Post Body

My company has a couple IP address ranges that were provided by the ISPs a long time ago. I’m not a fan of using those, especially since these were obtained before the IP address space was fully assigned, but it predates my employment. Like I said, a long time ago. Now I’m wondering if we are forever tied to those ISPs, or is there some way to retain those addresses even if we don’t maintain a service with those ISPs? Changing those addresses is really not an option.

Are there any rules or mechanisms that would allow us to keep those addresses, short of signing a contract just for those IP addresses?
