Under both Radius and TACACS, which are the auth protocols supported by
all decent access servers, including Cisco, you'd need to setup a
user-profile for the user that needs a fixed-IP - but only _those_
specific users, not the entire userbase. Under Radius, it's trivial:
-----
MyUser Password "MyPassword"
User-Service-Type = Framed-User,
Framed-Protocol = PPP,
Framed-Address = 190.212.121.92, # < Random number.
Framed-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,
Framed-Routing = None,
Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP,
Framed-Filter-Id = "std.ppp.in",
Framed-MTU = 1500

...and then you have a default entry that uses the IP pool defined on the
machine.
The justification for charging a huge amount of money for an IP address is
that soon IP addresses may become rare.
Bye,
-Yaron.
