Note - if the reason that you are paying "significant money” to ARIN is because you have more than one ASN
(and therefore are paying $150 per-ASN annual maintenance fee), I would suggest you review if you qualify for
a /24 IPv4 block from the ARIN waiting list (and applying asap if that’s the case), as your annual ARIN payment
would drop upon receipt (i.e. you would become a 3X-Small registration services plan customer paying $250/year
in total rather than paying the per-ASN maintenance fees), and also be able to opt into general membership and
thus participating in voting if desired.

Or get an IPv6 /48 which could be fulfilled immediately (no waiting
list) and have the same impact of making you a 3x-small services plan
customer paying $250/year total.

Thank you Bill – obviously another excellent option…

(He could even do both, since the RSP plan category is based on the largest of the two resource holding – so that
when an IPv4 /24 is eventually issued, his overall customer category would still remain at 3X-Small, i.e. $250/year)

Hi John,

He might not qualify for an IPv4 /24 under current ARIN policy but
with AS numbers in use it's a near certainty that he qualifies for an
IPv6 /48 with little effort.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
