Re: [members-discuss] [ncc-announce] [news] 168th RIPE NCC Executive Board Meeting - Summary Notes
by Kaj Niemi 25 Oct '23

25 Oct '23

Hi, Thanks for a comprehensive report as always. They are interesting to read. Do you think it would be useful to share the PESTEL analysis (slides and/or report, I assume) with the membership? At least I am curious about the factors NCC itself thinks affect it. Regarding "bigger investment portfolios yield better returns" - I do not think that is how it works.. perhaps something else was originally intended to be written? In terms of return, higher expected returns should equal willingness to accept higher volatility (risk) in relative terms. The portfolio size itself only amplifies the return, whether positive or negative.

About "route" objects and BGP announce
by ANTONETTI Gilles 04 Sep '23

04 Sep '23

Dear list, We are LIR for an organization (org1) and managing their class B. 3 AS are announcing /24 routes on this class B. We own the /16 route object. "mnt-routes" is set for org2 for a route R "mnt-routes" nothing declared for org3 I declared the ROA for org1, org2, org3. What seems strange to me is that org3 announces route R. And it works fine. Is that normal ? Regards, Gilles
