How can we help you?

Now that the other RIRs are assigning from their own last /8s or will do so in the near future, does this mean that AFRINIC will see an increase in its own IPv4 allocation rates?

AFRINIC has seen consumption rates increase rapidly over the last few months. In the near future, it is inevitable that AFRINIC will become the only region where, with correct justification, significant amounts of IPv4 address space can be obtained. We expect this to lead to a sharp increase in requests and our Member Services Team is preparing accordingly for this. All requests are evaluated and any eventual allocations are made according to the community-defined IPv4 allocation policy.
