[members-discuss] IPV4 Addresses

Hi,

With IPv4 running out and LIRs only being allowed final /22 in my view makes it unfair to new members who may need additional addresses.

With some of the other LIRs having for example /19 unused makes it unfair for them to advertise their unused address space on the transfer service and want to charge up words of £8 per IP Address.

Given the fact the IP Addresses is a public resource, I fail to see how it should be allowed for LIRs to make a profit out of unused space.

There should be a policy and if the address space is not used / required, it must be handed back to the public pool of resources so can then be allocated to other LIRS as part of their annual membership.

I even recall the Government sitting on "I believe" a /8 and then tried to sell this off to raise money. Again this should not be allowed. LIRS should NOT be able to make profit for selling a public resource.


Regards
Dave
