About APNIC (recap)
• Regional Internet Registry (RIR)– For the Asia Pacific region– Core activity is to allocate & assign Internet
number resources (IPv4, IPv6 & ASNs)– Manages reverse DNS delegations
• Organisational structure– Membership based, non-profit – Self-regulatory body governed by members
and broader Internet community• Bottom up policy and decision making processes

IP resource utilisation
• Various Pacific country reports mention plans to deploy:– ADSL, Broadband, Wireless and NGN– Have you sufficient IP addresses for these
services?
• Verify utilisation– APNIC Whois database records up to date?– 80% utilisation rule for subsequent allocation– Use MyAPNIC
![Page 31: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Essential RIR terminology
![Page 32: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Allocation and assignment
Allocation“A block of address space held by an IR (or downstream
ISP) for subsequent allocation or assignment”• Not yet used to address any networks
Assignment“A block of address space used to address an
operational network”• May be provided to LIR customers, or used for an LIR’s
infrastructure (‘self-assignment’)
![Page 33: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Portable & non-portable
Portable Assignments– Customer addresses independent from ISP
• Keeps addresses when changing ISP
– Bad for size of routing tables– Bad for QoS: routes may be filtered, flap-dampened
Non-portable Assignments– Customer uses ISP’s address space
• Must renumber if changing ISP
– Only way to effectively scale the Internet
Portable allocations– Allocations made by APNIC/NIRs”
![Page 34: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Address management objectives
Conservation• Efficient use of resources
• Based on demonstrated need
Aggregation• Limit routing table growth
• Support provider-based routing
Registration• Ensure uniqueness
• Facilitate trouble shooting
Uniqueness, fairness and consistency

When can I come back for more addresses?• Under IPv4, address space utilisation measured as simple
percentage:
• IPv4 utilisation requirement is 80%– When 80% of address space has been assigned or
allocated, LIR may receive more• E.g. ISP has assigned 55000 addresses of /16
utilisation = Assigned address space
Available address space
Assigned address space
Available address space=
55,000
65,536= 84%

IPv6 Policy framework
![Page 47: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
IPv6 addressing
• 128 bits of address space• Hexadecimal values of eight 16 bit fields
• X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X (X=16 bit number, ex: A2FE)• 16 bit number is converted to a 4 digit hexadecimal number
• Example:• FE38:DCE3:124C:C1A2:BA03:6735:EF1C:683D
– Abbreviated form of address• 4EED:0023:0000:0000:0000:036E:1250:2B00→4EED:23:0:0:0:36E:1250:2B00→4EED:23::36E:1250:2B00(Null value can be used only once)

48
IPv6 address policy goals
• Efficient address usage– Avoid wasteful practices
• Aggregation– Hierarchical distribution
– Aggregation of routing information
– Limiting number of routing entries advertised
• Registration, Uniqueness, Fairness & consistency
• Minimise overhead– Associated with obtaining address space
• Like IPv4, policy framework is changing

IPv6 initial allocation
• Initial allocation criteria– Plan to connect 200 end sites within 2 years
• Default allocation (“slow start”)
• Initial allocation size is /32– Provides 16 bits of site address space
– Larger initial allocations can be made if justified according to:• IPv6 network infrastructure plan
• Existing IPv4 infrastructure and customer base

51
IPv6 utilisation
• Utilisation determined from end site assignments– LIR responsible for registration of all /48 assignments– Intermediate allocation hierarchy not considered
• Utilisation of IPv6 address space is measured differently from IPv4
![Page 52: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
IPv6 utilisation requirement
• IPv6 utilisation measured according to HD-Ratio (RFC 3194):
• IPv6 utilisation requirement is HD=0.80– Measured according to assignments only
• E.g. ISP has assigned 10000 (/48s) addresses of /32
Utilisation HD = log (Assigned address space)
log (Available address space)
log (Assigned address space)
log (Available address space)=
log (10,000)
log (65,536)=0.83

54
Subsequent allocation
• Must meet HD = 0.8 utilisation requirement of previous allocation
• (7132 /48s assignments in a /32)
• Other criteria to be met– Correct registrations (all /48s registered)– Correct assignment practices etc
• Subsequent allocation results in a doubling of the address space allocated to it
– Resulting in total IPv6 prefix is 1 bit shorter– Or sufficient for 2 years requirement

What is ‘Reverse DNS’?
• ‘Forward DNS’ maps names to numbers– svc00.apnic.net -> 202.12.28.131
• ‘Reverse DNS’ maps numbers to names– 202.12.28.131 -> svc00.apnic.net

Reverse DNS - why bother?
• Service denial• That only allow access when fully reverse delegated eg. anonymous ftp
• Diagnostics• Assisting in trace routes etc
• Spam identification
• Registration• Responsibility as a member and Local IR

61
Reverse delegation requirements
• /24 Delegations• Address blocks should be assigned/allocated• At least two name servers• Can ask APNIC to be the secondary zone
• /16 Delegations• Same as /24 delegations• APNIC delegates entire zone to member• Recommend APNIC secondary zone
• < /24 Delegations• Read “classless in-addr.arpa delegation”
RFC2317

Delegation procedures
• Upon allocation, member is asked if they want /24 place holder domain objects with member maintainer
– Gives member direct control
• Standard APNIC database object, – can be updated through online form or via email.
• Nameserver/domain set up verified before being submitted to the database.
• Protection by maintainer object– (auths: CRYPT-PW, PGP).
• Zone file updated 2-hourly

Delegation procedures – request form• Complete the documentation
• http://www.apnic.net/db/domain.html
• On-line form interface– Real time feedback– Gives errors, warnings in zone configuration
• serial number of zone consistent across nameservers
• nameservers listed in zone consistent

Evaluation
• Parser checks for– ‘whois’ database
• IP address range is assigned or allocated• Must be in APNIC database
– Maintainer object• Mandatory field of domain object
– Nic-handles• zone-c, tech-c, admin-c
![Page 66: APNIC Update](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070402/56813948550346895da0e447/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)

Creation of domain objects
• APNIC highly recommend you to use MyAPNIC when creating domain objects– MyAPNIC parser will check the maintainer of
‘inetnum’ object– If the password matches no errors will be
returned
• Can use MyAPNIC to create multiple domain objects at once – ex: If you are allocated a /19, you can provide
the full IP range and 32 domain objects can be created in one go
