Public side of the NAT would need a huge IPv4 Public pool. Replacing Private pool to something bigger is a very corner case. Mobile Carriers identify subscribers not by the IP, they could easy tolerate many overlapping 10/8 even on one Mobile Core. Huge private pool 240/4 is needed only for Cloud providers that have many micro-services. Nothing to dispute here. The people that need it already well aware about it. Eduard From: Abraham Y.

These “multi-national conglo” has enough influence on the IETF to not permit it.": As classified by Vint Cerf, 240/4 enabled EzIP is an overlay network that may be deployed stealthily (just like the events reported by the RIPE-LAB). So, EzIP deployment does not need permission from the IETF. Regards, Abe (2024-01-11 21:38 EST) On 2024-01-11 01:17, Vasilenko Eduard wrote:

Hi, Karim: 1) If you have control of your own equipment (I presume that your business includes IAP - Internet Access Provider, since you are asking to buy IPv4 blocks.), you can get a large block of reserved IPv4 address for free by disabling the program codes in your current facility that has been disabling the use of 240/4 netblock. Please have a look at the below whitepaper. Utilized according to the outlined disciplines, this is a practically unlimited resources. It has been known that multi-national conglomerates have been using it without announcement. So, you can do so stealthily according to the proposed mechanism which establishes uniform practices, just as well. https://www.avinta.com/phoenix-1/home/RevampTheInternet.pdf 2) Being an unorthodox solution, if not controversial, please follow up with me offline. Unless, other NANOGers express their interests.
