IOW, I don't see any clear solutions to this problem for existing contracts.
To be honest, me neither, but I wanted some community feedback to see if there would be a solution I didn't think of.
In my mind, this is the MAIN problem with IPv4 exhaustion. Anyone who got IPv4 address before exhaustion can provide services, anyone else cannot. Think back to the Internet in 1990 and where it would be today if the phone companies held all of the IPv4 space and you had to go through them for all connectivity. While James Blessing's "use IPv6" suggestion is perhaps not easy, it's the best answer we have. :( -- Shane
