Fwd: Re: Re: What is the most standard subnet length on internet

"You have to change your server's IP address if you want move your server to other place"  

 -> It is very natural case, but some customer could think of it will be okey to move if they have C class.
but I have different idea. because the border router of that center is annoucing more greater IP block,
and if customer move to other center with C class, then I have to newly announce that C class at the border router of other center.
and then it is the time my hierachy structure is broken.  
To prevent this situation, I'm trying to find some standard material every person would understand and accept.

Suresh,

Yes, I guess my concern is close to the second meaning.

It seems so simple. Currently annoucement of /24 seems to be okey, most upstream providers accept this.
However I wonder if there is any ground rule based on any standard or official recommandation.
If there is some standardized rule about prefix length to be annouced, I will make my bgp & IP allocation policy of 
each data center of my company, and I will be able to more fairly and squarely speak to my customer like this 
"You have to change your server's IP address if you want move your server to other place"

Chi Young, let me clarify one thing here ..

Do you mean IP allocation as in subnet allocation, swipping in apnic
or through a rwhois server etc?

Or do you mean "what is the minimum subnet size I can announce on the
internet and have other providers not drop it on the floor"?
