There is no such thing as a registered ISP, therefore there is no such list. Even the list at http://www.thelist.com only has about 50% of North American ISP's listed and less than that for other countries. Michael Dillon Voice: +1-604-546-8022 Memra Software Inc.

I don't know of a list of "registered" ISPs. I don't know where one would register, per se. The list of ISPs that most folks point people at is http://thelist.com. Since folks have to sign-up to be on that list, I suppose that is a list of "registered" ISPs. -- Stan | Academ Consulting Services |internet: sob(a)academ.com Olan | For more info on academ, see this |uucp: {mcsun|amdahl}!academ!sob Barber | URL- http://www.academ.com/academ |Opinions expressed are only mine.

Re: Renumbering and the Feb 15-16 NANOG meeting

Craig, I think that this would be an opportune time to mention the PIER [Procedures for Internet/Enterprise Renumbering] WG; the issues that you mentioned below fall with PIER's charter to accomplish. I would recommend that anyone interested get involved with PIER; information on the PIER mailing list is available at: http://www.isi.edu:80/div7/pier/papers.html We also have a block scheduled at the LA IETF, tentatively on Wed. March 6. - paul At 06:54 PM 2/17/96 -0800, Craig A. Huegen wrote: > >The problem, you ask?

I am provding access to right now 10 >ISP, that will be gone in a year, and have watch that many die so far. Obviously you don't know the right people. While some startup ISP's get a /19. Other startup ISP's with no customers get a /14. And why renumber if you can get IANA to align an entire /8 before you even have customers? Perhaps there are some unpublished criteria being used to distinguished between these ISP's market projections. The published criteria don't seem to be sufficient to explain these dispararities. Since these allocations happened before these startup ISP companies had any customers, I don't understand what method for evaluating "effective utilization" would lead to these companies getting such large allocations. Other than relying on rosy engineering diagrams and optimistic market studies. The phase of the moon seems to be as good an explaination as any. The backing of a large cable or bell operating company isn't a good predictor of success. Yet these type of companies seem to be getting larger than average allocations for their ISP businesses before having any customers.

Some of them will even if they don't see a direct benefit to them. I am not saying that all small ISPs are like that, but I at least know of some that are. -- Stan | Academ Consulting Services |internet: sob(a)academ.com Olan | For more info on academ, see this |uucp: {mcsun|amdahl}!academ!sob Barber | URL- http://www.academ.com/academ |Opinions expressed are only mine.
