ARIN implemented a policy in February (based on a recommendation from the Advisory Council) for multihomed organizations. Basically, if you are multihomed and you meet the following criteria: - efficiently utilized a /21 - can justify more address space - agree to return the /21 to whatever organization you received it from within 18 months than you may be issued a /20 from a reserved /19 from ARIN. The idea is that you may announce the full /19 but you cannot use any of the second /20 until you go back to ARIN and justify it. - Kim Hubbard ARIN > > -- > -- *-----------------------------* Phil Howard KA9WGN * -- > -- | Inturnet, Inc. | Director of Internet Services | -- > -- | Business Internet Solutions | eng at intur.net | -- > -- *-----------------------------* philh at intur.net * -- >
