prop-064: Change to assignment policy for AS numbers
________________________________________________________________________
Dear SIG members
Below is a summary of discussions on the proposal to date. We encourage
you to continue discussions on the mailing list before APNIC 26.
Regards,
Randy and Jian
Proposal summary
----------------
This proposal seeks to create an awareness for the need to support
4-byte AS numbers by introducing another key date in the timeline for
APNIC,Ab€™s move to assigning 4-byte AS numbers by default.
The proposal suggests that from 1 July 2009, APNIC assigns 4-byte AS
numbers by default unless the LIR can document that they cannot
successfully announce a 4-byte AS number.
This proposal has not been submitted to any other RIR.
