One of ARIN’s key responsibilities is to facilitate the Internet number resource policy development process. Working together with elected volunteers, the community at-large creates the policies that ARIN follows when reviewing requests for Internet number resources. To ensure operators in the ARIN region have full access to these important discussions, in addition to opportunities on the open public policy mailing list and ARIN public policy meetings, we would like to bring the discussion directly to the operators by requesting agenda time on the NANOG program. We are requesting agenda time because we believe Internet number resource policies that determine how operators may access Internet number resources from the registry are best discussed and developed by the operators themselves. Items that are likely to be discussed at an ARIN Public Policy Consultation in San Antonio include: Out of Region Use (of number resources including IPv6) Maintaining IN-ADDRs Removing Needs Test from Small IPv4 Transfers Change Utilization Requirements from last-allocation to total-aggregate New MDN Allocation Based on Past Utilization Modification to CI Pool Size per Section 4.4 (adding more IPv4 space to the critical infrastructure reserve) Removal of Minimum in Section 4.10 (increasing the IPv4 minimum from /28 to /24) Full text of these proposals is available at: https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/
