Hi,
IANA has been asked to provide input to ICANN's board on the RIR-
consensus global IPv6 allocation policy (see http://www.icann.org/
announcements/announcement-14jul06.htm for details), so I'm looking
to understand what folks in the operational community think.
One question would be the choice of /12 as the minimum allocation
size for IANA to allocate IPv6 addresses to the RIRs. Do folks
consider this:
a) just right
b) too little
c) too much
d) why are you annoying me with this?
Another question: does your answer change with changes to either a
more conservative HD ratio or a longer minimum end user prefix length?
Thanks!
Rgds,
