My understanding is that a handle prefix is tied to a specific IP address. Best to check this with the folk at CNRI who I have always found to be most helpful.

The handle prefix is something we do not need to worry about at this stage as we are not currently using a global or local handle, although I'm assuming the handle prefix would be the same for two or more servers in a cluster as the handle prefix identifies the site and not the individual server. That said, my understanding of handles is limited (we've just started investigating setting up a handle for our production server) and I my assumptions may need correcting.
