O! Yes, thank you. This 2 in ARIN DB for now.<br />

They have routes, but not pay for this resource to RIPE. May be all this IPs in use. But I very sceptical that they use all 5 miliones IPs. Anyway they don't pay for this resources. And it is Legacy right now.<br />

<br />
What about this /8 network? It is legacy and doesn't have any routes.<br />

<br />
The same.<br />
<br />
Do you need another examples?<br />
<br />
Case 6. Inetnum: 171.28.0.0 - 171.30.255.255 ( 196 608 IPs ). ASSIGNED PI. Global Crossing.<br />
a) Based on current and new charging scheme RIPE will charge for this resource only 50 EUR.<br />
b) This network has routes for part of space ( 171.30.0.0/16).<br />
<br />
Case 7. Inetnum: 193.244.0.0 - 193.245.255.255 ( 131 072 IPs ). ASSIGNED PI. KBC Group NV<br />
a) Based on current and new charging scheme RIPE will charge for this resource only 50 EUR.<br />
b) This network doesn't have any routes. <br />
<br />
Case 8. Inetnum: 148.252.0.0 - 148.253.255.255 ( 131 072 IPs ). ASSIGNED PI. Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA)<br />
a) Based on current and new charging scheme RIPE will charge for this resource only 50 EUR.<br />
b) This network doesn't have any routes. <br />
<br />
Case 9. Inetnum: 161.89.0.0 - 161.90.255.255 ( 131 072 IPs ). ASSIGNED PI. Atos Origin.<br />
a) Based on current and new charging scheme RIPE will charge for this resource only 50 EUR.<br />
b) This network has routes.<br />
<br />
Case 10. Inetnum: 157.28.0.0 - 157.29.255.255 ( 131 072 IPs ). ASSIGNED PI. BT Italia S.p.A. (formerly Albacom S.p.A)<br />
a) Based on current and new charging scheme RIPE will charge for this resource only 50 EUR.<br />
b) This network has routes.<br />
<br />
I suggest to stop charge 50 EUR for each PI resource. We have a lot of examples when company can use more than 100 000 IPs and pay 50 EUR to RIPE. And we have a lot of LIRs which pay 2000 EUR Sign-up Fee and 1300-1800 EUR every year and use 512-1024 IP. The contribution from membership and value are too different.<br />
