RIPE NCC Resource Certification service update
by Alex Band 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Dear colleagues, It's been one month since I sent the announcement about the RIPE NCC Resource Certification service. I would like to give you an overview of the current status. The facts by numbers: ------------------------------ LIRs who have enabled the service: 219 Number of Route Origin Authorisations they created: 170 Number of prefixes covered by these ROAs: 469 Total IPv4 space covered by ROAs in the RIPE region: 40159 /24s Total IPv6 space covered by ROAs in the RIPE region: 7340035 /48s Unique visitors to ripe.net/certification: 1564 Downloads of the RIPE NCC Validator: 117 So while 219 LIRs have enabled the service, and very diligently created a large number of ROAs to specify their routing policy, unfortunately nobody gave any feedback on any of the mailing lists. It is very important that you let your voice be heard and provide input on policy proposal 2008-08: http://ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2008-08.html Please note that version 3.0 of this proposal will be published very soon. As soon as it is available, I urge you to read it and provide feedback, because the fact that the current service not backed by a policy is not a sustainable state of affairs. Kind regards, Alex Band Product Manager, RIPE NCC http://ripe.net/certification P.S.

Proposed Implementation Plan for Policy Proposal 2010-06 in the RIPE Database
by Denis Walker 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear Colleagues, To prepare for the possible acceptance of RIPE Policy Proposal 2010-06, "Registration Requirements for IPv6 End User Assignments", the Database Group at the RIPE NCC proposes the following implementation plan. We will implement a new attribute ("assignment-size:") in INET6NUM objects, add some business logic for its use and add a new value (AGGREGATED-BY-LIR) for the "status:" attribute of an INET6NUM object. Schema and syntax changes in INET6NUM objects: - New attribute "assignment-size:" - Syntax is numeric value > 0 - INET6NUM object will include "assignment-size:" as an optional, single attribute - "assignment-size:" will not be an inverse searchable attribute - New value for the "status:" attribute of an INET6NUM object will be AGGREGATED-BY-LIR Business rules: - "assignment-size:" is optional in INET6NUM objects but required if "status:" is AGGREGATED-BY-LIR - The value of "assignment-size:" must be greater than the prefix size of the INET6NUM object containing the attribute - Parent status of INET6NUM object with status AGGREGATED-BY-LIR can be: ALLOCATED-BY-RIR ALLOCATED-BY-LIR AGGREGATED-BY-LIR - If parent status is AGGREGATED-BY-LIR, grandparent status cannot be AGGREGATED-BY-LIR - If an object has the status AGGREGATED-BY-LIR, a more specific object can only have the status AGGREGATED-BY-LIR (subject to the aforementioned constraints) We will prepare implementation of this plan during the week commencing 31 January 2011. It will be deployed during the week commencing 7 February 2011 should RIPE Policy Proposal 2010-06 be formally approved. Regards, Denis Walker Business Analyst RIPE NCC Database Group
