ARIN's fee for a /24 is $250 https://www.arin.net/fees/fee_schedule.html That's about 1/15th of the price of a /24 on the market. Of course, they don't have any /24s. Unless, of course, you're deploying IPv6 and just need the /24 for your NAT64 box, DS-Lite AFTR, or MAP-T BR.

It might be archaic thinking but back in the day routers were not all that powerful and table size was a concern so /24 was it. ARIN kind of figured if you were smaller than a /24 you were not really on their radar and you needed to talk to an upstream provider. It is a big system to manage

Hi, needing a /24 to participate in BGP has always been sort of a world-wide standard. Even before the explosion of the IPv4 BGP full table (which has more than doubled in the last decade), that was the standard. Because . if carriers (and ISPs) accepted upstream < /24, then you'd

Yes, exactly right. You would probably have to tunnel the /27 back to where the >/24 lives. That's the only way I can see of it working "anywhere". That's a technically valid solution but maybe not so hot if you are looking for high redundancy/availability since you are dependent on the
