APNIC IPv4 Exhaustion Information

We are writing to remind you that IPv4 exhaustion is an issue that should now be a priority for your organization.

Most of you will be aware that the central pool of IPv4 addresses held by IANA was depleted in February. APNIC is currently delegating IPv4 addresses from its remaining pool.

APNIC IPv4 Exhaustion Timeline?
-------------------------------

Due to a large number of variables, the timeline for APNIC IPv4 exhaustion is not predictable with any assured accuracy. However, it is the APNIC Secretariat's role to make as much Information as possible available to all stakeholders, so they may make their own assessments.

You can view the current APNIC IPv4 address pool, which is updated daily:
