Re: Private address and static IP as an commercial offer.
hi, so if we keep the ration on this logic this cost also should be proportional to the IP adresses assigned ? seems hard to justify what complies with the policy and what doesn't . arif, At 14.06.2001, you wrote:

2- I've seen the following advertisement on the net. Doesn't this constitute a violation of the policy as " IP addresses does not have any commercial value".
There is an argument to be made that assigning static IPs places a monetizable cost on the ISP, in terms of extra systems, configuration, support etc. Wouldn't these be legitimate reasons for charging?

Hello Arif,

You are certainly entitled to charge customers/requestors for the reimbursement of administrative fees associated with IP address block request and fulfillment. That cost should probably not be proportional to the size of the block assigned, as in many cases, the size does not change your cost of administration. If your administrative costs, as an LIR, go up as the size of an assignment does, then so be it. /david *--------------------------------* | Global Crossing IP Engineering | | Manager, Global IP Addressing | | TEL: (908) 720-6182 | | FAX: (703) 464-0802 | *--------------------------------*
