Hi
We have lots of registries, as we've needed different CIDR blocks to put in different ASNs (most others seem to just break PA space if they want to do this)
We own AS5378 - original INS backbone AS6660 - INS USA network AS6765 - Wisper network (recently aquired) AS6889 - Wisper USA network (recently aquired)
What we have as a result is 3 RIPE registries, and 1 ARIN one. AS6889 doesnt originate anything, but uses space announced in AS6765 - which of course causes problems for them - we will either get another ARIN registry or migrate 6889 out totally.
Hi Richard! We run into the same scenario: We own AS5409 - primary AS IPF.NET AS8543 - IPF.NET Spain AS8578 - IPF.NET UK Currently we use AS5409 for our borders. But the question arises, who will be responsible if we got customers in other countries (e.g. USA). Shall we assign then RIPE allocated address space (as we currently do for Spain and UK) or request ARIN Space with a different AS for USA ? Also, as we run under de.ipf, which is not sufficient, as our company grows, shall we switch to eu.ipf or use for each country a different lir ? The Ripe Documents didn't cover this scenario AFAIK...
