Why LARUS
Look beyond the address. Look at the rights behind it.
Buying IPv4 does not remove the registry relationship your business depends on. A low rental price does not tell you who can stand behind your addresses. LARUS brings a documented rights foundation together with direct leasing and ongoing operations.
- A shareholder-rights foundation
- The 11 June 2025 court order recognises Cloud Innovation’s shareholder rights in AFRINIC. That is the rights foundation behind the Cloud Innovation address estate operated through LARUS.
- An exclusive mandate to operate
- Cloud Innovation appoints LARUS as the exclusive customer-facing commercial, operational and technical platform for the IPv4 estate covered by its mandate. You work directly with the team appointed to deliver and support it.
- Continuity for your business
- LARUS IPv4 combines direct leasing with the operations that keep addresses useful. Choose the Continuity level your business needs, including Guaranteed Renewal with Continuity Critical.
From address to active service
The team behind your IPv4, every day.
Your customers need a working network. Our job is to make IPv4 serve it—from the first deployment to the next stage of growth.
Capacity for your next move
Lease IPv4 directly for ISP, hosting, cloud and carrier deployments. Build around the quantity and region your network needs.
Less work between you and deployment
Bring allocation, routing coordination, RPKI, rDNS and geolocation together with address lifecycle management and network integration.
Registry work, handled by an experienced team
Draw on registry procedures, documentation and coordination across all five RIR ecosystems.
Support after activation
Keep an operating team within reach for support, abuse and reputation handling, and renewal workflows. IPv4 is an ongoing service, not a handover and goodbye.
