There's not a predefined "maximum" allocation, there are maximums
that apply in certain circumstances; the maximum is a 3 month supply
of IP addresses that you have documented justification for, subject
to the slow-start rule (I'm assuming you can't show justified need
for a /8 or other allocation size which the free pool exhaustion
would make impossible); if you don't already have a /22, you can't
apply for a /16, for example, under the normal allocation policy.
There is a minimum allocation size, and you need to meet the
requirements shown in the policy.
