Hello , I want to ask about PI assigned address space. The best example is my own one which good show us bad idea of assigning exactly size than user require.. Today we got very bad organisation in world BGP table.. a lot of bad aggregated prefixes etc.. so carrier providers from day to day 8-) move filter mask to right... now ie. Sprint: http://www.sprint.net/policy/bgp_filters.html: [...] Customers may announce routes as small as /26 for IP address blocks obtained through Sprint. Announcements for blocks obtained from other providers are limited to a /24 or smaller mask (/23, /22 etc.). This applies only to Sprint customers; peers are bound by a much stricter prefix policy. [...] so if RIPE will assing PI requests addresses exactly as written in ripe-141 from we give our clients big chance that they will be filtered. The of course aware about it .. but.. when we have /24 we got 70% chance to filtered with.... ie. /26 we got 40% and less.. so it can effect in one bad situation.. ripe forms written for PI assign policy and requests of /24 or smaller for route security and out customers become unhappy... IMHO one way is change our LAW to be good for mass not for goverment only 8-) so i please you to made some updates and assign PI depend on actually known filtered size in carrier networks... in europe and whole world PS: sorry for my bad english and grammar 8-| here is some sentences from ripe-127 8-) thank you! [bof] [...] Document: ripe-127 Assignment Policies [...] ments etc.. This also implies that assigning PI space prefixes longer than 24 bits is perfectly acceptable if the request does not merit 8 bits of address space to be assigned. [...] Detailed Recommendations [...] Assignment of this address space is valid as long as the criteria for the original assignment are still met. However, assignment of address space does NOT imply that this address space will be ROUTABLE ON ANY PART OF THE INTERNET.
