I find it mildly horrifying that they hand out /32s.
- Macha 3y agoThere can be as many /32s in IPv6 as devices on the IPv4 internet.
- sgjohnson 3y agoRIPE hands out a /29 to any member without any requirements. For anything beyond a /29 you need to prove that you actually need it, but /29s they hand out like candies. As a LIR you can then lease out /32s. And when you run out of space to lease, request more space. I know a guy with 15x /29s. I actually find this scary too, but I mean, it’s /29s, not /8s.
- growse 3y agoIt is quite expensive to be a full member of RIPE though. Most people with smaller requirements can go through a sponsoring LIR to get PI space (like a /48).
