ARIN doesn't require or want you to SWIP >your /30 and /32 allocations. First sentence wasn't in dispute of course. :) >An _address_allocation_ that small just doesn't >require that level of public contact visibility." Here I disagree. As I (and others have pointed out) there are people with /32's that have just as much administrative control over their IP "space" as someone with a /25 might have. I have *several* customers, and we're not all that big of an ISP, that have *full* administrative control over their IP space with the one exception of reverse lookups. >Now, can we all agree that /30's and /32's are small allocations in the >grand scheme of it all and that the size or the organizations/networks that >use addresses in those allocations can not be accurately determined by the >size of the allocation alone? Good. I do definitely agree with this. :) -- Jeff McAdams Email: [email protected] Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
