For those who prefer to protect their networks against remote outages by route filtering, this may be of interest. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 4 May 2000 11:14:28 +1000 (EST) From: APNIC Secretariat To: apnic-announce(a)lists.apnic.net, nanog(a)merit.edu, ripe-list(a)ripe.net, eof-list(a)ripe.net, apops(a)lists.apnic.net Subject: [apops] Filtering: APNIC Policy changes ** Apologies for duplicate messages ** Important Public Announcement CHANGES IN APNIC ADDRESS POLICY If you ingress filter on any of the following APNIC address ranges - 61/8, 202/7, or 210/7 - then please note the following important changes to APNIC address policy which were approved at the recent APNIC Member Meeting in March, in Seoul, Korea. * APNIC will lower its initial minimum allocation from a /19 to a /20 (this will apply across all address ranges held by APNIC). * APNIC will begin making allocations from network 61/8 as routine allocations from its total address pool. These policy changes will take effect three months from this announcement, on 4 August 2000. This email is intended to allow the ISP community sufficient advance notice to make any necessary filtering changes. For more detailed information on these proposals and decisions, or other discussion items, copies of presentations and discussion papers are available on the APNIC web site at http://www.apnic.net/amm2000/ .
