Karl, Where does the 6K come from? AUD$4,175 is the amount - It consists of the "Associate Member Fee" (AUD 675) and the IP Resource Application Fee (AUD 3,500) Then AUD1180 for a /48 each year. ...Skeeve -- Skeeve Stevens, CEO eintellego Pty Ltd - The Networking Specialists skeeve@eintellego.net / www.eintellego.net Phone: 1300 753 383, Fax: (+612) 8572 9954 Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 / skype://skeeve www.linkedin.com/in/skeeve ; facebook.com/eintellego -- eintellego - The Experts that the Experts call - Juniper - HP Networking - Cisco - Arista -

If your big enough to get your own GUA and have the dollars to get it routed then do that. If you are forced to use PA (think home networks) then having a ULA prefix as well is a good thing.

In Oz it costs real money to get IPv6 address space from the RIR (APNIC). Around AUD$6K in the first year, around AUD$1100 each year thereafter.
Your /48, according to the ARIN website, cost you US$625 this year, will cost US$937.50 next year, and $1250 every year thereafter.
Fairly trivial amounts for most commercial entities, but prohibitive for all but the most enthusiastic home user.
