..

I once had someone swear that they would never use the 'letters' in
the IPv6 address because it made the addresses look 'strange'.  They
ended up wasting over a third of their address space.  What is being
suggested here is almost as crazy.

Regards,
Dean

2014-09-17 Thread Elvis Velea

Hi Owen and Mike,

can you explain why /28 and not /29?

Why waste so much and use only nibble boundaries? What would you accept 
if someone needs more than a /28, allocation of a /24?


Kind regards,
Elvis

Yes, I still feel it misses my point completely.

I have no problem with expanding the existing reservations which are 
bounded at /29 to /29.


I don't want to see us move the default allocation in the sparse 
allocation world to larger than /32. Larger than /32 should require 
additional justification for those blocks.


Further, I don't want to see us creating a default at a non-nibble 
boundary. For organizations that show need for larger than a /32, I 
would support a default of /28, but will continue to oppose a default 
expansion to /29.

Yes, I still feel it misses my point completely.

I have no problem with expanding the existing reservations which are bounded at 
/29 to /29.

I don’t want to see us move the default allocation in the sparse allocation 
world to larger than /32. Larger than /32 should require additional 
justification for those blocks.

Further, I don’t want to see us creating a default at a non-nibble boundary. 
For organizations that show need for larger than a /32, I would support a
