Presentation given by Guangliang Pan during the 2016 China Network Information Centre Open Policy Meeting (CNNIC OPM) held on the 14 July in Hangzhou, China.
5. Current IPv4 Delegation Policy and
Practice in each region
• APNIC: Maximum /22 from final /8 (103/8). Requests for
additional /22 from recovered pool will be put into the
waiting list.
• RIPE NCC: Maximum /22 from the final /8 pool for each
member.
• ARIN has run out their IPv4 free pool. All requests will be
put into a waiting list.
• LACNIC: Maximum /22 for each member every 6 months
• AFRINIC: Expect to hit their final /8 early next year.

7. Which RIR allows IPv4 inter-RIR Transfers?
• APNIC, ARIN and RIPE NCC implemented inter-RIR IPv4
transfer policy.
• LACNIC and AFRINIC don’t have inter-RIR transfers policy.

11. Current IPv6 Delegation Policy and
Practice
• It is very easy to request IPv6 from all RIR
• APNIC members can receive their IPv6 by one-click via
MyAPNIC
• CNNIC members can request their IPv6 from CNNIC easily

15. Current ASN Delegation Policy and
Practice
• Since 2007, RIRs started to delegate 4-byte AS Numbers
• 2-byte AS Number is running out
• All RIRs assign 4-byte AS Numbers by default now
• If you request for a 2-byte AS Number, you need to prove
either your equipment or upstream does not support 4-byte

So I want to explore if this is a problem in any sense, we can see in the address distribution function. Is this something in our core mission we’ve got wrong?
What I’ve done is to examine the history of how membership and address assignment has gone, and how we stack up in IPv4 and IPv6 in terms of access to resources.
Here you can see a sample of economies worldwide, and the calculated average for all economies. The graph is the amount of IPv4 per holder. And it has formed a group at between 10,000 and around 1,000,000 Ips per holder. That’s two decimal orders of magnitude difference. If you’re on the low side, you have a significant disadvantage on these numbers

Well.. China isn’t on the low side. You did a very good job of IPv4 distribution, and its equitably come out that CN on average has above the mean worldwide. You are still facing the problem of only 100,000 Ips per holder, so there is a real issue here in the face of IoT and multiple always on devices.
SO now lets look in IPv6. And again, it forms a group

And again, China is in the lucky position of being above average. You have a significant advantage here, in terms of how much IPv6 is already distributed.
So finally for this comparison, if you look at the older history in V4, its clear China has done well: the historical allocations were well managed, and the new IPv6 allocations have been well managed. You guys did ok!
So, this isnt an allocation problem. Its not about access, its about deployment. Its about who is using the IPs
