Cable&Wireless for one. I worked with several customers who never used the /24's allocated by C&W, but even after repeatedly telling C&W we don't need them, C&W wouldn't take them back. Every circuit came with a /24 whether you needed it or not.
Was that recently or some time ago? I have a client with pending orders for a few C&W DS1's and they're giving him /27's at each site. Each site will have a T1/ethernet router doing NAT and VPN, so in theory, all that's needed is the serial interface IP, but they really wanted to give him a /27 per site, and we figure it's worth taking just in case we eventually want to give something a public IP at one of these sites. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis@lewis.org*| I route System Administrator | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
