Supporting IPv6 Deployment Through Policy
• 4 min read
It was about one year ago that the RIPE community reached consensus on a policy proposal that introduced additional criteria for initial IPv6 allocations. We thought it was time to look back at the origins of this proposal and see how the change has worked out since.
Hello ExSiXXsuser, Neither the RIPE IPv6 policies in the early 2000 nor the current IPv6 policy contain a specific recommendation or mandate for LIRs to assign static prefixes to customers. The current IPv6 policy mentions the minimum value of a /64 but makes no comments about static or dynamic assignments. https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-684#assignment You might be interested to know that currently the RIPE BCOP TF is working on a document that seems to deal with situation like yours http://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/draft-IPv6pd-BCOP-v1.pdf Maybe you are interested to join that discussion?
