[address-policy-wg] 2015-01 New Policy Proposal (Alignment ofTransfer Requirements for IPv4 Allocations)

Hello,

It is not the value, motivating use of CGNs. It is the depletion of IPV4.
When you don't have enough IPs, to serve your customers, you will do any 
possible technical
solutions, like using CGNs.

Although I do agree with you that commercial companies are seeing it as you 
mentioned.

Kind Regards,
Saeed.

If this is the case, then the customers will not be put behind CGN because
the business case of putting them behind CGN isn't there anymore. The
customers are only put behind CGN because iPv4 addresses have value.
You're saying they have no value, thus there is no driver to sell them,
thus no reason to put customers behind CGN (prematurely).
