That's insane....
I know right! Running out of ipv4 addresses. Somebody call arin and get some of these back lol.
They need to take them back from companies that really don't need them; these small offices with a block of /24? Fools.
Remembering circa 1998-2002 when IRC is still alive. A lot of shell providers even had 64 IPs per server for Vhost.
@Liam true, true
Server is in NL regardless... Ecatel.
Ecatel give free ips.
He probably has like 1k+ for all his servers as his a reseller.
that server is usually 95 euros from ecatel so his making a bit.
But 64 ip's is a little ridiculous for that server.
Maybe it is actually a /64. Lol!!!!
They're a cybercrime host.
I hear the owner of XSLTEL was involved in a hacking clan...?
I found a thread on WHT about it.
Stock : 2 servers only
It's not that uncommon. I've received requests for lowend servers with more than 64 IPs. Of course they were turned away, but i know some providers are willing to server such customers.
That smells like SEO voodoo.

Nah, the SEO zombies want IPs from different networks. These requests were by a very large and known VPN network, however we didn't want to deal with them.
Let me guess, Overplay?
They finally got their own ASN/Blocks though.
Nope, another one.
Perfect-Privacy?
There is a lot of waste in ipv4, considering the US gov't has over 100 million IPs, and corporations like Ford, who have little web presence, have their own /8.
And now with IPv6, they are for some reason allowing providers to have more than a /40. (A /40 is 2^88 ips)
I don't think i should name the company, even though they are not our customer. Still there is privacy even for company to company negotiations.
@vdnet RIPE allocates by default /32 ipv6 to LIRs. And one (a LIR) can get up to /29 if you want, no questions asked. But /32 is reasonable, for routing purposes.
@Liam nope, we are talking about different things. I am talking about people who asked us to give them a server with many (hundreds) IPs. Of course we said "NO", despite the fact that we have a lot of IPs.
/21 free IPs in Bulgaria.. And I had to literally beg my ISP to get me a single dedicated IP on my home/office connections.
xsltel is probably selling his old nodes as recent wht events caused majority is his clients to leave him, hence only 2 of those are available
ahhh that would make sense
