Can you still get IPv4 from APNIC?

IPv4 address transfer

What is an IPv4 address transfer?

• A transfer occurs when IPv4 addresses are moved from one legal entity (the source) to another (the recipient)

• The transfer will change the custodianship of IPv4 addresses from the source entity to the recipient

• As of today, 31 requests of IPv4 address transfer have been processed for Indonesia

7

Who can do it and how?

IPv4 address can be transferred between your organization/company and:

Other APNIC Members Member of NIRs within APNIC Member of other RIRs, e.g. ARIN

Let’s move to the next slides to see how you can do it

8

Transfer between APNIC Members

• APNIC current account holders may transfer IPv4 address blocks of /24 or greater between each other

• The addresses must be administered by APNIC

• How to initiate such transfer requests?• Source account to initiate transfer and the recipient

account to accept transfer via MyAPNIC• Recipient account to justify the needs of the

resources that will be transferred through evaluation process by APNIC

• Is there a transfer fee involved?• http://www.apnic.net/fees

9

Transfer between APNIC and NIRs

• Transfer from APNIC Member to NIRs member:

- Source account submits the request to APNIC

- APNIC contacts the recipient NIR

- Transfer request evaluated by NIR

• Transfer from NIRs member to APNIC Member:

- Source entity submits the request to their NIR

- The NIR contacts APNIC

- APNIC contacts the recipient and evaluates

Transfer with other RIR members

- Source entity submits the request to APNIC

- APNIC contacts the recipient RIR

• Transfer from other RIR member to APNIC Member:

- Source entity submits the request to their RIR

- The RIR contacts APNIC

• Transfer requests are evaluated by APNIC and the RIR

• Transfer fees? Check the APNIC and RIR websites

Tips

• IPv4 transfer pre-approval

• IPv4 transfer listing service

• Mailing list

15

IPv4 transfer pre-approval

Benefits:

• Allows you to demonstrate your need for the IPv4 block in advance

• Allows the transfer process to be completed faster as the evaluation is done beforehand

How to submit?Complete the “Transfer pre-approval” form via MyAPNIC

More info: http://www.apnic.net/pre-approval

16

Transfer pre-approval form in MyAPNIC(recipient account)

17

IPv4 transfer listing service

• Lists Members who have received pre-approval from APNIC, and have given APNIC permission to make their needs available on a public website

• To help the source account make contact with the recipient account that requires more IPv4 address

• For more information, please visit:http://www.apnic.net/pre-approval-listing

18

IPv4 transfer listing service

19

APNIC Transfer Mailing list

• Facilitates discussion on topics related to IPv4 transfers

• Shares availability of unused IPv4 address

• Discuss your requirement for IPv4 addresses

• To subscribe to the mailing list, please visit: http://www.apnic.net/mailing-lists

20

Internet resources transfer due to merger/ acquisition

• Due to organization restructure/ acquisition of one organization by another

• What documentation is required?– e.g. sales/ transfer agreement issue by local authorities

• Transfer condition: recipient account needs to become an APNIC Member

• No transfer fees are involved

• Next renewal fee is calculated based on total resource holdings

Conditions and APNIC policy

22

Why are /22s delegated by APNIC?

23

How APNIC policies are created

24

Why is policy development important?

• Fair and consistent distribution of Internet number resources

•  Anyone can participate in how Internet number resources are managed

For example:– How much Internet number resources you can get– How IP addresses are transferred

25

Current APNIC IPv4 address policy

• Friday, 15 April 2011: each APNIC account holder is only eligible to receive IPv4 address /22 from the APNIC 103/8 block

• Tuesday, 27 May 2014: each APNIC account holder became eligible to receive additional delegations up to a maximum of /22 address space from the IANA recycled pool

• Spirit of the policies: to assist existing and new Members with their IPv4 requirement during the transition to IPv6

• Indonesia has received 486144 IPv4 addresses under this policy

26

More on Policy

• Single policy document– To make it easier for users to consult the policy documentation, the

APNIC Secretariat has recently merged seven different policy documents into a single policy manual

• Policy Champions program– A campaign to encourage NOGs to participate in the Policy
