IP addresses currently used by organizations are likely to undergo
changes in the near to moderate term.  Change can become necessary for
a variety of reasons, including enterprise reorganization, physical
moves of equipment, new strategic relationships, changes in Internet
Service Providers (ISP), new applications, and the needs of global
Internet connectivity.  Good IP address management may in general
simplify continuing system administration; a good renumbering plan is
also a good numbering plan.  Most actions taken to ease future
renumbering will ease routine network administration.
