classically, if they have no plan to be connected, they don't get address space. may have been true when the only network was ARPAnet. with the advent of Internet, if you could demonstrate runing IP you could get addresses (mostly true) remember the "connected/unconnected" database? nope. sri internet days, netsol address days, ... even today, it says if you will be connecting to the network. true... but the "network" has changed over time.
so, what you actually mean is that you don't like the way things are and would like to change the status quo. that's discussable. randy
