Quoth Bradley Dunn on Wed, 9 October: : I think any plan to charge for address space has to be accompanied by : charges per route. If not, what are the incentives to aggregate? : : For example, let's say that an organization needs a /16. Let's say there : is a market for addresses, but they find it is cheaper to buy 256 /24s : instead of buy one /16. What is the incentive for them to get the /16? On the other hand, in practice one would certainly expect 256 /24s to be substantially more expensive than one /16. I'd also very much like to hear more about IPX proxies.
