For the intended purpose ("give people a /24 that do not have the necessary amount of machines and do not want to lie to the NCC") it should not pose a problem - you have 3 machines plus a router, you need 4 addresses = /29. Add 248 addresses, reach /24. The emphasis is "additional" = "in addition to the addresses the requester can justify". The stopgap function is: if the same entity comes back three months later and asks for another /29-to-be-extended-to-a-/24, they won't get it. "Fill your existing /24 first." If that's not sufficiently clear, we might need to reword. Gert Doering -- APWG chair -- did you enable IPv6 on something today...? SpaceNet AG Vorstand: Sebastian v.
