We have very good relations with our customers, but once I have to pull detailed growth and customer statistics from our customers, it gets kinda awkward. Because these really aren't any of my (or RIPE's for that matter) business.
I'm not sure that's your call to make. I'm all for responsible allocation of resources, but it should
really stop at asking expected growth for IP space and how subnets are to be allocated.
I got pointed to the rule 'A customer cannot hold more then 2 IP addresses in the PI space', what's up with that ?
IIRC it's more of a guideline than a "rule" Rules are in the policy document where it says: "PI space cannot be re-assigned or further assigned to other parties." So if you are indeed assigning adresses to your customers, you need PA space. I'm sure that the competent professionals at the NCC have pointed you to http://ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-471.html#9 already. This means that a customer with
three SSL webshops and three IP's isn't allowed host his server in that PI range ?
A customer is't "allowed" to do anything with your PI space. You are however allowed to use it to support your business. If I were you, I'd follow the advice of the NCC staff. -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is. A route indicates how we get there." Jon Postel
