- fanf2 6y agoThe minimum IPv4 allocation is a /24 because that is the smallest network that can be globally routed. Smaller networks are filtered out of BGP to stop routing tables getting too big too fast. Anything smaller than /24 has to be rented from a network provider who will advertise an aggregate route covering many customers.
