HD-ratio for IPv4-A new criteria for applying IP allocation NCIC 新世紀資通股份有限公司 Mars Wei 危之華 2004/11/24 @ 3rd TWNIC OPM
Current Criteria for applying IPv4 allocation • First Time • /23 needed immediately and /22 in a year to allocate /21, the minimum space • Subsequence • Fix utilization as 80% required for total past allocations • Including assignment and sub-allocation • Document plans required HD-ratio for IPv4
Why HD-ratio for IPv4? • Difficulty for large ISP to reach 80% utilization • No allowance for hierarchy in managing IP address allocation • One 80% rule fits all size is unfair • Variable % utilization required • Different % threshold for different sized IP address allocation HD-ratio for IPv4
NIR ISP … Customers and Infrastructure More ‘efficient’ with less hierarchy Source: APNIC HD-ratio for IPv4
‘Efficiency’ loss through hierarchy NIR ISP Regions/POPs “Internal” Hierarchy Services … Customers and Infrastructure Deeper hierarchy = lower efficiency Source: APNIC HD-ratio for IPv4
What is HD-ratio for IPv4? • Host Density Ratio • RFC 3194 • For IP address • HD-ratio has been adopted to IPv6 HD-ratio for IPv4

Status • First idea presented in APNIC 16 as an informational item • http://www.apnic.net/meetings/16/programme/sigs/policy.html • Posted to APNIC sig-policy mailing list as a proposal on Aug 4, 2004 • http://www.apnic.net/mailing-lists/sig-policy/archive/2004/08/msg00001.html • Presented as a proposal in APNIC 18 and still an open item for APNIC secretariat to conduct a survey • http://www.apnic.net/meetings/18/programme/minutes/policy.html#4 HD-ratio for IPv4
What’s the next step in Taiwan? HD-ratio for IPv4
