thanks for the info. my last allocation was on the 19th of April 2011 four days after the /8 policy came into effect so that rules out anymore allocations.

Hi All,

I'm trying to understand the APNIC policy on IPv4 Delegation. It states

if

...

you have received the maximum /22 you are not eligible to apply for more IPv4 address space.

http://www.apnic.net/policy/add-manage-policy#delegations

Are there any specific criterias or situation that overides this?

I don't believe that there are exceptions.

If you have existing IPv4 address space which was allocated before the final /8 policy came into force - 15 April 2011 - you can still apply for one final /22 but that will be it.

You should also apply for an IPv6 allocation and begin the process of adding IPv6 to your network. You'd be wise to use that final IPv4 /22 very wisely to allow you to build your dual stack network. Simply allocating that IPv4 block in a 'business as usual' manner would not be a good idea.
