1. prop-129: Abolish Waiting
list for unmet IPv4 requests
Aftab Siddiqui

2. Problem
• The current APNIC IPv4 Policy allows each APNIC account holder to
receive up to a /22 from the IPv4 Recovered Pool after they have
received a /22 from the final /8 pool (103/8).
• As of today (27th February 2019), there are 697 members in the
waiting list. Top member is in the queue since 28th March 2017
• In 2018 APNIC received 3 x /22 (aggregated) IPv4 blocks
• There is not enough space in the recovered pool

3. Proposal
• Abolish the current waiting list
• Once the APNIC receives IPv4 recovered address space from IANA or
recovered by themselves (through closures or returns etc) then it
should be treated under the same policy as last /8 (103/8).
