arin representation

Mon Mar 24 04:53:10 UTC 2014

Unless I misremember, everyone who receives a direct allocation from ARIN
and signs an RSA is automatically a member. It's not clear to me what
"owner of a /24 network" means in that context. (I don't recall if signing
an LRSA in and of itself also makes one a member, since by the time we had
signed an LRSA, we had long since received our direct IPv6 allocation under
an RSA.)

But perhaps Randy is looking for the number of /24 equivalents allocated to
legacy resource holders who haven't also received an IPv6 direct allocation
or other IPv4 direct allocation under an RSA?
