History & Evolution The RIR System
RFC 790 1981 Pre 1992 “The assignment of numbers is also handled by Jon. If you are developing a protocol or application that will require the use of a link, socket, port, protocol, or network number please contact Jon to receive a number assignment.”
1992 RFC 1366 Geographic Allocations
1993 RFC 1466 1993
1996 RFC 2050 1996
1998 ICANN / ASO MoU GAC 1999
Structure The RIR System
Fee for Services • Open Financial Reporting • Open to All Interested Parties • Consists of Thousands • ISPs • Other Companies • Stakeholders • Elect Executive Board • Approve Activities
IPv4 & IPv6 • AS Numbers • Whois Directory • Internet Routing Registry • Reverse DNS • In-addr.arpa • Ip6.arpa • Meetings • Elections • Web Site • Information • Training • Email Discussion Lists • Public Policy Meetings • Publication of Policy Documents
ASO Secretariat • ASO AC Support • General Assembly • Registration Services • Policy • Documentation • Engineering • Outreach • Presentations • Meetings and Presentations • Government representatives • Industry groups • IPv6 Forum • Training Programs
IP Address Management The RIR System
IP Addressing • What is an IP Address? • How is IP Address Space Managed?
What is an IP Address? • A Number Used for Routing • Not Dependent on Domain Name System • A Finite Public Resource • Not Owned • IP Does Not Mean“Intellectual Property”
How is IP Address Space Managed • Address Space Management Objectives • Implementation of Policy
Efficient Use of Resources • Allocation Based on Need • Limit Routing Table Growth • Support Provider-Based Routing Policies • Ensure Uniqueness • Trouble Shooting
Policy Implementation[ Industry Self-Regulation ] • RIR Staffs • Publish Policy Documents • Publish Procedure Documents • Implement Policy • ISP/LIR • Develop Internal Procedures • Implement Policy
Internet Number Resource Management Policy Development [Industry Self-Regulation] The RIR System
How is IP Address Policy Developed? • According to Policy Development Principles • In a Cyclical Manner
Policy Development Principles • Transparent • Mail List Archives • Minutes • Policy Fora • RIR Boards • Documented • Formal Policy Documents • Implementation Procedures • Open • Anyone Can Participate • Policy Fora • Mail Lists • Developed Bottom-Up • Internet Community • Stakeholders • Technology Changes • IETF
Policy Development Cycle • Put Into Practice • Staff • ISP/LIR Email Lists Open Policy Meetings Consensus Implement Discuss Effect on Industry Interaction with Technolgy Need Evaluate Technology Changes Industry Requirements Structured Assessment Process
Upcoming Public Policy Meetings • ARIN (2 per year) October ** ARIN XII – Chicago, IL, US • LACNIC (2 per year) November ** LACNIC V – Havana, Cuba • RIPE NCC (3 per year) 12 – 16 May ** RIPE 45 – Barcelona, Spain • APNIC (2 per year) 19 – 22 Aug ** APNIC 16 – Seoul, South Korea
