Hi all,
I would like to share with you all about the case that is currently happen in ID .
There is an ISP here, that are currently announcing their IP Address to some different upstream provider. Please see some of our queries on the looking glasses below.
We found this case, after they announced to us that they want us to stop announcing the following prefixes (especially on our Internet eXchange): 202.173.91.0/24, 202.173.92.0/24, 202.173.94.0/24, 202.173.95.0/24
And after we checked to the upstream providers, why they are doing this, they mentioned that they received a permission letter, signed by this ISP's from their customer that are "holding" this IP Address. Just to note you that this customers are not connecting directly to this ISP's.
I would like to have your opinion on this: do we have to put it back to the FREE POOL, the whole IP Address ?? or only their AS Number that are currently being allocated to this members because of this ??
Our reason are: 1. This case are contriary with the goals of the assignment and allocation policies, especially on Aggregation and routability.
2. Announcing their IP Address not in the same ASN (I'm not sure where I can find this policy??). After we consult with some routing expert here in Indonesia, they mentioned, that if some IP Blocks are being announced under a different ASN, that means that this ISP's have broke their own routing table's.
I would like to have your share on this unique case. ========================================

Hi Ahmad,
Apologies for the delay in responding to your question.
Any customer assignments or sub-allocations that your members make to their customers are NON-PORTABLE. This means that when a customer ceases to receive connectivity from your member, then the customer has no choice but to return the address space.
In this particular case that you are referring to, when APNIC made the allocation the following piece of standard information was included:
[snip] APNIC strongly recommends you include in your standard connectivity contract provisions that require customers to return address space back to you when they change service providers. Such wording will help to reduce the growth in the number of global routing tables, thus aiding the continuation of global connectivity for all networks. [/snip]
How this case is proceeded with depends on the contractual agreement APJII has with it's members. Your member may wish to ask the other upstream who is currently announcing the /24s to stop announcing them.
In any case, should your member come back for another allocation it should not be approved if non-portable address space is being used in the wrong manner. You may need to remove route or other objects from the whois database if you are having problems stopping the routing of these assignments.
If your member does not understand the policy fully, it would be good if APJII can educate them on this. You should also suggest to your members that when they are making assignments to their customers they should have some agreement so that when the customers are disconnected from the network they should return the resource.
I hope this information is of assistance.
Cheers, Tim.
