   [ppml] Policy Proposal 2005-1: Provider-independent IPv6

   No, you are completely missing the point. Establishing a policy that … defines "provider independent space" sets a precedent that, for all … practical purposes, will not be revokable. Once early adopters are … granted "PI space", the genie will be surely and truly out of the bottle; … those recipients of a valuable commodity will not be easily persuaded to … give it up nor will their service providers cut-off paying customers by … ceasing to route "de-authorized" prefixes. Those assignhments will be … permanent, just as all SRI-NIC-era assignments ("the swamp space") are … still filling the IPv4 routing table more than 10 years after they were … last granted. Future applicants will rightly cry "foul" when told that … they aren't going to be given the same "PI space" that early adopters … were given. … Nonsense. Once something is given it is almost impossible to get it back. … And creating a two-tiered society of "early adopters with PI space" vs. … "late adopters who get something less valuable" is going to run into all … sorts of issues. … And the hundreds of thousands of routes that are of concern to those who … think about "big Internet" scaling problems are what we *will* see if a … "PI space" policy is adopted. Not by years end but most certainly if ipv6 … is widely adopted in the absence of a scalable multihoming solution (and … no, the existing ipv6 strict topology-based addressing plan doesn't cut … it, either; the protocol MUST be fixed to replace the "address" with a … topology-based locator and a endpoint id that does not need to ever be … renumbered once assigned before ipv6 can be ubiqitously deployed). … Ooh, the "restraint of trade boogieman". … I would be rather more concerned over lawsuits regarding unfair and … inconsistant business practices should an RIR establish the precedent of … granting a valuable asset ("PI space") to early adopters and then refusing … to offer equal treatment to later adopters. Or of tring to revoke the use … of an existing "PI space" allocation that is in use for critical business … purposes. … Some organizations were good enough to transition off of pre-RIR IPv4 … assignments (anybody remember net 36.0.0.0) because of a sense of community … and of doing good for the collective; that sense of community has long since … vanished from the commercial Internet, so past behavior is most certainly … not a good indicator of future behavior. … Fix the routing and addressing architecture *NOW*; don't try to kludge … around it and hope that it is possible to retrofit a fix later.
