[6bone] pTLA request by CTN1 - review closes 16 December 2003

[Tim Chown]

Hi Marc,

You should still have no problem getting IPv6 address space for your company.

Either you should be able to get (production) IPv6 address space from an 
existing European provider, or alternatively since NDSoftware is backing your 
request just get address space from their experimental pTLA.

Alternatively if you meet the requirements and pay the RIPE NCC membership/
LIR fee (I believe around 2,500 Euros) you can apply for your own production 
prefix, if you meet the requirements:

(see Section 5.1)

Good luck!
Tim
