This proposal includes a specific section on minimum requirements for legacy resources, along with provisions for their potential recovery in the event of non-compliance.
Rationale (Describe the problem you intend to solve)Legacy resources are those assigned before the creation of Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). Any Internet resources (IP address block or ASN) assigned before 28 December 1997 is considered a legacy resource.
Those who received these resources may already be members of LACNIC if they have requested other resources and pay the corresponding membership fees. However, some recipients of legacy resources may not have signed the membership contract nor paid any fees, and yet receive certain services (except RPKI), subsidized by the rest of the membership base.
If they believe it is appropriate, the Board has the authority to establish an alternative fee to receive these services, as APNIC has done. However, regardless of the Board's authority to make a decision in this regard, the community can decide that the use of those resources must be beneficial to the community and that, if they are not being used and announced, or if the WHOIS database is outdated and their holder cannot be contacted, they may be recovered.
This will avoid:
a) unused resources (the organizations that received them —or the person who managed them— have disappeared, or they no longer need them in full or in part);
b) resources that are being used maliciously or without the original recipients’ consent;
c) outdated contacts, which make it difficult or impossible to solve cases of abuse.
It's even possible that some of these organizations are unaware of the existence of these resources, including those received from LACNIC, so contacting them will be mutually beneficial both for them and for the community. In addition, if the board so decides, these organizations could receive RPKI or other services even without becoming LACNIC members.

New text7.6. Legacy Resources Management
LACNIC may continue to provide services to legacy resources subject to the conditions established by the Board of Directors, provided that:
• These resources are announced and utilized.
• Their reverse resolution records are maintained.
• Their allocation and assignment information is updated in the WHOIS database managed by LACNIC or the NIRs, as applicable, and that the abuse-c contact attribute is maintained up to date.
Upon ratification of this policy, LACNIC may initiate a transition period of one year, during which it will contact all organizations holding legacy resources and inform them of the need to comply with the policy. These organizations will be offered the possibility of becoming LACNIC members to maintain their services, with the options that the Board of Directors may specify.
After this period, if the requirements above are not met, the Board of Directors reserves the right to cease providing certain services or initiate the resource recovery procedures.
Additional informationIn several RIRs, including LACNIC, legacy resources lose their legacy status when a membership contract is signed or when they are transferred. In other cases, nothing is specified in the policies.
In addition, APNIC has recently approved an equivalent policy, and the APNIC Executive Council (equivalent to the LACNIC Board of Directors) has passed a resolution to allow legacy resource holders to receive services —including RPKI— without becoming members.

Esta propuesta incorpora una sección específica relativa a cumplimientos mínimos en caso de recursos legados, así como su posible recuperación en caso de incumplimiento.
Rationale (Describe the problem you intend to solve)Son considerados recursos legados aquellos que fueron asignados antes del surgimiento de los RIRs (Registros de Internet Regionales). Cualquier recurso de Internet (bloque IP, ASN) con fecha de asignación anterior al 28 de diciembre de 1997 es considerado legado.
Los que recibieron dichos recursos, pueden ser miembros de LACNIC si solicitan otros recursos, y pagan las cuotas de membresía correspondientes. Sin embargo, puede haber casos de receptores de recursos legados que no han firmado el contrato de membresía, ni pagan cuotas, y sin embargo reciben ciertos servicios (excepto RPKI), subvencionados por el resto de la membresía.
Es una función del directorio, si así lo considera conveniente, por ejemplo, establecer una cuota alternativa a la de membresía, para recibir esos servicios, como así se ha hecho en APNIC. Sin embargo, independientemente de que el directorio pueda tomar una decisión en este aspecto, lo que la comunidad si puede decidir, es que al menos esos recursos tengan un uso beneficioso para la comunidad y que si esos recursos no están siendo utilizados y anunciados o los datos en whois no estén actualizados y sean contactables, puedan ser recuperados.
De esta forma evitamos que haya recursos que puedan:
a) no estar siendo usados (han desaparecido las organizaciones que los recibieron, o la persona que los gestionaba, o ya no los necesitan parcial o totalmente);
b) estar siendo usados maliciosamente o sin consentimiento de los receptores originales;
c) tener contactos desactualizados, lo que dificulta o impide la resolución de casos de abuso.
Es posible que incluso algunas de estas organizaciones desconozcan la existencia de los recursos, incluso de LACNIC, y contactar con ellos será beneficioso para ellos y para la comunidad, además, si así lo establece el directorio, podrían recibir servicios RPKI u otros aún sin asociarse.
El 16 de Junio de 2026, el Directorio de LACNIC abre un plazo de 6 meses para formalizar el vínculo con las organizaciones titulares de recursos legados.
Current text(no existe)
New text7.6. Gestión de Recursos Legados
Los recursos legados, podrán seguir recibiendo servicios de LACNIC, en las condiciones que dicte el Directorio, siempre y cuando:
• Las organizaciones titulares hayan concurrido, en plazo, al proceso de formalización del vínculo con LANIC iniciado por el Directorio en Junio de 2026, habiendo justificado su derecho de uso.
• Sean anunciados y utilizados.
• Se mantenga el registro de resolución inversa.
• Se mantenga actualizada la información de distribuciones y asignaciones en la base de datos Whois de LACNIC o NIRs, según corresponda, así como el atributo de contacto abuse-c.
Si no se cumplen los puntos anteriores, el Directorio podría decidir activar procedimientos de recuperación.
Additional informationEn algunos RIRs, incluso en LACNIC, los recursos legados dejan de serlo si se firma el contrato de membresía o son transferidos. En otros casos, no se dice nada al respecto.
En el 2021 el Executive Council de APNIC (equivalente al Directorio de LACNIC) aprobó una una resolución para permitir a los poseedores legados recibir servicios sin asociarse, incluyendo RPKI. Esto fue originado por una propuesta de política, que fue demorada en espera de la resolución y ratificada en el 2023, en términos similares a la presente.
Como resultado de la resolución y la política, APNIC ha actualizado los registros de 7.342.080 direcciones IPv4, de las cuales 4.826.880 han sido confirmadas, y el resto (2.515.200), han sido recuperadas. Datos de la última actualización en Abril de 2024. No se han presentado casos de reclamaciones legales dada la falta de demostración de la titularidad de los recursos reclamados.
