Bonjour, No you'r not the only one in this case, we have customers with AS number and we are ambarrassed they do not announce there IP because it's icluded in our total agregate IP space, we will be very happy to obtain 2 to 4 ( \23 or \22) for each of them according to there needs, maybe RIPE should help us to find a solution about this situation.

Hi all,
We would like to request another IP block from RIPE, regardless of our current allocation (which we use for our day-to-day assignments to customers), in order to assign from this block only to customers using BGP. I would not want to assign BGP customers from our regular blocks, as it would create a need to subnet the BGP advertisements on these blocks. We would like to have a block pre-intended for such fragmentation.
However, as far as I recall RIPE's procedure, one can request another IP allocation only after a certain percentage (50% AFAIR) of his allocation has been assigned.
So - am I the only person thinking this is the correct way to do that? Is it possible to request a block for such usage, regardless of the current allocation's usage?
