In assigning IPv4 and IPv6 address space to Internet subscribers, ISPs take guidance from assignment policies and procedures set forth by ARIN (American Registry for Internet Numbers) Number Resource Policy Manual, RFC 2050, and RFC 3177. IP address space is assigned based on utilization efficiency guidelines as defined by ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual, RFC 2050, and RFC 3177.
CWEP requires customers complete the IP justification form for the use of address space equal to or greater than a /29. CWEP’s policies are based on RFC2050 (http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2050.txt). CWEP abides by ARIN’s policies to promote efficient use of IP address space.
Requester must show EXACTLY how address assignments will be utilized and must provide appropriate details. Should CWEP determine the assigned address space is not being utilized efficiently, CWEP reserves the right to revoke the assignment and reassign an appropriate number of IP addresses.
