Proposal
- Minimum Allocation. The minimum allocation size for ISPs from the African portion of the ARIN region is /22.
- Allocation Criteria.
- The requesting organization must show the efficient utilization of an entire previously allocated /22 from their upstream ISP. This allocation (/22) may have been provided by an ISP's upstream provider(s), and does not have to be contiguous address space. The organization must meet the requirement of efficient use of 4 /24s.
- A multi-homed organization must show the efficient utilization of an entire previously allocated /23 from their upstream ISP. This allocation (/23) may have been provided by an ISP's upstream provider(s), and does not have to be contiguous address space. The organization must meet the requirement of efficient use of 2 /24s.
- Utilization Reporting and Justification. All other ARIN policies regarding the reporting of justification information for the allocation of IPv4 address space will remain in effect.
