Is there a similar process of justification to RIPE when you buy a "second hand" RIPE PI /24 like when you buy from RIPE?
You cannot buy a /24 from RIPE.
Right thanks, for such a small amount you'd have to get a PA.
So if you buy a /24 from somebody else do you have to justify it to RIPE? (prove good use of a /24 PA for example)?
If you don't have a legitimate need for it. i.e. can't justify it, why and how would you justify paying a lot of money for it?
I don't want one, I'm just curious on how that stuff works
For my use I'd start with ipv6 only to learn. But I don't know how strict it is to move a PI to another owner. Getting a /24 PA is pretty easy while being a nobody, but I have no clue about a PI. From RIPE it seems complicated though if you aren't already a provider; but to start a new business PI IPs seems better to me as you can move your machines without the need for your customers to change IP on their VM...
PI transfer is not so complicated, as far as I know. Maybe you have to send them a contract that you have overtaken all services running on this network, not more.
You can't "buy" the resources. They will never be yours, you will never "own" them, unless you buy pre-RIR resources, which is close to impossible.
OK. So change "buy" to "transfer for a fee".
and they still can be revoked by a RIR, for example if 'the original criteria of assignment are no longer fulfilled' . Not a normal practice today but you never know what will happen tomorrow, hence I'm pointing it out strongly.
A single /24 is ALWAYS justified as multihoming if you have an ASN.
got /23 PI available 9 euro /IP
And you really had to necro spam it @orfi ?
