APNIC DOCUMENT UPDATE

IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy

___________________________________________________________________

Dear colleagues

The "IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy" document was
released as a provisionally active draft on 18 December 2006. The
draft incorporated the implementation of the policy proposal:

    prop-041: IPv6 assignment size to critical infrastructure

The proposal modified 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.

The comment period for this draft has now finished and the
updated document is now officially active:
