How to request a larger IP Block assignment

For our records and to justify the allocation of a substantial block of IP addresses, we require you to complete the following form below to support@gradwell.com.

Please ensure that you include network diagram(s), and a complete list of equipment used to build the network; please describe in detail the services which will run upon the network, and provide technical justification why technologies such as Network Address Translation (NAT) cannot be employed to reduce your IP footprint. 

Our form is a variant of that used by RIPE, the Regional Internet Registry covering Europe; supporting notes for completion of our form may be located here.

Please note that per RIPE guidelines, you may not allocate IP address space for "administrative ease", described in detail here.

You must also comply with guidelines for utilization rates and not infringe upon the End User reservation policy, described here:
