ARIN 35 Tutorial: Life after IPv4 depletion by Leslie Nobile. Leslie talks about the various options for obtaining IP address space as we near full IPv4 address depletion: check the available ARIN inventory; go on the waiting list, explore transfers, request IPv6.

Topic of Presentation: IPv4 Transfers
Language: Polish
Abstract: On 14 September 2012, the RIPE NCC reached its Last /8. Since then, the supply of unallocated IPv4 space has been limited to a single /22 for each Local Internet Registry. Since then there has been a growing interest in transfers of IPv4 allocations under the RIPE Transfer Policy. In this presentation I will describe the transfer process, policies and procedures in the RIPE NCC service region as well as provide the background information on how we got to this point in time and a glimpse of what will come in the future, such as inter-RIR transfers.

2. Overview
• ARIN’s current IPv4 inventory
• Trends and observations
• Ways to obtain IP addresses post IPv4
depletion
– IPv4
– Transfers
– IPv6
2
3. IPv4 Reality Check
• ARIN has already depleted some larger prefix
sizes (/8, /9, /10)
• We expect to deplete to the /16 level in the
near future
• Soon after that, only /24s will remain
• Eventually, only blocks reserved via policy will
remain in ARIN’s inventory
3
4. Current IPv4 Inventory
Other inventory:
• Quarantined space (60 day hold)
– ~19 /16 equivalents held in “quarantine” to clear filters
(returned and revoked space)
• Reserved space
– 64 /16s (1 /10) for NRPM 4.10 “Dedicated IPv4 block to
facilitate IPv6 Deployment”
– 218 /24s remaining in the /16 for NRPM 4.4 “Micro-allocation”
– ~8 /16 equivalents needing further research (reclaimed space
that needs further chain of custody research)
Available inventory:
.24 /8 equivalent .24

5. Current IPv4 Prefix Inventory

Block Size (CIDR) Number of Blocks Available
/11 1
/12 1
/13 2
/15 1
/16 1
/18 1
/19 1
/20 3
/21 55
/22 26
/23 221
/24 668
6. Current IP Resource Inventory-
Extended FTP Stats
• Joint project, provided by all 5 RIRs
– Accountability and Transparency
• Shows which RIR is responsible for which resources
• Identifies inconsistencies and overlaps
• Daily snapshot of all ARIN issued resources; available
resources; and reserved resources
– All “other inventory” from previous slide shows up as reserved
– Note that 8.3 transfers show up as issued, but 8.2 transfers do
not as they retain their original issue date

7. Can ARIN’s IPv4 Free
Pool Increase?
• 4 ways that IPv4 addresses get back into
ARIN’s free pool
– Return = voluntary
– Revoke = for cause (usually non-payment)
– Reclaim = fraud or business dissolution
– IANA issued – per global policy for “post exhaustion
IPv4 allocation mechanisms by IANA”
• /11 (issued 5/14), /12 (issued 9/14) and /13 (issued in 3/15)
by IANA to each RIR
• 3.54 total /8s recovered by ARIN since 2005

