IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy
This document describes policies for the allocation and assignment of globally unique Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address space. [ RFC 4291] designates 2000::/3 to be global unicast address space that the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) may allocate to the RIRs. In accordance with [ RFC 4291 ], IANA allocated initial ranges of ...
IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy
This document describes policies for the allocation and assignment of globally-unique Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) address space. It updates and obsoletes the existing Provisional IPv6 Policies in effect since 1999 [RIRv6-Policies]. Policies described in this document are intended to be adopted by each registry.
APNIC guidelines for IPv6 allocation and assignment requests
RFC 6177 IPv6 Address Assignment to End Sites; Top. 4. Goals of address space management. In this document, all reference to the goals of address space management refer to the goals described in the IPv6 address allocation and assignment policy, namely: uniqueness; registration; aggregation; conservation; fairness; and; minimized overhead. Top. 5.
Draft: IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy
There is no guarantee that any address allocation or assignment will be globally routable. However, RIRs must apply procedures that reduce the possibility of fragmented address space which may lead to a loss of routability. 4.3. Minimum allocation. The minimum allocation size for IPv6 address space is /32. 4.4. Consideration of IPv4 infrastructure
4. IPv6 ADDRESS ALLOCATION AND ASSIGNMENT POLICIES
This chapter describes policies for the allocation and assignment of the globally-unique IPv6 address space. [RFC2373, RFC2373bis] designate 2000::/3 to be the global unicast address space that IANA may allocate to RIRs. This chapter concerns initial and subsequent allocations of the 2000::/3 unicast address space, for which RIRs formulate ...
IPv6 Global Unicast Address Assignments
The assignable Global Unicast Address space is defined in [ RFC3513] as the address block. defined by the prefix 2000::/3. [ RFC3513] was later obsoleted by [ RFC4291 ]. All address. space in this block not listed in the table below is reserved by IANA for future. allocation.

IPv6 Address Planning: Guidelines & Resources
The following is a summary of key guidelines when defining your IPv6 address plan. Baseline your IPv4 address space in terms of documenting your IP blocks, subnets, host assignments and DHCP pools. If you're using an IP address management (IPAM) system, this information should be readily available.
IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy
This document defines registry policies for the assignment and allocation of globally unique IPv6 addresses to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and other organisations. This document obsoletes the "Provisional IPv6 assignment and allocation policy document". It was developed through joint discussions among the APNIC, ARIN and RIPE communities.
The most significant difference between IPv6 and IPv4 is its large address space. IPv4 has 32 bits (4 bytes) and allows for approximately 4.29 (2 32) billion addresses. IPv6, on the other hand, defines 128 bits (16 bytes) and supports approximately 340 x 10 36 addresses. This is a pretty impressive number, and there will be no address depletion ...
IPv6 address space layout best practices
RIPE - "IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy" says (amongst many other things): "The minimum allocation size for IPv6 address space is /32. (for LIRs)", "To qualify for an initial allocation of IPv6 address space, an LIR must have a plan for making sub-allocations to other organisations and/or End Site assignments within two years ...
CIDR for IPv6: Address Aggregation, Allocation, and Assignment Strategy
Rules for Route Advertisements. This document requires that all parties follow the rules for route advertisements for IPv6 as previously published for IPv4 in [RFC4632] (Fuller, V. and T. Li, "Classless Inter-domain Routing (CIDR): The Internet Address Assignment and Aggregation Plan," August 2006.) . TOC.
RFC 9637: Expanding the IPv6 Documentation Space
The four largest assignments made to end users have been /19s, but these allocations were made before the RIRs moved away from the use of a fixed /48 site address prefix in IPv6 address assignment policies, and in the foreseeable future, it is unlikely that individual networks will require more than a /20.
Create an Addressing Plan
There are rules about how many IPv6 addresses you can request from the RIPE NCC or how many addresses your ISP is allowed to assign to you. These rules are written down in so-called RIPE Documents, and there is one that describes IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy. This document makes a distinction between "allocations", which ...
Internet Protocol Version 6 Address Space
The IPv6 address management function was formally delegated to IANA in December 1995 . The registration procedure was confirmed with the IETF Chair in March 2010. As stated in , IANA should limit its allocation of IPv6-unicast address space to the range of addresses that start with binary value 001. The rest of the global unicast address space ...
IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy
Responsible address space management involves balancing a set of sometimes competing goals. The following are the goals relevant to IPv6 address policy. 3.2. Uniqueness. Every assignment and/or allocation of address space must guarantee uniqueness worldwide.

Policies. We allocate and assign IPv6 address space in our service region according to policies developed by the RIPE community through the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP): IPv6 Address Allocation and Assignment Policy. IPv6 Address Space Policy for Internet Exchange Points. IPv6 Addresses for Internet Root Servers.
IPv6 Address Assignment Example
IANA "owns" the entire IPv6 address space and they assign certain prefixes to the RIRs (Regional Internet Registry). There are 5 RIRs at the moment: AFRINIC: Africa. APNIC: Asia/Pacific. ARIN: North America. LACNIC: Latin America and some Caribbean Islands. RIPE NCC: Europe, Middle east and Central Asia.
