The Board discussed IP space needs from ARIN related to FL-IX and thanked Randy for taking care of the merger of ARIN assets into the proper Community IX entity. Setting the topic of additional IP space aside as it’s not super critical at this

Discussion was had regarding the Arista maintenance contract renewal quote and verifying what equipment is still in use or retired. Ryan will provide an update to our Arista sales rep.
