ISPs selling IP address space
by Pekka Savola 11 Jan '05

11 Jan '05

Hi, Let's assume an organization would qualify for e.g., /25 address allocation. When obtaining Internet connectivity, the ISP gives two offers, for example: - 100 EUR/mo for a /27 - 200 EUR/mo for a /25 (otherwise the terms are same, and the technical implementation is the same.) I recall this is not allowed. Are there any recourses in this kind situations? Threaten the ISP with LIR audit? ;-) The last RIPE document which seems to say that IP address must not be sold is RIPE-185 (AFAIR), which has been obsoleted -- the newer address policy documents seem to be quiet about this. RIPE-185 said: [under Publishing Local IR Policy] 2) Charging Policies A Local IR must publish its charging policy. The policy is defined in ripe-152 [Norris96a]: "Address space is a finite resource with no intrinsic value and direct costs cannot be ascribed to it. While they may not charge for address space as such, registries may charge for their administrative and technical ser- vices. Registries must publish their operating procedures and details of the services they offer and the conditions and terms that apply, including scales of tariffs if applicable." -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds."
