Down a little more. /24 --> 357

Still waiting for them to process our /20 right now signed the officer letter I believe Monday. They must be pretty darn busy there right now for how long it's taking.
Well you aren't getting a /20 as stated in this thread the most you can get is a /24 now. You can either tell them you want to wait on them to get more space to fill your /20 or you can take a /24.

They haven't responded to my ticket that I updated on the 14th either.

335 now.

So they burned through almost 100 /24's in under a week (@rds100 stated 400 on the 14th).

@PureVoltage - If you didn't have that /20 allocated to you by mid last month, then all you're doing is getting a seat warmed for the waiting list, so I hope your spare pool can hold you till September.

I also don't think this "class E" space could be used. It would be easier and less painful to completely switch to ipv6 instead. I.e. it's not going to happen.

Our ticket was placed before they had only /24 and /23's left. They offered us a /21 last week however they gave us an option to take the /21 or provide them with more information for a /20.

"Hello,
Based on the data you provided, we can approve a /20."

This is part of the reply we got along with the officer letter to sign so I'm pretty sure we will see this block next week here.

Sigh... apparently they are requiring street addresses of all my customers now.
That has been required for a long time.  But I do not believe they request such from everyone (didn't in recent past).  Seems to be on accounts they scrutinize more for whatever reason or perhaps certain reviewers on their end who are tougher.

Not really anything new. Done it for us multiple times already. Pretty easy to automate via SQL
Yea they didn't do it for us on our initial allocation so I filled out the sheet the same way I did last time. When I got their reply about addresses I was just dissapointed, it seemed like they were just stalling for time.

Edit: By the way did anyone ever get a better date on when there were going to be more ip addresses released to the free pool?

Bad news everyone.

So IANA published the scripts they use to generate allocation requests - 

https://github.com/icann/ipv4-recovery-algorithm/blob/master/recover-ipv4-space

The bad news is that i've gone ahead and run it, and it looks like each region is getting a /14.

IP addresses available to allocate: 2,128,128 (21.0 bits)
Each allocatee receives: 262,144 (/14 equivalent)

Making allocations:
192.142.0.0/15 (131072 addresses) -> ARIN
45.66.0.0/15 (131072 addresses) -> RIPE NCC
45.2.0.0/15 (131072 addresses) -> AFRINIC
164.160.0.0/16 (65536 addresses) -> APNIC

In other words, while we were accurate in how much they had available, it's around half the size of what we predicted they were going to get due rounding. It means that come next year there'll be another /15 to chop up for each region, then a /16 next September, etc.

I don't understand why AFRINIC keeps getting more ips when they have plenty available.

Because this was the agreement between all of the RIRs once the IANA free pool was depleted.

And also, this:

Yes I've heard it a million times 'because it was the agreement'. Why aren't they making new agreements? Clearly other areas have more of a need than afrinic right now.

OK, what is AFRNIC getting out of this new deal then? Because they would be losing future resources without gaining anything.

Are you saying Africa doesn't deserve the IPs? This doesn't sound right.
