Perhaps I missed the point, but why wouldn't you want to use NAT and keep
those IPs for external routers, firewalls, etc? If you are a small shop I
could see giving out static routable IPs, but if you have more than 20
users, and for the added security, why not just use DHCP and NAT on your
routers?
Just a question as I am always interested in discussions regarding IP
scheming.

Technically the ISP will give you addresses whenever if you have a need. I
usually tell them how many computers we have and tell them to give me
double. We have about 100 employees, but we are using a class-C.

Subject: IP Justification
I'm using around 8 IP's right now, but my ISP is going bye bye at the end of
this month. I'd like to have a block of IP's from the new ISP, just in case
I need more etc. etc. What kind of ammunition do you guys use to "justify"
your need for IP's? We currently have 128, but that's way too many. I can
take care of everything I need with less than 32 for now, but "you never
know" as far as the future. Any thoughts or strategies, experiences with
this document?
