Are they both doing it correct, or are they both wrong?They have repeatedly disagreed, on two separate occasions, effectively claiming they themselves are the customers:... they are assigning IP addresses to their own equipment, which belongs to the provider at all times, and the contact can be the same contact for all their resources, therefore: they are not necessarily required to display a SWIP in WHOIS. They just need to keep certain documentation.
The addresses assigned to their hardware interfaces may fit that argument. The addresses assigned to customer virtuals, OTOH, IMHO do not really meet that test. The virtual and its content are not property of Linode, they belong to the customer. Yes, the customer is using Linode's hardware as an execution environment for their virtual, but the address range is assigned to the customer virtual. At that point, I would argue that the policy for SWIP does, in fact, apply. Owen
