Draft Policy 2010-14

Standardize IP Reassignment Registration Requirements

ARIN Government Working Group

30 September, 2010 – Washington, D.C.

Chris Grundemann
 The Problem
• IPv4 and IPv6 policy surrounding resource
registration are vastly different.
– IPv6 data not explicitly required to be visible in
WHOIS.
– IPv6 data not held to 7-day rule as in IPv4.
– IPv6 data recorded at the /56 level.
• “Organizational Information” required by
current policy is not defined.
– What, exactly, is actually required?
• “Residential Customer” also not defined.
– Much less Registration data required for R.C.
 The Solution (dp 2010-14)
• Phone number, street address and tech &
abuse POC explicitly required on all records.
• IPv4 and IPv6 policy identical in substance.
• Registration of /64 and larger IPv6 blocks
required.
• “Residential Customer” strictly defined.
• Also, the 24 month resource review restriction
is removed when reassignment requirements
are not being met.

 Benefit to Law Enforcement

Faster execution of warrants.

More complete data in WHOIS (phone/address) enables more accurate
first determination of responsibility.
