Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Dedicated Server : Looking for dedicated providers in US supporting ARIN registration for customers

[awww]

We just need 2 things:

1) ARIN registration of a single ip address or a small subnet
2) Recovery session with network support in order to install our images

Any suggestions?
Thanks

1) I think it is a required by all ARIN members to follow. So most providers who are ARIN members will do this for you, by default.

2) Larger providers who use provisioning automation should be able to provide you with this functionality. But I think, this will is available only for Linux?

Only provider in the US that I know of which offers both of these features is SoftLayer.

1) Do you mean SWIP your assigned IP block?
2) I assume that KVMIP with remote image mounting would be sufficient for what you mean?

1) Yes
2) Basically a KVMoIP or just a ssh recovery session with network support and partimage

We just checked Softlayer but it doesn't seem to support these features.

Thanks

For 2), you can just use a motherboard with IPMI, connected to a separate, dedicated, network port. It's a little more cabling hassle, and the motherboard costs maybe $50 more than a comparable motherboard without IPMI, but it's certainly not rocket science.

These are relatively simple requirements, you should find a solution at most any provider who offers the more 'advanced' feature-sets.
Softlayer would work, but the KVMIP is only available to/from the private network so you wouldn't be able to remote mount an image unless you uploaded it to their lockbox thing. You could also try and request to have your IPMI configuring to a public IP if they allow that so it can access the internet on its own.

Of course you have other options past Softlayer with providers who offer similar features.
