Calculate costs, break-even, and return on investment of buying IPv4 compared to leasing IPv4 based on today’s average prices. Determine your annual savings after reaching your break-even point.
The break-even demonstrates the amount of time it will take for the cost of leasing IP addresses to outpace a one-time purchase of an IPv4 block.
For instance, a /20 (4,096 IPs) would only take 4.17 years to pay for itself. Based on an annual lease cost of $34,406, you would save $97,370 on a 7-year lease.
While leasing IPv4 can be preferable for short-term needs, there might be some issues to consider.
Once you are with the provider, you are tied to them, therefore carrier portability creates more risk for your network.
Also, if the company from which you are leasing IPs is acquired or goes out of business, it can cause usage security issues.
