Smaller than /24?

Sorry if I'm in the wrong place!

Don't need a /24 (can't afford that yet!!) BUT would to talk about smaller options? Anyone point me somewhere? Been a member of LEB for years, and LET for some time!

Appreciate anything you can help me with!

    A /24 is the minimum that's globally routable. You can't announce anything smaller than that. Your only option would be to rent from your provider.

  • First of all, what's your actual goal?
    Is it just having multiple IPs, anycast (or similar) or actually routing stuff?

    @AlexBarakov is correct here. However, there are some providers who can offer you smaller number of IPs over tunnels. It is not a great approach, as you will be adding an extra hop, and the provider might not be in close proximity both geographically or net wise. Other than that, yeah it's doable.
