I have trouble understanding why an ARIN record for a network regularly receiving new, out-sized IPv4 allocations on the order of millions of OrgName: Cellco Partnership DBA Verizon Wireless CIDR: 97.128.0.0/9 Comment: Verizon Wireless currently has 44.3 Million Comment: subscribers with 2.097 Million IP addresses allocated. RegDate: 2008-04-14
If they have immediately allocated 2.097 million out of 8.388 million, then they have satisfied the 25% immediate utilization requirement. In fact, 2.097 million is exactly how many they would need immediate use for in order to justify an allocation of 8 million IPs according to ARIN policy. I expect the 2.097 million figure applies only to this particular range, this comment in whois does not indicate that Verizon has _only_ assigned that many across all its various ranges; I would fully expect they have massively more IPs in use. I would expect ARIN would have followed policy, and so Verizon had to show to ARIN their well-founded projection that within one year, at least 50% of the new assignment would be allocated. And also that they met the additional requirements for ISPs; 80% utilization over all previous allocations, and also 80% of their most recent allocation. -- -Jimmy
