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.
