60% - invalid or missing contact information
This is interesting. How about a policy that says if nobody can contact you and none of your addresses are reachable, then after some period, your addresses get recycled.
By addresses not being reachable, are you effectively saying that any enterprise that does not want to connect to the Internet must use RFC1597 address space?
Anyone have an idea how much of the address space is used for registered addresses of organizations that do not connect to the Internet?
I would also be curious how the 60% missing is counted. If an organization places 99% of their addresses behind a firewall do all those not count? Unfortunately, I don't think we can base much policy on whether or what % of addresses are reachable from the internet. --- David Miller ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's *amazing* what one can accomplish when one doesn't know what one can't do!
