[address-policy-wg] 2018-02 New Policy Proposal (Assignment Clarification in IPv6 Policy)

By the way, forgot something ...

I've created an "online diff" so you can compare the actual text, with my proposal:

    Hi all,
    
    As you probably remember, during the discussion of the recently implemented 2016-04, I complained that we should not approve a policy proposal with a wording that creates (in my opinion), discrepancies between the NCC impact analysis and the policy text.
    
    I was suggested that it can always be improved ... so that's what I'm doing here.
    
    I've also suggested the same text in the other 4 RIRs with equivalent policy proposal, because all them have the same problem.
    
    The main point is to clarify the actual interpretation to make clear that it is allowed from up to a single /64, to use non-permanently, any number of addresses (not just a single one).
    
    So basically, what I'm saying is:
    1) Is not a sub-assignment a point-to-point (maximum a /64) even if this is permanent. However, the point-to-point can't be used as permanent addressing for "actual" transit (so you can't use the point-to-point addressing and then makeup an IPv6 NAT/NPT, or something similar for devices behind it).
    2) Is not a sub-assignment up to a /64 if non-permanent. Example a device in a hot-spot, with use multiple addresses (example, VMs) from a single /64, or the same situation if an employee brings any kind of device to the enterprise WiFi or wired network.
    
    This means that I'm excluding the case of a data center allocating *permanent* /64 to server interfaces (non-permanent will be ok). Remember that this is for PI, and my personal opinion on this is that, a datacenter, should be an LIR, so using PA.
    
    This is an open question here, and I may be wrong.
    
    So, what do you think on the overall proposal and specially in this last point (data center can be PI and then we should have a more complex text that allows that case)?
    
    Thanks!
    
    Regards,
    Jordi

        Dear colleagues,
        
        A new RIPE Policy proposal, 2018-02, "Assignment Clarification in IPv6 Policy" is now available for discussion.
        
        This proposal aims to clarify the definition of “Assign” in ripe-699 (section 2.6). The non-permanent provision of up to a /64 prefix to third parties shall not be considered a sub-assignment.
        
        You can find the full proposal at:
        https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2018-02
        
        As per the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP), the purpose of this four week Discussion Phase is to discuss the proposal and provide feedback to the proposer.
        
        At the end of the Discussion Phase, the proposer, with the agreement of the WG Chairs, will decide how to proceed with the proposal.
        
        We encourage you to review this proposal and send your comments to <address-policy-wg at ripe.net> before 15 May 2018.
        
        Regards,
