[address-policy-wg] Comment on 2006-05 (PI Assignment Size)

Tue Oct 24 13:02:29 CEST 2006

Hello,

I support the 2006-05 proposal. We have one client who insisted
on getting PI space, but they qualified for at most /27. Then we
had to actually request that /27 and have them expierience what
prefix filtering does to small PI networks.

Alternative way to solve this would be to designate one /8 (or longer;
divided among regional registries) that contained only prefixes
longer than /24. It would allow for small PI's, be easy to configure
filters for, and have a limited influence on global routing table size.
But it would need agreement all over the internet.

Best Regards,
