1. allow /24s to be used by different ASes for short periods of time to handle peak demands? I can only think of mobile IP providers in different timezones being a "sensible" example of this.
2. to allow ASes to claim a need for addresses based on short term customer uses? This is an edge case; I've run a couple of events where I needed a /26 for a weekend, which was taken from the provider's existing pool.
3. to mark addresses as leased (i.e. cloud servers) to avoid blacklist hell for the next poor unfortunate soul to use them? (glhf?)
Righto.
I've chosen to reply to this post because after this it really gets
into "Why can't we have IPv6 already!".
While thats a useful topic, It's not the one I'm looking for an answer on.
Anyway. ��Correct me if I'm wrong but the summary of the discussion so
far seems to be:
Leasing is ok.
Anything to get me the IPv4 hit I need.
There are some issues around legislation but that may only be a
problem for the lessor not the RIR.
We've been leasing for ages already, this is just more of the same.
Needs based has never been about actually deploying things (I think
thats worth clarifying with APNIC, which I'll do). ��Sometimes it has
been about giving them to customers for a price, and that looks kinda
like leasing.
Have I misrepresented anything here? ��Anyone have any counterpoints?
