We're working on obtaining our initial IP allocation and an ASN. ARIN has asked us to consider a 4-byte ASN, as they are low on 2-byte ASN. I don't know the ramifications of either. Any of you have recommendations or insight?

I think its just a matter of equipment compatibility. We have a 32-bit ASN and I think most new applicants get those. I had the same question when I joined ARIN and from what I found at the time, it didn't seem to matter. A quick google search on which to apply for resulted in this answer: If you are using the latest equipment and software and your upstream provider supports 32-bit ASNs, apply for a 32-bit ASN. If you are using older equipment and software, apply for a 16-bit ASN. *Josh Shields** Technology Director**, MyTELEPATH, Inc.* Support: (952) 400-6000 | Direct: (952) 400-6014 support@mytelepath.com | jshields@mytelepath.com <https://www.facebook.com/MyTelepath> Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/MyTelepath> <http://twitter.com/#!/mytelepath> Twitter<http://twitter.com/#!/mytelepath> <http://www.linkedin.com/company/mytelepath> LinkedIn<http://www.linkedin.com/company/mytelepath> <http://blog.mytelepath.com/> Blog <http://blog.mytelepath.com/> On Fri, Jun 7, 2013 at 11:42 AM, Eric Crist <ecrist@claimlynx.com> wrote:
