[ncc-announce] Launch of RIPE NCC LIR Locator
by Kaveh Ranjbar 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Dear Colleagues, We have introduced a new service, the LIR Locator: https://lirportal.ripe.net/maps/locator/ This new service is an extension of the existing list of RIPE NCC members: https://www.ripe.net/membership/indices/ and the RIPE NCC's service region map: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/member-support/info/list-of-members In addition to clearly indicating those RIPE NCC members with an IPv6 RIPEness score of four, this new service marks the geographical location of members on a Google map. This service is accessible to the public and enables users to see the concentration of RIPE NCC members in cities and countries. RIPE NCC members can log in to to their LIR Portal account and either confirm the geo-location that we have determined for your registry's address from your public records or change it to any location within your registered country. More details about this service and future plans for it will be published on RIPE Labs shortly. Regards, Kaveh Ranjbar - Business Applications Product Owner Senior Software Engineer RIPE NCC

[ncc-announce] IPv4 Exhaustion: RIPE NCC Update
by Axel Pawlik 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

Dear colleagues, The IANA IPv4 free pool was exhausted today, 3 February 2011. Each of the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) has now received one of the final five /8s. The RIPE NCC has been allocated 185/8. The RIPE NCC is holding reserves totaling approximately four /8s (around 75 million individual IPv4 addresses), not including 185/8. We will continue to distribute IPv4 addresses from our reserves according to the current policy, ripe-509, "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region": http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-509.html When our reserves are exhausted, we will begin to distribute IPv4 addresses from 185/8 according to section 5.6 of ripe-509: http://ripe.net/ripe/docs/ipv4-policies.html#----use-of-last----for-pa-allo… This policy states that each Local Internet Registry (LIR) will receive one /22 (1024 IPv4 addresses) from 185/8 upon application for IPv4 resources. In order to obtain this /22 allocation, the LIR must already have requested an IPv6 allocation. For more information about how to deploy IPv6, please see: http://www.ipv6actnow.org As we unable to anticipate consumption rates, we cannot fully predict how long our reserves will last. However, we would like to reassure you that our supplies will not be exhausted within the coming months. Our Registration Services Department has seen an increase in the number of IPv4 requests in the last few days and is working hard to evaluate all requests. We ask for your patience during this busy period. Regards, Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC

[ncc-announce] Mark Your Calendar: RIPE NCC Regional Meeting/Eurasia Network Operators' Group (ENOG)
by Paul Rendek 20 Jan '11

20 Jan '11

Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC Regional Meeting/Eurasia Network Operators' Group (ENOG) will take place in Moscow from 6-8 June 2011. This will be the first ever combined RIPE NCC Regional Meeting/ENOG Meeting. We are also happy to announce that a second meeting is to be scheduled for later this year. At the Moscow RIPE NCC Regional Meeting in September 2010, attendees decided to further their cooperation by proposing the creation of a regional forum in which the region’s Internet experts could collaborate on issues unique to the Russian Federation, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), Eastern Europe and other interested parties. This forum is now established as ENOG, and the RIPE NCC is dedicated to actively support and facilitate this newly formed operators' group. The RIPE NCC Regional Meeting/ENOG is a forum for open dialogue, and it's available for all interested parties to attend. This is where network operators can meet their peers and learn from international and local Internet experts. Operational content will be a central part of the agenda. Topics will cover challenges, tools, experiences and best practices in areas such as DNS, peering, routing, IPv6 and more. For the first time at a RIPE NCC Regional Meeting, a day will be dedicated to RIPE activities, where RIPE Policies will be presented and openly discussed. We're already looking forward to an exciting and productive meeting. We're very much looking forward to welcoming you to participate at the meeting in Moscow in June, together making this another successful event. Regards, Paul Rendek Head of External Relations and Communications RIPE NCC on behalf of the RIPE NCC Regional Meeting/ENOG Organising Committee

[ncc-announce] RIPE NCC Resource Certification Service Launch
by Alex Band 03 Jan '11

03 Jan '11

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC is proud to announce the production launch of the RIPE NCC resource certification service. With the support of the RIPE community, we have worked very hard to create a service that will help to make our registry more robust and provide a vital element in making Internet routing more secure. Now, more than ever, it is important to be sure who is the legitimate holder of a block of IP addresses. As a first step, the RIPE NCC (in coordination with the other four RIRs) has created a hosted platform. This means that all LIRs will be able to generate a certificate of holdership that will be held in a repository maintained by the RIPE NCC. The feature set is, as it stands, very limited: the certificate will only cover Provider Aggregatable address space, and it is not yet possible to run your own Certificate Authority or generate "child" certificates to create a chain of trust. All of these capabilities will be rolled out over the course of 2011, based on the wishes and input of the RIPE community. This brings me to an important point. While the technology is now in place, the policy describing the details of the certification system has not yet passed the RIPE Policy Development Process. We have decided, however, to launch the system with the most limited feature set possible, so that the membership can try it out. Our hope is that this will make resource certification more tangible, and assist the community in making an informed decision about what the system should offer, now and in the future. I invite and encourage you to discuss this on the RIPE NCC Services Working Group mailing list: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/wg/ncc-services/index.html Ongoing development of the RIPE NCC certification service will, of course, be planned in accordance with the certification policy that is agreed on by the RIPE community. For more information, please visit: http://ripe.net/certification If you have any questions or comments, please email <certification(a)ripe.net >. Best regards, Alex Band Product Manager, RIPE NCC
