As part of its standard service, DataShack will assign the amount of IP addresses that customers can justify for use on their server(s). Use this form for initial assignments and additional augments. DataShack.net conforms to the North American IP Registry (ARIN) policies regarding IP address allocation. We require a written justification form for any IP address blocks requested so that we can demonstrate to ARIN that IP addresses allocated to DataShack are being used efficiently. Per ARIN guidelines (http://www.arin.net/intro.html), organizations will be assigned address space based on immediate utilization plus three month utilization rate and supply documentation to justify the level of confidence. If you have any questions about the IP assignment policy or process, please refer to the IP Address Assignment Policy and Procedures, and RFC 2050 (ftp://www.arin.net/rfc/rfc2050.txt). The form for justifying IP use is provided below. Please complete the form and attach to corresponding ticket. Thank you.
