Public Comments: END OF TEMPLATE -----------------------------CUT HERE ---------------------------------------- Instructions for Completing the ARIN Experimental Allocation Template Please complete the template and submit via e-mail to hostmaster@arin.net. The ARIN Registration Services Department will acknowledge receipt of your completed request via e-mail. BACKGROUND Experimental address allocations offer a systematic means of receiving Numbering Resources on a temporary basis as part of a recognized experiment in Internet technology deployment. For more information on requesting experimental allocations, refer to: https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#eleven Please note that experimental numbering resources from ARIN are subject to the fees outlined at: https://www.arin.net/fees/fee_schedule.html#experiment Each organization that is allocated Internet Protocol (IP) address space from ARIN must first establish an Organization Identification (Org ID) with ARIN. The Org ID is an alphanumeric identifier that references an ISP in the ARIN registration system. If you do not have an Org ID, or you wish to establish a new organization ID, complete and submit an Organization Template before submitting this template. Refer to the Organization Template instructions for more information. In order to ensure prompt and accurate processing of your experimental Network Request Template, please follow the instructions below. Any errors found may result in the template being returned for correction. If after reading these instructions, you still have questions, contact the ARIN Registration Services Department Help Desk: via e-mail: hostmaster@arin.net via phone: +1-703-227-0660 ======================================================================== TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS Please enter "Experimental Numbering Resource Request" in the subject line of the e-mail message. IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not remove or modify the template header, i.e. the line beginning with "Template:" or the footer, i.e. "END OF TEMPLATE". Both are required for processing. All lines that begin with ## are guidelines on how to supply the appropriate information, and are not necessary for processing. JUSTIFICATION SECTION The JUSTIFICATION SECTION asks for information pertaining to the details of your experiment. 00. An API Key is a string of characters you can use to identify yourself to ARIN. You must first set up an ARIN Online account and create your API Key. https://www.arin.net/public/register_1.xhtml Your ARIN Online account must be linked to a POC authorized to make the request. Find more information about API Keys at: https://www.arin.net/features/api_keys.html 1. List the URL where the details of your experiment are outlined. 2. Describe any technical coordination with other organizations that you have done and whether consideration of negative impact on the operation of the Internet have been discussed as a result of your experiment. 3. List the date that the experiment will start. 4. List the date that the experiment will end. IPv4 12-MONTH PROJECTION SUBSECTION 5. List your projections in the number of /24s needed. 6. Include any additional information pertaining to this request. IPv6 12-MONTH PROJECTION SUBSECTION 7. List your projections in the number of /32s needed. 8. Include any additional information pertaining to this request. AUTONOMOUS SYSTEM NUMBER 12-MONTH PROJECTION SUBSECTION 9. List the number of ASNs that will be needed for the next 12 months. 10. Include any additional information pertaining to this request. REGISTRATION SECTION 11. Enter a registered ARIN Org ID. If you are unsure of your Org ID please search for your organization name in ARIN's WHOIS. 12. Provide the legal name of your organization as it is registered with local, regional or national authorities. 13. The network name is used as an identifier. Supply a short name consisting of a combination of up to 50 letters and/or numbers for the network. You may use a dash (-) as part of the network name, but no other special characters, such as periods or underscores. 14. Networks should provide at least two, but not more than thirteen distinct name servers for providing address-to-name mapping for hostsin the network. To specify more than two, duplicate the field for each additional server. Do not list multiple servers on a single line. Provide fully-qualified host names for the servers that will be providing in-addr name services. CONTACT SECTION (Optional) You may add optional points of contact (POC) associated with this network. If no POCs are added, the contact associated with the organization will serve as the POCs for this network. Fields 16 and 17 can be duplicated to allow for multiple POCs. POCs must have a registered ARIN POC handle to be added as a contact on an experimental network request. If you are unsure of a POC's handle, perform a "last name, first name" search in the WHOIS database. If you do not have a POC handle, or you wish to register an additional contact, complete and submit the POC template prior to submitting this template. Refer to the POC template instructions for more information. The applicable POC types include: a. Technical (T) - Optional contact responsible for the technical aspects of maintaining the assigned network address space. This POC should be able to answer troubleshooting and operational questions about the network. The technical POC may make modifications to the assigned block. b. Abuse (AB) - Optional contact responsible for handling operational aspects of the acceptable or appropriate uses of the allocated network. The abuse POC may not make modifications to the allocated network registration. c. Network Operations Center (N) - Optional contact responsible for network operations and troubleshooting. The POC from the Network Operations Center, also known as the NOC, may not make modifications to the allocated network registration. Each POC in the ARIN database is assigned a handle in the format -ARIN, where is a unique tag consisting of initials of a person or role and a number. 15. Define the single function of the POC to be associated with the network, as defined above (T, AB or N). 16. Provide the registered ARIN POC handle you wish to use as a contact for this network. PUBLIC COMMENTS SECTION (Optional) 17. If there are any comments that you would like publicly displayed in ARIN's Whois, detail them here. All public comments must be operational in nature. All comments must be accurate. ARIN reserves the right to edit or remove public comments. Suggested comments are: Public Comments: http://www.example.net Public Comments: Standard NOC hours are 7am to 11pm EST
