It currently works the same way in ARIN's fee schedule. However, in this discussion, we're talking about people who have legacy IPv4 space, which is now administratively under ARIN's management, and for whom there are currently no fees of any kind, which means that max(IPv4 space fee, IPv6 space fee) == IPv6 space fee, and increase from nothing, ever. > Also, if you are current standing member, they don't even ask you to justify > IPv6, they give you a similar space to your current IPv4 space on simple > request. If you need more then you need to justify. For an organization that didn't have to justify anything for IPv4 in the modern sense in order to obtain their address space, it's arguably a valid question to ask whether they have any need for anything similar in IPv6. -- Kevin Stange Chief Technology Officer Steadfast Networks http://steadfast.net Phone: 312-602-2689 ext. 203 | Fax: 312-602-2688 | Cell: 312-320-5867
