Válasz: [GLOBAL-V6] Detailed summary of RIPE and APNIC discussions

[turchanyi.geza@ln.matav.hu]

Anne,

many thanks for your excellent summary.

I would like to add some new arguments, and raise some question marks.

1, The main goal is that ISP-s and end-users should have enough address space,
OK. However, allocating address space for a LIR for ever, and assigning address
space to end-users for ever is wrong in my view. Allocation an assignement
should be long enough, however, not for ever.

LIR and and user should have addresses always, however, not necessary the old
one. Might be from new blocks, and according to the new policy, if a new policy
should be created. The period of forced transition should be long enough that
will allow a smooth transition for all parties.

Without this expiration mechanism it would be difficult to reach the most
important goal: effective aggregation.
AND, if there are unforeseen side effects of the address allocation and
assignement mechanism applied, then this can be corrected later on: the expired
addresses will be available for reuse after a while.

In practice,  any network will be redesigned after a while. If an end-user can
have a new range for the new designe, the old range of addresses can be given
back when the last box of the old network will be switched off (or had been
renumbered). Similarly an ISP can move the a new range off addresses, however,
this need more time, as all the end-user should leave the old address range.

The question is, what would be a resonable time frame for address allocation and
address assignement. I would like to listen for the others, what they think
about.

2, I agree that privacy has high importance. First of all, if my privacy is not
hurt.

However, I have bad experiences of .spam and .hacker companies, and do not realy
want that even .spam and .hacker registry should exist.

I fully agree, that the original proposal not intented to support Mr.Spam,
however, there are side effects, always...

Best regards,
          Geza
