There is no reason why a site should just because of 1 or 2 IPs pay extra ranging between $1.5 to $2k. Following the allocation size based on prefix as exhibited in that of
the LIR is just as fair enough. I am not against slightly increasing the
pricing of what is in existence before, however turning IP addressing
allocation to a yam purchasing scenario is just not proper....especially
as this is coming at a time where we are all thinking and brain
storming on how v4 can be exhausted legitimately and within Africa, in other to perhaps increase v6 deployment. <br><br>This new pricing IMHO is a killer to that move!<br><br>Regards<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
