Ways to get IPv4 in the AP region

• Rationing APNIC’s ‘last block’ of IPv4

• IPv4 address transfer

• Recycling returned IPv4 address space

3

Rationing the ‘last block’

• APNIC’s last remaining block is 103.0.0.0/8– Equal to 16,777,216 addresses

• Each member can only get up to 1,024 addresses (/22)

• Allows new members to get a little bit of IPv4 before it completely runs out

4

IPv4 address transfer

• Transfer is allowed through:– Merger & Acquisition– Needs based market transfer

• Needs based market transfer– The recipient (or buyer) must show evidence of need before a

transfer can be registered by APNIC– Policy designed by the community to prevent hoarding

As at 31 July 2014

Recycling returned IPv4 address space• Address space returned to IANA will be re-distributed

equally to all 5 Regional Internet Registries– prop-105: Distribution of returned IPv4 address

– implemented May 2014

• The re-distributed space received by APNIC will be rationed like the ‘last block’– A member can only get up to 1,024 addresses (/22) from recycled

pool

IPv4 sourcing strategy in AP

• If needing a large number of IPv4 addresses, consider market transfer by following these steps:1. Get pre-approval from APNIC

2. Find a source (seller or broker)• Check apnic-transfer@apnic.net mailing list

3. Execute the transfer and register it at APNIC

• If needing just a small amount of IPv4 addresses for your corporate customer, consider signing them up as an APNIC member– Get up to 1,024 addresses (/22) from last block – And up to 1,024 addresses (/22) from recycled pool

Current discussions – need input

• prop-111-v003 Request-based expansion of IPv6 default allocation size– Eligibility to receive or extend IPv6 address space to /29– Explain how requested space will be used

IANA Oversight Transition

• October 2013: Internet’s technical organizations signed Montevideo Statement calling for globalization of ICANN and IANA functions

• January 2014: APNIC EC endorsed statement

• March 2014: US Government announced IANA functions will be transferred to global Internet community
