#IPTransfer: Join Our Twitter Chat on the Implementation of the Inter-RIR Transfer Policy
As the available regional pools of IPv4 addresses continue to deplete, interest in inter-RIR IP address transfers is on the rise. On 31 July, ARIN implemented Policy ARIN-2011-1: ARIN inter-RIR Transfers.
This policy creates the opportunity for organizations to move address space between regions and removes boundaries from the growing IPv4 Transfer market.
ARIN-2011-1 was discussed extensively on the Public Policy Mailing List and at three consecutive ARIN Public Policy and Members Meetings and includes some of the following features:
-
IPv4 number resources may be released to ARIN by the authorized resource holder for transfer to another specified recipient.
-
Organizations in the ARIN region may receive transferred number resources if they can demonstrate need for the resources according to current ARIN policies.
-
IPv4 address resources may be transferred to organizations in another RIR’s service region if they demonstrate need according to their own RIR’s policies.
Given the complexity of this policy and the high interest in this topic, there will be an opportunity to ask any questions about its implementation at ARIN.
Mark your calendars for Wednesday, 8 August at 2:30pm ET for our #IPTransfer Twitter Chat when we’ll aim to answer all of your questions about inter-RIR address transfers. @TeamARIN will moderate the chat and ARIN President and CEO, John Curran (@JCurranARIN), will provide responses.
