Please note that the RFC2050 reference to 25% and 50% is for end user address space, while the 80% refers the ISP's level of assignment of their allocated address space. I was refering to the confusion some ISP's exhibit in requesting %80 utilization by end users prior to additional assignments. Chuck
James: That's for allocation to ISP's. The RFC refered to end user utilization of the address space (see http://www.arin.net/regserv/ip-assignment.html). I've seen some ISP's incorrectly quote the 80% utilization to customers and expect them to achieve that before assigning them more IP address space.
