[arin-discuss] Food for thought: IPv4 accountability.

[Brad Anouar]

Les,

We found ourselves in the same predicament three years ago when we decided to get our own IP space and return our providers'. Because we had to reassign all of our customers' IPs, we were forced to do a few at a time. After proving that we have efficiently allocated our existing IPs, Arin was kind enough to grant us the new IP space with the condition of promising to return the old one to our provider over the next couple of years.

I too am in an IPV4 predicament where by the termination of an upstream
provider has caused a forced renumbering of 2 /20's and several /24's on
our network. I prepare myself for the *grief* of attempting to procure
an equivalent or even a stripped down amount of space so that we can
start the renumbering process for our datacenter clients. Which means I
need additional space prior to returning the reassignment from the
former upstream.

Am I allowed to get before giving?
