  1. APNIC Fee StructureMembership Fee StructureIPv6 Fees for Confederations APNIC Annual Member Meeting Seoul, 3 March 2000

  2. Membership Fee Structure • Background • Proposal • IPv4, IPv6 and Combined • Outcome • APNIC and Members • Implementation • Questions

  3. Background • Proposal presented to AMM 1999 (SG) • Decision deferred to future meeting • Updated proposal published • Wednesday 1 Dec 1999 • Membership advised of fee changes • Friday 4 Feb 2000 • Updated proposal published 15 Feb 2000

  4. Background • Current Structure - “Self-determined” • Members choose category • Small, Medium, Large, Very Large • Determines annual fee and number of votes • Problems • “Drift” from larger categories to smaller • No relationship between “size” and “cost” • Unfair distribution of funding burden • Serious concerns about future implications

  5. Background • Current Structure - “Self-determined” • Members choose category • Note: Theoretical figures • Based on current membership only

  6. New Fee Structure • Proposed Structure - “Deterministic” • Minimum category determined by total IP allocations • Design structure so that... • Minimum conceptual change from current system • Category system maintained • APNIC income is maintained • Minimum number of members affected • System is simple

  7. New Fee Structure • Proposed Structure - “Deterministic” • Considering IPv4 and IPv6 separately • Question: How to deal with members holding IPv6 and IPv4 allocations?

  8. New Fee Structure • Combined allocations - IPv4 and IPv6 • Assess as one membership • Choose larger of IPv4 and IPv6 category • Option: where equal, choose larger+1 • Assess as two separate memberships • Recognises likely changes in IPv6 policies/fees • Recommend • Assess as two separate memberships • Other suggestions?

  9. Impact - APNIC income • Outcome - IPv4 only • Based on allocations at 1 Feb 2000

  10. Impact - Members • Summary of fee change impact • 103 members have fee change (25% of total)

  11. Impact - Members • Fee increase • Members with fee increase: 44 • Total Fee increase: USD 175,000 • Fee decrease • Members with fee decrease: 59 • Total Fee decrease: USD 200,000 • Net revenue gain: USD 25,000 • 1.7% increase in total APNIC revenues

  12. Impact - IPv6 • Outcome - IPv6 • Based on allocations at 1 Feb 2000 • 8 allocations so far - all /35 • All assessed as Small members • 5 allocations to new APNIC members • 1 of these elected Medium category • 3 allocations to existing APNIC members • Impact depends on treatment of combined allocations

  13. Implementation • New members • Structure should be effective immediately • Current members • Propose to change from 1 July 2000 • All membership renewals after this date would be assessed according to total allocations • Question: Pro-rata charge for increase in category during term of membership?

  14. Summary • Benefits • Prevent “drift” to smaller categories • Members pay fees more fairly: • According to resources consumed • According to burden placed on APNIC secretariat • Fair sharing of APNIC funding • Increased security for future operations • Recommend implementation

  15. Memberships Fee Structure • Questions?

  17. IPv6 Fee for Confederations • Background • Proposal • Implementation • Questions

  18. Background • IPv6 allocations to confederations • NIR • No ‘pool’ of addresses held by NIR • Changing policy environment • Very little global experience • Members of NIR • NIR acts as “Agent” in forwarding request • Liaise with APNIC on behalf of their member • Problem • Determination of an appropriate fee?

  19. Proposal • IPv6 address architecture • Every ‘site’ receives a /48 • Note each SLA is 65,536 /64 addresses • Each /64 address can address a whole LAN and maybe dial up users • Proposal - ‘per site’ fee under IPv6 • Same as ‘per address’ fee under IPv4 • e.g. USD 0.03 / site for Very Large members • Will apply where confederation is able to undertake allocation process

  20. Implementation Type Prefix SLAs Price (0.03) IPv4 equiv Minimum /35 8192 USD 245.76 /19 /32 65536 USD 1966.08 /16 SubTLA /29 524288 USD 15728.64 /13 • Different approach required for larger allocations • Thus explicitly cap fees at /29 level

  21. Summary • Proposed IPv6 Fees for Confederations • Mirrors existing “per-address” fee structure • Ensures fair contribution to APNIC operating costs • Far lower per-customer cost for ISP networks • Recommendation • Review pricing structure after experience • As variations in global policy occur
