1. Problem statement --------------------
Recently, there are some cases need to get IP address assignment information in more detail to specify user IP address.
With out this information, operators cannot filter out specific address range, and it might lead to 'over-filter' (i.e. filtering whole ISP's address range).
For example:
1) 'Port' range information in IPv4
ISPs are using 'CGN' or other kinds of IPv4 address sharing technology with assignment of IP address and specified port range to their users.
In this case, port information is necessary to specify one user.
ex) 192.0.2.24/32 1-256 is for HomeA 192.0.2.24/32 257-511 is for HomeB
or 192.0.2.0/24 1-65536 is shared address of ISP-X minimum size is /32
2) address assignment size information in IPv6
The IPv6 address assignment size may be different from ISP to ISP, and address ranges in one ISP. Address assignment prefix size will be necessary.
ex) 2001:db8:1::0/56 is for HomeA 2001:db8:1:1::0/48 is for HomeB
or 2001:db8:1::/36's minimum size is /56
2. Objective of policy change -----------------------------
Lots of operators look a record when harmful behavior coming to their network to identify its IP address confirming it can be filtered or not.
The goal is providing more specific information to support these actions.
3. Situation in other regions -----------------------------
No same regulation/discussion can be seen in other regions.
4. Proposed policy solution ---------------------------
Provide accurate filtering information generated from whois DB.
For IPv4, propose to add 'port range' information to IP address entry.
For IPv6, propose to provide 'assignment prefix size' information for specific IPv6 address.
5. Advantages / Disadvantages -----------------------------
Advantages:
- operators can set filtering by IP address based on correct assignment information base.
- users who share same address space can be avoid to be including bulk filtering.
Disadvantages:
- registration rule will move to more strict manner.
- strict watch and control in registration of database records.
- additional record or option will be considered.
- privilege for withdrawing detailed information will be set for these records.
6. Impact on APNIC ------------------
This might be beyond the scope of using whois DB.
7. Other Consideration ----------------------
For the security reason, this detailed records may be able to see only by operators.(some kind of user control/privilege setting is needed)
For hosting services, /32 in IPv4 and /128 in IPv6 registration should be discussed based on its operability and possibility. But a harmful activities to filter by IP addresses are coming from hosting services as well. Here it seemed to be some demands.

Dear Colleagues,
And, here is prop-115. No comment has not been made for this proposal.
If reached consensus, it may needs significant change for whois database. I just reviewed implementation impact assessment by the Secretariat, and it says it might take more than 6 months. I think same thing will happen for whois database of each NIRs. And if your company have a system linked with APNIC/NIR whois database, it will be impacted also.
As Chair, I'm always very neutral for each proposal, including prop-115. However, I would like to emphasis prop-115 should be discussed more widely as it has wide impact. It is very appreciated if you will express your views.

I don’t believe the proposal offers enough benefit to be worth what implementation would likely cost.
First, I am sincerely hoping that CGN is an extremely temporary situation. I’m not sure it should be worth the effort to recode the registry to support it.
Second, I’m wondering if there’s any real advantage to having this level of detail on residential subscribers that don’t even get full addresses, since we don’t really tend to have it for single-address subscribers now.
IMHO, best to just let each ISP keep this information for themselves as the relevant contact for abuse and such is usually the ISP and not the residential user anyway.

Yeah I think this is a bit of a radical proposal to accept at present. I'm not convinced we should be supporting CGN in this way, nor am I a fan of seeing more and more information make it into Whois which might not be the best place.
I would like to hear more from Hiromi-san about the problem statement and how this might be solved, but I'm not at all sure I would support the current proposal.
Would it be possible to withdraw the proposal and use the scheduled time during the Policy Sig for an informational session to allow Hiromi-san to present to the community the problem here?

Dean,
I totally agree that we should focus on the problem statement itself in Fukuoka since this problem statement has something new concept for Policy SIG and Fukuoka will be first meeting.
However, I don't think this proposal needs to be withdrawn to focus on the problem statement in Fukuoka.
Certainly, in past meeting, we made it clear that we can discuss "problem statement only presentation" first, but that is optional.

