If you're an ISP and you can't afford even the highest price per IP on that list, you have bigger problems than how much it costs to bring Netflix traffic to your customers. Matthew Kaufman On 7/15/2014 7:58 AM, Brett Glass wrote: Matt: Here's the thing. With physical goods, there are econom

I can't believe that you actually believe that Brett. The reason the cost goes down as the number of IPs goes up is because these blocks are not managed address by address, they are managed as a single entity. ARIN has almost the same amount of labor and management involved whether it is a /24

I am just guessing but you probably have not been in the service provider space. Peering in my experience has always required an ASN and BGP as a pre-requisite. That is because all service providers use BGP communities and various other mechanisms to control these connections. Sure you could

If you are a multi-homed end user and you feel that a BGP configuration for that is a big management nightmare then you probably should not be running BGP. It would take me somewhere less than 15 minutes to set this up with two carriers and unless the carrier's are at drastically different tier

Matt, IP address portability isn't really a problem, but I understand your point of view a bit better. One of the things we figured out is that ARIN allows for non-connected operators to reallocate blocks. It does frequently confuse whoever the ISP is getting their tier 1 connectivity from and i

Netflix's arrangement isn't "peeering." (They call it that, misleadingly, as a way of attempting to characterize the connection as one that doesn't require money to change hands.) ISPs peer to connect their mutual Internet customers. Netflix is not an ISP, so it cannot be said to be "peering."
