ASNs numbers are plentiful, and easy to get. IPv4 space, not so easy.

- teddyh 6y agoPlease define “easy”.
- icedchai 6y agoEasy: You fill out a form. If you have a need and meet the technical requirements (multihoming), you get one. Not easy: With IPv4, you'll be waiting for ages because they're out in most regions (ARIN.) You'll have to acquire one through a broker. This is time and money. Fortunately, I have an IPv4 allocation (/24, old "class C") from back in the 90's.
