Completing the IP Justification Form

The IP justification form is a requirement from ARIN, which is regularly audited. Each form submitted will be manually reviewed for accuracy. You must provide valid data to receive additional IP allocations.

The IPv4 request form is split up into four sections.

Requested Subnet Size: From this drop down, select the IP block size that you're requesting, this is in addition to any IP blocks you currently have assigned to you.

/29 - 8 IPs, 5 Usable
/28 - 16 IPs, 13 Usable
/27 - 32 IPs, 29 Usable
/26 - 64 IPs, 61 Usable
/25 - 128 IPs, 125 Usable
/24 - 256 IPs, 253 Usable

Existing Assignments: You must provide details about IP blocks that you have been previously assigned. For each IP you must list the customer that the IP is assigned/re-assigned to, what the IP is being used for, and a domain/hostname if applicable. The customer must be either a valid full name or company. The usage should be something that absolutely requires it's own IP and a service/usage that cannot be shared with any other IP due to technological limitations. For any IPs that are not usable, please either list not usable or N/A.

What you need to tell us? Please read all information below.
