You could get an block of your own (End User block in AfriNIC terms, which means "Provider Independent"). However, you could also get a block from Datanet. Here is how that works. They have an allocation, and you ask them for a sub-allocation (instead of an assignment, which is what you have now). A sub-allocation would be entered in the AfriNIC Db, and then assignments to Mountbatten customer servers would be made from that sub-alloc. Dnet would still have to make those assignments, but they would be much less likely to make you renumber if you have a sub-allocation. I would definitely ask them why they are requiring you to renumber so often!! -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is. A route indicates how we get there."
