In general, announce what you are allocated from the RIR. The minimum =
allocation from you will see is a /24.
A couple examples:
http://www.arin.net/reference/ip_blocks.html#ipv4
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-ncc-managed-address-space.html
If you are allocated a /22, announce the /22. Do not announce anything =
longer unless you have a requirement to (such as a different origin AS). =
If you are further allocating a subset of that to a downstream, then a =
/24 out of that is acceptable as the origin will be different.

Suresh,
Yes, I guess my concern is close to the second meaning.
It seems so simple. Currently annoucement of /24 seems to be okey, most =
upstream providers accept this.
However I wonder if there is any ground rule based on any standard or =
official recommandation.
If there is some standardized rule about prefix length to be annouced, I =
will make my bgp & IP allocation policy of=20
each data center of my company, and I will be able to more fairly and =
squarely speak to my customer like this=20
"You have to change your server's IP address if you want move your =
server to other place" =20

Title : Re: What is the most standard subnet length on internet
Chi Young, let me clarify one thing here ..
Do you mean IP allocation as in subnet allocation, swipping in apnic
or through a rwhois server etc?
Or do you mean "what is the minimum subnet size I can announce on the
internet and have other providers not drop it on the floor"?
