IPv6 Address Allocation Management
Alternative Format: Original Text Document
RFC 1881 IPv6 Address Allocation Management December 1995
Any revenues (such as transaction fees) received with respect to the
IPv6 address space should be used only for expenses related to
registry activities, and not to subsidize any other activities.
There will be no charges for the address space itself, only fees to
recover the registry costs.
Any situation in the management of the IPv6 address space that leads
to monopoly control or predatory practices must be avoided.
The IANA will develop a plan for the initial IPv6 address allocation,
including a provision for the automatic allocation of IPv6 addresses
to holders of IPv4 addresses. IANA will also develop mediation and
appeals procedures concerning delegation and revocation.
