Yes, they should be able to (assuming proper utilization percentages, etc.
etc.).
Or is ARIN going to say NO, you can't have 1000 addresses for your 1000
customers all of whom have their address "in use" 24x7 and force ISP's to
use IP Masquerading at the ISP level to service all their dedicated customers.
Heh. At that point, we'll just assign each ISP *ONE* IP address, and demand
that they make it work beyond that point on their own. :) Should make
routing tables significantly easier to manage.
