[members-discuss] Multiple LIR account mergers

The current rules are a good middle ground, however, as a relatively new ISP we can only access one /22 per LIR. Newer entities, such as us, do not have legacy IPv4 space which immediately inhibits growth and competition in the ISP marketplace.

A fairer policy would be to allocate for a LIR’s justifiable needs, taking into account their current allocations; but for RIPE to retain an override on these allocations. By monitoring for any unused space it would be possible to remove any unused to be recycled.

Also, governments and larger organisations are sat on huge IPv4 real estate that is not in use. This is another area that needs exploring.

After all, IPv6 isn’t ubiquitous yet, so something constructive has to be done.

As someone that would profit from this i am absolutely against it.

RIPE exists for specific reasons - selling out IPs is not one of them, and the legacy market as well as inter-RIR transfers cover the business needs at this time.

The current merger rules are a good middle way.

https://ip6.im<https://ip6.im/> - No RIPE LIR? Still read this email for some reason? Grab a /40 *free* IPv6 space for BGP usage. Or just get it anyway, can't hurt to have.

Hello, all.

What do you think if the NCC allow to merge accounts of the same company without 24 months restriction?

I thing this question should be discussed on the RIPE meeting in Marseille.

Kind regards,
