   Hi,   
   If a new ISP starts up,it has to be allocated IP addresses, right? What does   
   this mean? What exactly is this step of "allocating", and who does it?   
      
   How and when does that address become routable to? I'm no expert on internet   
   routing, but it's based on graph theory, right?   
      
      
   Thanks.
