The RIPE Database keeps information about resources in the RIPE NCC service region, as well as routing registry records. The RIPE NCC does not maintain information about resources managed by other RIRs.
Well, but if I'm not totally mistaken, RIPE DB contained referrals for /8s of other RIRs until recently. Am I wrong in this memory?
One of our engineers here points out that maybe you are talking about the other sources that we mirror in the Database. You can query all sources that we mirror via the "-a" flag on a query: $ whois -a 204/8 You can also query only ARIN, by the "-s" flag: $ whois -s arin 204/8 Finally, you can see all the sources we mirror by using "-q sources": $ whois -q sources -- Shane Kerr RIPE NCC p.s. Thanks for the observation, Can!
