Additional IPs - one off or monthly payment?

Zavarzin

Hi,

when I order additional IPs along with a VPS, will I be charged one time only for IPs setup or on a monthly basis?

How does it usually work in most cases?

So it usually works on a monthly basis?
Any hosts that offer IPs with a one time setup fee? With OpenVZ and Centos 5 x64?

OVH, end of the list.

IPs always have an associated annual host, even if the provider buys legacy space, so I wouldn't trust anyone advertising a "one-time fee".

But expect that to change back to monthly charges

Yeah, like before. This is a business strategy of ovh

True, they already did it once.

Do Ovh pay to lir or ripe for the ips yearly or only once?

Both - OVH buys legacy space which is paid with their RIPE account (around 1500EUR regardless of prefixes/size)
