Demon Internet Services provide an IP address for every dial-up customer. Most other ISPs have taken the view that this is a waste of valuable IP space and allocate IP addresses dynamically. How should our industry respond to ISPs who behave selfishly and do not take into account the good of the network? Is it just selfish or do they have good reasons? Dynamic address assignment and (static!) access control don't go very well together, which could be a reason for static address assignment. Piet
