While Dan is right, in most cases you want to get IP numbers from your ISP
instead of getting them yourself. Unless you're pretty large and need a
large block of IP addresses it is way more trouble than it's worth. [I'm a
pretty strong advocate of setting up virtual private networks and using
network address translation, to mitigate the need for IPs among other
benefits].The information, including the forms to submit, on how to get IP
addresses is available by a careful reading of web pages at
