Hello NANOG...
I have a client interested in picking up a new AS number but they really want it to be 3 or 4 digits in length.
Is there a process to request this from ARIN, or doss anyone know of unused ASns fitting this that anyone is looking to sell for some quick cash?
It's part of the ARIN transfer process, https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#eight specific 8.3, "IPv4 numbers resources and ASNs may be transferred according to the following conditions." ARIN has a Specified Transfer Listing Service, https://www.arin.net/resources/transfer_listing/index.html so you could check there. I didn't see any ASNs listed, so you may need to call a broker, such as one listed under https://www.arin.net/resources/transfer_listing/facilitator_list.html A list of ASNs that have been transferred policy can be found at https://www.arin.net/public/transferLog.xhtml#NRPM-8.3ASNs
Thanks! James
Hope that helps, Lee
