Number Resource Performance

August 2026

Resource Allocation Performance

These performance targets relate to the allocation of unicast IP addresses and AS numbers to Regional Internet Registries, in conformance with global allocation policies. Individual requests are expanded upon later in the report.

Reverse DNS Performance

These performance targets relate to the provision of reverse domain resolution (i.e. using in-addr.arpa and ip6.arpa). Regional Internet Registries submit modifications to DNS records for their respective number resource allocations through an API, and IANA is responsible for propagating those amendments in the DNS.
