Karl makes a real good point, renumbering places an un-needed burdon on the customer; one they never asked for, and probably never expected. I imagine stuff like this will just cause more and more customers to move into environments with NAT, or encourage them to join the bigger networks where renumbering would be less likely.
No matter how big the network provider is, if the service stinks and you want to switch providers, then you have got to renumber. Anyone who doesn't plan for renumbering is just plain foolish. ISPs should be advising their customers to be prepared for renumbering since it is in the customer's best interests. http://www.internetworld.com/print/1998/03/16/infrastructure/19980316-expert.html -- Michael Dillon - Internet & ISP Consulting Memra Communications Inc. - E-mail: michael () memra com http://www.memra.com - *check out the new name & new website*
