- More content in those region where v4 is getting exhausted will go v6 but then v6 deployment in our region is relatively low (someone says there is translation to the rescue)<br>
- Our region will continue to experience an increase in v4 requests from organizations that are more domicile in regions with v4 exhaustion. Perhaps this could be an opportunity to "by policy" improve ISP establishment in our region? Maybe yes. Should we also "by policy" ensure addresses within this region are used more within the region.... how do we encourage this as the region seem to be comfortable with *translation*. Can policy make this happen?</p><p dir="ltr">Cheers!<br>

Three weeks ago, on 20 May 2014, LACNIC's available pool of IPv4 space became less then a /9 equivalent. This triggered the activation of IANA's Recovered IPv4 Pool in terms of Global Policy GPP-IPv4-2011.<br>
<br>
Today, 10 June 2014, LACNIC's available pool of IPv4 space became less than a /10 equivalent (4194302 IPv4 addresses). This triggers LACNIC's IPv4 exhaustion policy.<br>
