IPv4 Depot —
IPv4 Leasing, Brokerage & IPv6 Transition Support
IPv4 Depot is a U.S.-based broker and lessor of IPv4 address space. Monthly IPv4 leasing, IPv4 buying and selling through registry transfers, clean-reputation inventory vetting, registry transfer paperwork and IPv6 transition support — fitting operating models whose hosting, ISP, cloud or service-provider business depends on IPv4 inventory and whose routing and registry posture cannot tolerate cheap, unverified or hijacked space. Fibi sources and negotiates IPv4 Depot on your behalf, at no cost to your business.
Portfolio
IPv4 Lease + Buy + Sell + Vetting + Registry Transfer + IPv6 Transition
Monthly IPv4 leasing, brokered acquisition and divestiture, clean-reputation inventory vetting, multi-registry transfer paperwork and IPv6 transition support — delivered by one broker rather than across separately operated registries, vetting services and transition consultants.
IPv4 Leasing: Monthly OpEx Inventory
Monthly leasing of registered IPv4 blocks — fitting operating models whose IPv4 demand is project-bound, growth-bound or contractual rather than permanent, whose finance posture cannot accommodate a large-block CapEx outlay this cycle, and whose registry strategy is deliberately deferring permanent acquisition until growth assumptions firm up.
IPv4 Buying & Acquisition
Brokered IPv4 acquisition through legitimate ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, LACNIC and AFRINIC transfers — fitting operating models whose hosting, ISP or service-provider business has long-term IPv4 inventory needs and whose finance posture treats IPv4 as a permanent capital asset rather than a leased OpEx line.
IPv4 Selling: Divest Unused Inventory
Sell-side brokerage for legacy IPv4 holders looking to monetize inventory beyond current need — fitting operating models holding more space than the operating plan justifies, whose finance posture wants to monetize the asset and whose engineering team cannot maintain registry-transfer paperwork or buyer-vetting capacity in-house for a one-time divestiture.
Clean-Reputation Inventory Vetting
Inventory verified for clean reputation, routability and registry status before delivery — fitting operating models whose hosting, mail or service-provider business cannot tolerate addresses appearing on blocklists, RBLs or known-hijack lists, and whose engineering team cannot absorb the operational cost of sourcing and reputation-cleaning IPv4 space inside the org.
Registry Transfer & Documentation
Registry transfer paperwork and documentation across ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, LACNIC and AFRINIC — fitting operating models whose engineering or legal team does not maintain registry-policy expertise per region, and whose transaction risk posture demands the broker carry transfer paperwork rather than self-managing the documentation cycle.
IPv6 Transition Support
IPv4 leasing positioned as a bridge through a multi-year IPv6 transition — fitting operating models whose customer base cannot move to IPv6-only quickly, whose CDN and edge dependencies still demand IPv4 reachability, and whose engineering plan needs predictable IPv4 inventory through the transition period.
Ideal For
Service-Provider, Hosting & Cloud Operating Models with IPv4 Inventory Demand
Hosting & Service Providers
Hosting and service-provider operating models whose customer-facing IP allocation depends on clean, registered IPv4 inventory and whose engineering team cannot maintain registry-transfer or vetting capacity inside the org for ad-hoc inventory expansion.
Cloud & SaaS Networks
Cloud and SaaS operating models whose IPv4 demand is growth-bound rather than permanent, whose finance posture wants OpEx leasing rather than CapEx purchases this cycle, and whose footprint must remain reachable on IPv4 through the IPv6 transition period.
ISPs & Regional Carriers
ISPs and regional carriers whose customer base demands per-customer IPv4 allocations and whose registry strategy cannot accommodate exhaustion-cycle pricing for permanent purchase, with leasing as the bridge inventory mechanism.
Legacy IPv4 Holders Divesting
Operating models holding legacy IPv4 inventory beyond current need whose finance posture wants to monetize the asset and whose engineering team cannot run buyer vetting and registry-transfer paperwork in-house for a one-time sell-side transaction.
Why IPv4 Depot
Where IPv4 Depot Stands Out as an IPv4 Broker
Structural advantages that justify IPv4 Depot over single-registry inventory sources and unvetted secondary-market sellers.
Both leasing and buying available from the same broker — fitting operating models whose IPv4 economics depend on the lease-vs-buy decision year-over-year and whose finance posture wants to compare the OpEx and CapEx structures with one source of inventory and pricing rather than across separately operated brokers and registries.
Inventory vetted for routability and clean reputation — fitting operating models whose hosting, mail or service-provider business cannot tolerate blocklisted or hijacked space and whose engineering team cannot maintain the operational cost of vetting acquired or leased blocks before deployment.
Brokerage across ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, LACNIC and AFRINIC — fitting operating models whose footprint spans regions and whose registry strategy cannot be locked to a single registry's inventory or pricing dynamics, and whose transactions need broker-managed paperwork per registry.
Monthly OpEx leasing as an alternative to large-block CapEx purchase — fitting operating models whose CFO posture wants predictable monthly IPv4 cost rather than a one-time capital event, and whose investment cycle treats IPv4 as a recurring resource rather than a permanent asset.
