Re: IPv6 WG Consensus call: draft-ietf-ipv6-ula-central-01.txt

[Tim Chown <tjc at ecs.soton.ac.uk>]

For info, the copy of the ARIN proposal I have seen says:

"   6.11 Assignments to End-sites with Autonomous System Numbers

     Any  end-site which meets the current criteria for assignment of an
     autonomous  system  number  (ASN)  shall  also qualify for one IPv6
     prefix  assignment  of  the  minimum  size justified under the ARIN
     guidelines  for  assignment by an LIR. If the organization grows to
     require more space, it will not be entitled to an additional block,
     but  rather  may obtain a new, replacement block of sufficient size
     to  meet  its needs in exchange for making the commitment to return
     its existing block within 24 months, so that it may be reassigned."

Presumably if the end-site wishes to route the /32(?) globally as PI then
it is probably likely to need an ASN anyway?   

But it could be a /48, as per the IX allocations, presumably?