~5,000 ISP subscriber members as of April 1, 2015

10. Options for Growing Your
Network Post-IPv4 Depletion
• Check ARIN inventory to see if anything new
has been added
• Apply for IPv4 resources and opt to be placed
on the waiting list
• Explore market transfers (NRPM 8.3 or 8.4)
– Utilize Specified Transfer Listing Service (STLS)
– Get pre-approved for 8.3 or 8.4 transfer
• Request IPv6 resources
10
11. Updated daily
@ 12AM ET
IPv4 inventory
published on
ARIN’s website:
www.arin.net
Check ARIN’s IPv4 Inventory
As of 09 April 2015, ARIN has 0.24 /8 equivalents
of IPv4 address space remaining
11
12. IPv4 Waiting List
• Starts when ARIN can’t fill a qualified request
(approved prefix size not in inventory)
– Option to specify smallest acceptable block size
– If no block available between approved and
smallest acceptable, option to go on a waiting list
of pre-qualified recipients
• Oldest request filled first (based on approval
date)
– E.g. - if ARIN gets a /16 back and the oldest request
is for a /24, we issue a /24 to that org
• One approved request on list at a time
• Limit of one allocation or assignment every 3
months12
13. Types of Transfers
• Mergers and Acquisitions (NRPM 8.2)
• Transfers to Specified Recipients (NRPM
8.3)
• Inter-RIR transfers (NRPM 8.4)
13
14. Transfers to Specified
Recipients (NRPM 8.3)
• Allows orgs with unused IPv4 resources to
transfer them to orgs in need of IPv4
resources
• Source
– Must be current registrant, no disputes
– Not have received addresses from ARIN for 12
months prior
– Ineligible for further addresses from ARIN for 12
months after
• Recipient
– Must demonstrate need for 24-month supply
under current ARIN policy
14
15. Inter-RIR Transfers (NRPM 8.4)
• RIR must have reciprocal, compatible needs-
based policies
– Currently APNIC, soon to be RIPE NCC
• Transfers from ARIN
– Source cannot have received IPv4 from ARIN 12
months prior to transfer or receive IPv4 for 12
months after transfer
– Source must be legitimate holder of space
– Recipient meets destination RIR policies
• Transfers to ARIN
– Recipient meets ARIN policies
15
16. Specified Transfer Listing Service
(STLS)
• Voluntary service intended to facilitate
specified transfers (8.3 and 8.4)
• All participants have access to each others
contact information
– Listers: have available IPv4 addresses
• Resources must be covered under RSA/LRSA
– Needers: looking for IPv4 addresses
• Must be pre-approved under ARIN policy to be listed
– Facilitators: available to help listers and needers find
each other
• Public summary provided
– Lists number of available and needed IPv4 address
blocks
16
17. Pre-approvals for Specified
Transfers (NRPM 8.3)
• Pre-approval based on 24 month need
– Valid for 2 years, not subject to re-
verification within that timeframe
• Must meet current ARIN policy
• Accessed in ARIN on-line account via
the “Transfer Resources” button
17
18. Tips for Faster Processing
• Make sure you are applying under the correct
transfer policy
• Make sure that all registration information is
current and accurate
• Involve ARIN as early as possible
– Make sure a contemplated specified transfer meets
ARIN requirements before finalizing
• Use ARIN’s STLS or request pre-approval in
advance of the transfer
• Provide detailed information to support 24
month need
18
19. Requesting IPv6 - ISPs
• ISP Criteria
– Have a previous v4 allocation from ARIN
OR
– Intend to multi-home
OR
– Provide a technical justification which
details at least 50 assignments made within
5 years
19
20. Data ARIN Will Typically
Ask For - ISPs
• If requesting more than a /32, a
spreadsheet/text file with
– # of serving sites (PoPs, datacenters)
– # of customers served by largest serving site
– Block size to be assigned to each customer
(/48 typical)
20
21. Requesting IPv6 – End Users
• End user criteria
– Have a v4 direct assignment
OR
– Intend to multi-home
OR
– Show how you will use 2000 IPv6 addresses
or 200 IPv6 subnets within a year
OR
– Technical justification as to why provider-
assigned IPs are unsuitable
21
22. Data ARIN Will Typically Ask
For – End users
• If requesting more than a /48, a
spreadsheet/text file with
– List of sites in your network
• Site = distinct geographic location
• Street address for each
– Campus may count as multiple sites
• Technical justification showing how they’re
configured like geographically separate sites
22
23. Summary
• ARIN will deplete its IPv4 available pool
sometime this year
• There are still ways to obtain IPv4 address
space
– Returns/revocations/reclamations/IANA
distributions into the free pool
– Special use policies (reserved /10 for IPv6
facilitation, reserved /16 for micro-
allocations)
– Market transfers
• IPv6 is abundant and easy to qualify for!
