| Proposal text | prop-091-v001 |
|---|---|
| Synopsis |
This is a proposal to modify the policies for distribution of the "final /8" to only apply to a specific /9 block of the final /8, on the basis that the current policies would unnecessarily prevent the use of over 8 million IPv4 addresses that otherwise should be used to enable user connections. |