prop-115-v001: Registration of detailed assignment information in whois DB

- Problem statement
Recently, there are some cases need to get IP address assignment information in more detail to specify user IP address. With out this information, operators cannot filter out specific address range, and it might lead to 'over-filter' (i.e. filtering whole ISP's address range). For example: 1) 'Port' range information in IPv4 ISPs are using 'CGN' or other kinds of IPv4 address sharing technology with assignment of IP address and specified port range to their users. In this case, port information is necessary to specify one
user.
ex) 192.0.2.24/32 1-256 is for HomeA 192.0.2.24/32 257-511 is for HomeB or 192.0.2.0/24 1-65536 is shared address of ISP-X minimum size is /32 2) address assignment size information in IPv6 The IPv6 address assignment size may be different from ISP to ISP, and address ranges in one ISP. Address assignment prefix size will be necessary. ex) 2001:db8:1::0/56 is for HomeA 2001:db8:1:1::0/48 is for HomeB or 2001:db8:1::/36's minimum size is /56
- Objective of policy change
Lots of operators look a record when harmful behavior coming to their network to identify its IP address confirming it can be filtered or not. The goal is providing more specific information to support these actions.
- Situation in other regions
No same regulation/discussion can be seen in other regions.
- Proposed policy solution
Provide accurate filtering information generated from whois DB. For IPv4, propose to add 'port range' information to IP address entry. For IPv6, propose to provide 'assignment prefix size' information for specific IPv6 address.
- Advantages / Disadvantages
Advantages:
- operators can set filtering by IP address based on correct
assignment
information base.
- users who share same address space can be avoid to be including bulk filtering.
Disadvantages:
registration rule will move to more strict manner.
strict watch and control in registration of database records.
additional record or option will be considered.
privilege for withdrawing detailed information will be set for these records.
- Impact on APNIC
This might be beyond the scope of using whois DB.
- Other Consideration
For the security reason, this detailed records may be able to see only by operators.(some kind of user control/privilege setting is needed) For hosting services, /32 in IPv4 and /128 in IPv6 registration should be discussed based on its operability and possibility. But a harmful activities to filter by IP addresses are coming from
hosting
services as well. Here it seemed to be some demands.

First, I am sincerely hoping that CGN is an extremely temporary situation. I’m not sure it should be worth the effort to recode the registry to support it.
Second, I’m wondering if there’s any real advantage to having this level of detail on residential subscribers that don’t even get full addresses, since we don’t really tend to have it for single-address subscribers now.
IMHO, best to just let each ISP keep this information for themselves as the relevant contact for abuse and such is usually the ISP and not the residential user anyway.

Dear Colleagues,
And, here is prop-115. No comment has not been made for this proposal.
If reached consensus, it may needs significant change for whois database. I just reviewed implementation impact assessment by the Secretariat, and it says it might take more than 6 months. I think same thing will happen for whois database of each NIRs. And if your company have a system linked with APNIC/NIR whois database, it will be impacted also.
As Chair, I'm always very neutral for each proposal, including prop-115. However, I would like to emphasis prop-115 should be discussed more widely as it has wide impact. It is very appreciated if you will express your views.

I do not support this proposal, on the basis that it seems its intent is to extend the scope of the APNIC whois database well beyond its traditional scope.
I believe the purpose of the APNIC database is to assert the authorisation of an assignee to use specified IP addresses, for purposes such as route validations or route dispute resolutions. The database only relates to the network layer identifiers that APNIC is chartered to administrate (i.e. IP addresses and AS numbers).
APNIC does not administrate or register the use of transport-layer identifiers (TCP or UDP ports); APNIC does not have the charter to state that certain TCP/UDP ports have been duly assigned and provide any authority for their use. Also, standard Internet routing does not function on the basis of TCP/UDP ports.
I therefore feel that any recording of any TCP/UDP port assignments would be outside of the scope of APNIC's business.

David Woodgate

I am currently neither in favour or opposed to this proposal, but I would like to ask for a point of clarification...
Is the author suggesting that new fields in the whois be added to allow this funtionality?
It would seem that this is something which operators could choose to implement today using the 'remarks' field as they do for BGP community information as shown below.

Proposed policy solution | > --------------------------- | > | > Provide accurate filtering information generated from whois DB. | > | > For IPv4, propose to add 'port range' information to IP address | > entry. | > | > For IPv6, propose to provide 'assignment prefix size' information | > for specific IPv6 address. | > | > | > 5. Advantages / Disadvantages | > ----------------------------- | > | > Advantages: | > | > - operators can set filtering by IP address based on correct assignment | > information base. | > | > - users who share same address space can be avoid to be including bulk | > filtering. | > | > Disadvantages: | > | > - registration rule will move to more strict manner. | > | > - strict watch and control in registration of database records. | > | > - additional record or option will be considered. | > | > - privilege for withdrawing detailed information will be set for these | > records. | > | > | > 6. Impact on APNIC | > ------------------ | > | > This might be beyond the scope of using whois DB. | > | > | > 7.
