ANN: Web141, the RIPE 141 syntax checking web page
Hi, As announced at the Local IR Working Group at the 32nd RIPE Meeting on 27/1/1999, the RIPE NCC European IP Address Space Request Syntax Checking web page, Web 141, is now functioning. The URL is: http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/web141/web141.pl.cgi Please note that it is only for formatting and syntax checking requests - you must send the request in an email to hostmaster@ripe.net for any action to be taken with it. You can fill in your RIPE 141 format address request in the boxes provided and merely convert the request to correctly formatted plain text suitable for pasting into an email, or you can also have the autohm program check the syntax of your request. This is the same program that checks RIPE 141 requests sent to hostmaster@ripe.net, so if you pass these checks you can be sure you will not fail the syntax checks there. However please note that other checks are performed before you are given what you are requesting, and your request may still fail these checks. The simple source of the web page generator and plain text converter ( using Perl5 and CGI.pm ) will be made available in two weeks, and autohm, the syntax checking tool also written in Perl 5, will be made available in four weeks. Please let the lir-wg list know if you have any comments on the web page or the checks that are done. Cheers, Maldwyn Morris Software Manager RIPE NCC
Looking at the web page, it seems that every time we want to fill in a new request the #[CURRENT ADDRESS SPACE USAGE TEMPLATE]# must be filled in as well one by one, a time consuming task especially for those LIRs who manage a large address space. Is this what it is or Am I missing something here? Regards, Yiannos Pitas, University of Cyprus Maldwyn Morris wrote:

Just two comments on the new form. After i filled all the entries and created the text output i've noticed on the #[PERSON TEMPLATE]# i get an empty phone: even though i've completed all the filelds. I understand that this page is just for checks, and that it uses the same checks with the robot, but is it possible on the person template to put a button so that if the person has a template, we just put the nic handle, press the button and all the rest of the fields are filled automatigically. Cheers Themis
