Say you're an ISP who needs a /16. Today, you can have it - and there's no reason to game the system. However, after the last /8 policy hits, you can't get this space from the NCC unless you either (assuming 2012-04 passes): A) join the NCC with 64 LIRs, each getting a /22 allocation at a total cost of €112.000, or B) get 256 /24 PI assignments at a price of €12.800. The B option is actually affordable. At €0.20 per address, it's way cheaper than what Microsoft paid for the second-hand Nortel addresses, for instance (US$11.25 per address IIRC). -- Tore Anderson Redpill Linpro AS - http://www.redpill-linpro.com
