I think the distinction is important - it is very useful to be able to label address space as portable or non portable (or PI PA for RIPE) especially as we still encounter many that think that all address space is portable. > > To clarify, the values that APNIC would prefer to use are: > > > > ALLOCATED PORTABLE > > ALLOCATED NON-PORTABLE > > ASSIGNED PORTABLE > > ASSIGNED NON-PORTABLE > > This does not take into account that there are no portable addresses, what is an allocation from an RIR to you as an LIR? > and that there is an additional level "LIR-allocated" which IPv4 does > not have. In IPv4 this is something we plan to discuss with the community in the future as feedback to APNIC indicates that there is a requirement for it. cheers, Anne -- > I like the original proposal of not having the status generated > automatically, and giving them a meaning clearly reflected in the > name. > > Robert > * sig-db: APNIC SIG on whois database issues * * To unsubscribe: send "unsubscribe" to sig-db-request@apnic.net *
