Each Dedicated Server will receive a routed block of IP addresses, this is the most secure way of allocating IP addresses, as IP addresses cannot be accidentally used by others. Each block has a total number of addresses and a usable number of addresses. The usable number is always (on our networks) three less than the overall number of addresses.
If you require more than 64 IP addresses a justification would need to be made to RIPE, we can assist you with the justification and complete the required paperwork, please get in touch to discuss your requirements further.
