[sig-policy] Implementation of prop-041: IPv6 assignment size to critical , infrastructure

[Son Tran <son@apnic.net>]

Dear colleagues

The APNIC Secretariat has now implemented the policy proposal:

    prop-041: IPv6 assignment size to critical infrastructure

The proposal modifies the last sentence of section 5.8.2 of the "IPv6
Address Allocation and Assignment Policy" to read:

    "The maximum assignment made under these terms is /32 per
    operator."

Consensus on the proposal was reached at APNIC 22 and endorsed by the
Executive Council (EC) on 15 December 2006. As noted in the APNIC 22
presentation on the proposal, implementation was to occur immediately
following EC endorsement.

Details of the original proposal and links to discussions are available
