You must have a valid ASN to announce the leased IP addresses via BGP. If you do not have an ASN, you will need to obtain one from your Regional Internet Registry or use your upstream provider's ASN with their permission.

  • check_circle Verification code for authenticity
  • check_circle IP holder authorization signature
