Dear colleagues,

On Wednesday 15 January, we'll be moving on to the final phase of removing our secondary DNS service for LIRs (ns.ripe.net) and updating all associated objects in the RIPE Database. This update will remove the "nserver: ns.ripe.net" attribute from them.

I am happy to report that 93% of the zones have been updated and stopped using ns.ripe.net as a secondary name server. The remaining zones that have not been updated will not be affected because they will have at least one working name server after this update. Therefore, we do not expect the DNS resolution of these zones to fail.  

The full sunsetting plan, published last year, is available on RIPE Labs:

Anand Buddhdev
