Abstract
This document proposes a revised format for the IANA IPv6 address
registries. Rather than providing a formal definition of the format,
it is described by giving examples of the (current as of preparation
of this document) contents of the registries in the proposed format.
The proposed format would bring the IANA IPv6 address registries into
alignment with the current IPv6 Address Architecture specification,
as well as update it to a more useful and generally accepted format.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
This document proposes a revised format for the IANA IPv6 address
registries. The proposed format would bring the IANA IPv6 address
registries into alignment with the current IPv6 Address Architecture
specification, as well as update it to a more useful and generally
accepted format.
The current (as of preparation of this document) IANA IPv6 registries
[<a href="#ref-iana-ipv6-registry" title=""IANA IPv6 Address Registry"">iana-ipv6-registry</a>] [<a href="#ref-iana-ipv6-tla" title=""IANA Registry of IPv6 Top Level Aggregation Identifier Assignments"">iana-ipv6-tla</a>] are based on a now-deprecated
address architecture that used the concept of Top Level Aggregation
Identifiers (TLAs) and sub-TLAs. The current IPv6 Address
Architecture [<a href="./rfc3513" title=""Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) Addressing Architecture"">RFC3513</a>] uses the terminology of Global Identifiers
instead of TLAs and sub-TLAs.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>. IPv6 Address Registry</span>
The proposed format for the IPv6 address registry is indicated by
example, using the registry state that is current as of preparation
of this document, in Figure 1. The registry explicitly notes which
entity is placing a reservation on an address block and notes the
defining RFC document for each allocation.
The proposed format of the registry is a title line, the date of the
last change to the registry, the registry in a tabular format, notes
and references.
The table uses 4 columns. Within the table, the first column
contains an IPv6 address prefix, using a hexadecimal notation of the
address prefix and a prefix length. There are no overlapping address
blocks in the first column, and the set of address blocks in the
registry spans the entire IPv6 address space. The second column
denotes the current disposition of the address block, using notation
derived from the defining RFC document. The third column contains a
reference to the RFC that describes the current disposition of the
address block. The fourth column uses numeric footnote notation to
reference any additional text associated with the address block.
The notes in the registry may include a summary of previous
disposition status values associated with an address block, as this
summary is specifically not included in the registry table. The
notes are numbered sequentially.
The reference section uses a conventional citation format. The
references include documents referenced in the registry table and
documents referenced in the notes.

Notes:
[<a id="ref-0">0</a>] The IPv6 address management function was formally delegated to
IANA in December 1995 [<a href="./rfc1881">RFC1881</a>].
[<a id="ref-1">1</a>] The "unspecified address", the "loopback address", and the
IPv6 Addresses with Embedded IPv4 Addresses are assigned out
of the 0000::/8 address block.
[<a id="ref-2">2</a>] 0200::/7 was previously defined as an OSI NSAP-mapped prefix
set [<a href="./rfc1888">RFC1888</a>]. This definition has been deprecated as of
December 2004 [<a href="./rfc4048">RFC4048</a>].
[<a id="ref-3">3</a>] The IPv6 Unicast space encompasses the entire IPv6 address
range with the exception of FF00::/8. [<a href="./rfc3513" title=""Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) Addressing Architecture"">RFC3513</a>] IANA unicast
address assignments are currently limited to the IPv6 unicast
address range of 2000::/3. IANA assignments from this block
are registered in the IANA registry: iana-ipv6-unicast-
address-assignments.
[<a id="ref-4">4</a>] FEC0::/10 was previously defined as a Site-Local scoped
address prefix. This definition has been deprecated as of
September 2004 [<a href="./rfc3879">RFC3879</a>].

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-2.1" href="#section-2.1">2.1</a>. Notes on Proposed Format Changes to the Registry</span>
o The textual preamble at the start of the registry has been
removed, in deference to the use of standard IPv6 prefix notation
in the registry.
o Binary prefix notation has been replaced by standard IPv6 prefix
hexadecimal notation, and the fraction of address space column has
been replaced with the reference to the relevant RFC that defines
the disposition of the address block. Footnote references are
also displayed in a consistent fashion.
o The terminology "Unassigned" has been replaced by the more precise
phrase "Reserved by IETF", indicating the body that has the token
to permit reassignment of the status of this address block.
o The "Formerly Site-Local" entry in the body of the registry has
been replaced with an explicit reference to deprecation. A
similar treatment is proposed for 0200::/8, although the RFC
number for the deprecation document has yet to be assigned. There
is a distinction drawn between the current status of a registry
and the set of registry actions that have lead to the current
state. The registry table describes the current status of the
registry, while the text footnotes are used to describe the set of
transactions leading to the current state, including any former
states.
o Annotations that are references to footnotes are included in the
registry in a separate column.
o The text commentary on unicast, multicast and anycast addresses
has been removed, as there is no distinction between anycast and
unicast addresses and multicast addresses are explicitly flagged
in the registry.

