Date: 11 June 2026
Proposal Originators: Alison Wood, Chris Woodfield, Gus Reese, Elizabeth Goodson
NRPM Section 6.4.1 Retirement
Problem Statement
Current NRPM Section 6.4.1 contains language referring to property rights of IPv6 direct allocations made by ARIN. Past references to any rights on IP resources was defined in legacy versions of the Resource Services Agreement between an entity and ARIN. Any mention of property or other rights do not belong in the Number Resource Policy Manual, this should be referenced in the Registration Services Agreement. Section 6 of the Number Resource Policy Manual was modeled on a framework the other RIRs added to their policy manuals going back as far as 2004.
Policy Statement
Retire 6.4.1 Address Space Not to be Considered Property
