In Past"Time-Limited" IPv4 Address Allocation
Policy

Presented by Dr. Esaki of WIDE Project at
the last 11th APNIC Open Policy Meeting

Explained Basic Leasing Policy

Received no objection at the last AMM(APNIC Member Meeting)

In Past (cont.)
Objectives
 Revitalizing the historically allocated addressspace Providing the challenge field for coming IPv6

Boosting up development of the "end-to-end"
application
 Exploring new services and business Transferring trial to IPv6 infrastructure with thepractical application and service
 Forming IPv6 address administration scheme in JP

5In Past (cont.)Address Space HandlingThe space historically allocated from IANA isutilized for this program.
The target address space: NET43 allocated to WIDE
Project at present

The organization handling the historically allocatedaddress space does the registry operating work to
LIR in somehow.
 Allocation to LIR is restricted in time of use by thecontract
 All address must be returned by the end of 2005
(transfer to IPv6)


The returned address will be returned to free block

The space historically allocated from IANA is utilizedfor this program.
 The organization handling the historically allocatedaddress space entrusts the registry work to LIR with"IPv6 Promotion Council of Japan".
 Allocation to LIR is restricted in time of use by thecontract
 All address must be returned by the end of 2005
(transfer to IPv6)

The returned address will be returned to free block

NIR supervise the registry work of IPv6 PC of Japan

Registry OperationRegistry Work
(entrusted to IPv6 Promotion Council of Japan)
 Contract conclusion
 Allocation of address for the need of next 6 months
 Status check of address usage in every three month Status check of address assignment after one year
past, and then the registry have a right to publicize
it and/or a right to get the assigned address back ifunused.
 Close relation with JPNIC as well as WIDE Project Report to APNIC and at other open opportunities

New Conditions in Contract

Introduction of "Time-Limited Lease"Contract conclusion is required prior to apply thetrial address space leasing.
Agree to become a member of IPv6 Promotion
Council of Japan
 Conclude the address lease program contractYearly leasing (automatic extension)
 Return by Dec. 2005
* After returning to the original organization, address will be
returned to free block

Agree to transfer the user's services to IPv6
 Agree to report the actual utilization of address in every
three months

14Address Leasing Guideline
Allocation Criteria
a. Be IPv4 address for this program remaining
b. Be a member of IPv6 Promotion Council of Japanc. Have concluded the program contract (must be alegal entity)d. Be the experimental usage with the written plan

For IPv6 transition
Plan must show using up /16 space within 6 months
from the initial allocation.

e. Have peering connections with four or more
providers (or planned to be so within 3 months)
15Address Leasing Guideline (cont.)

f. Have ability to execute office procedure andtechnical operation for assignment of addresses

Details are clipped.

Subsequent Allocation is 80% rule.
No subleasing is permitted.
Order to return unassigned addresses if
usage is not satisfy with the conditionin RFC2050 after 6 month and a year
Erase the Name Server Reverse
Lookup Configuration at the registry andcompensate the applicants if violatedAddress Leasing Guideline (cont.)
In the same manner, assignment
criteria has been set. (details areclipped) This policy will comply with theexisting address policy which keeps
conservation of address andaggregation of routing information.

Program timetable
First phase : July 1, 2001 - December 31, 2001
 With the part of 43/8
 Second phase : January 1, 2002 -December 31, 2002
 Examination of extending the program toanother IPv4 address space The allocated IPv4 address space must
return before December 31, 2005.
