We've never had an issue requesting a 2-byte ASN from ARIN.  Our last
request was, maybe, a month ago.

Hi,

if I check this site it shouldn't be problem to purchase a 2Byte ASN.
https://auctions.ipv4.global/
The ASN are at the end, but it seems that there are some available.

Is there any reason you need to use your AS in the route target instead
of using a private 2 Byte AS Number for the route target?

Kind regards
Karsten

Yes, at $work we obtained one recently (without hassle, thank you ARIN
hostmasters!).

So, I recommend to follow normal procedure and just ask ARIN. :-)

Kind regards,

Job

Can you describe this a bit more? I'd like to add it to my list of stuff
broken on mikrotik.

We have received 2-byte ASN from LACNIC last year no issues there

Hi all,

There is no problem obtaining a 2 byte ASN from ARIN as long as you provide the technical justification requested per the community’s policy.

Thank