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc4147">RFC 4147</a> IANA IPv6 Registry August 2005</span>
o A note and a corresponding reference to <a href="./rfc1881">RFC1881</a> was added to
record the formal delegation of the IPv6 address management
function to IANA.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. Global Unicast IPv6 Address Registry</span>
The proposed registry format for Global Unicast IPv6 address block
allocations is indicated by example, using the registry state that
was current as of preparation of this document, in Figure 2. The
registry notes the current allocations, and does not include any
notation of intended future allocations or reservations. All address
space not listed in this registry forms the IANA unallocated address
pool, to be allocated by IANA as per the prevailing address
allocation policies.
The proposed format of the registry is a title line, the date of the
last change to the registry, the registry in a tabular format, notes
and references.
The table uses 4 columns. Within the table, the first column is an
IPv6 address prefix, using a hexadecimal notation of the address
prefix and a prefix length. There are no overlapping address blocks
in the first column. The entries here describe only IANA allocations
of address blocks. Temporary IANA reservations for future
allocations, allocation expansion windows and any other internal IANA
states are not described in this registry. The second column
describes the current disposition of the address block, by noting
either the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) to whom the address block
was assigned, or the intended use of the address block. The third
column is the date of the IANA allocation, including the day of the
month. The fourth column uses numeric footnote notation to reference
any additional text associated with the address block.
The notes in the registry may include a summary of previous
disposition status values associated with an address block, as this
summary is specifically not included in the registry table. The
notes are numbered sequentially.
The reference section uses a conventional citation format. The
references include documents referenced in the registry table and
documents referenced in the notes.

<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-3.1" href="#section-3.1">3.1</a>. Notes on Proposed Format Changes to the Registry</span>
o The current registry name "iana-ipv6-tla-assignments" should be
changed to "iana-ipv6-unicast-address-assignments".
o The title of the registry has been altered to remove the reference
to "TOP LEVEL AGGREGATION IDENTIFIER".
o The TLA and Sub-TLA identifier assignments have been rolled into a
single set of address prefixes and their assignment.
o The text commentary at the start of the registry contents has been
removed.
o Binary value notation of the address prefixes has been removed.
o Further commentary on assignments, such as the planned phaseout of
the 6BONE, is placed in a footnote.
o The registry continuation lines using ellipsis notation have been
removed.
o Only assigned addresses are listed. All unassigned addresses,
marked in the original IANA registry with the assignment note of
"(future assignment)" have been removed, as has the entry marked
"reserved *)".
o Address assignments are listed using prefix size notation of the
actual allocation, rather than reporting the allocation in sub-
units of /23 prefixes.
o The date of the IANA action includes the day of the month as well
as the month and year.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-4" href="#section-4">4</a>. IANA Considerations</span>
IANA is advised to adopt these formats for the IPv6 address registry
and the IPv6 Global Unicast address registry.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-5" href="#section-5">5</a>. Security Considerations</span>
Security of the Internet's routing system relies on the ability to
authenticate an assertion of unique control of an address block.
Measures to authenticate such assertions rely on validation that the
address block forms part of an existing allocated address block, and
that there is a trustable reference from the IANA address registry to
the RIR, and a trustable reference from the RIR's registry to a Local
Internet Registry or end-user Internet Service Provider.

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc4147">RFC 4147</a> IANA IPv6 Registry August 2005</span>
The proposed format for the IANA registry is a small step towards the
creation of a registry that can be used as a trust point for
commencing a chain of address validation. Consideration should be
given to IANA registry publication formats that are machine
parseable, and also the use of file signatures and associated
certificate mechanisms to allow applications to confirm that the
registry contents are current, and that they have been published by
the IANA.
