PROAXXS IP ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT/JUSTIFICATION POLICY
IP addresses are leased to Proaxxs
from ARIN - The American Registry
for Internet Numbers. In turn, Proaxxs allocates those IP addresses to our
customers for usage while connected to the Proaxxs network. The size of
the IP address allocation varies and is solely based on the continually
demonstrated and documented need of the customer. This policy is intended
for customers who are requesting/purchasing additional IP addresses, for
usage with one or more Proaxxs related services.
● If you have more than one Proaxxs
service, please do not attempt to utilize the allocated IP addresses on a
server/service other than that which they have been specifically assigned
to. Failure to do so may cause IP conflicts in the network, or may cause
your existing IPs not to function. IP addresses may be configured only to
work with the specific server/service they were assigned to.
● Clients MUST use 80% of their
existing IP addresses prior to requesting an additional allocation. New
customers will receive a minimal allocation based on their immediate
requirement. Thereafter, the size of allocated IP address blocks may be
increased based on the speed that the customer utilizes and justifies all
previously allocated IP address blocks.
● Whois: Proaxxs is required by ARIN
to provide information on which entity is using the IP space. This
information can be provided to ARIN either via SWIP or an RWhois server.
Proaxxs documents the loan of IP addresses to a customer via a publicly
available Referral WHOIS (rwhois) server. If a customer is assigned static
IP addresses, the customer information will be added to our RWhois server.
● At any time, Proaxxs may require a
customer to justify its IP address allocation. If the customer is unable
to do so, its ability to obtain future allocations may be jeopardized and
its existing allocation may be revoked or decreased.
● When a customer requests an IP
address space allocation from Proaxxs that will be used for IP-based web
hosting, the customer will need to provide technical justification as to
why they are providing IP-based web hosting instead of name-based web
hosting. Proaxxs is required to provide this information to ARIN. For
customers requesting space for web hosting, justification should include a
list of IP addresses currently being used for web hosting, and a list of
domains being hosted. If IP-based hosting is being done, a list of
technical reasons why named-based hosting cannot be done should be
included.
Main reasons for
Justification:
Domain1.com - SSL Cert
Domain2.com - Nameservers ns1/ns2 (2 IPs)
Private Name servers, Mail servers, Private FTP Access,
SSL Sites are valid reasons for IP Address Justification.
“I would not like my domains to share the same IP
address,” is not a valid reason.
