Registration Services Procedure - Now Online
by Alex le Heux 31 Mar '11

31 Mar '11

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC has published a Registration Services Procedure to help guide our members through the process of submitting an IPv4 address space request. The document can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/contact/registration-p… The aim is to inform LIRs about what is expected from them during an evaluation and what kind of information the IP Resource Analyst (IPRA) is looking for. This document covers the most common types of requests that reflect the business models and technology deployments in the RIPE NCC service region. If the document is considered useful by the RIPE NCC membership, the RIPE NCC will produce the same documentation for IPv6 and aut-num requests. Best regards, Alex Le Heux RIPE NCC

Deletion of Forward DOMAIN data from the RIPE Database
by Denis Walker 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC is ready for the next stage of this clean-up process, as discussed at the last few RIPE Meetings. The RIPE Database still contains many forward DOMAIN objects, listed below. Only four TLD Registries are still actively using the RIPE Database for their whole provisioning or for a second-level dataset, .SM, .MC, .NO, .IL. These four Registries are working on alternative solutions and their data will remain in the RIPE Database until their arrangements are complete. Looking at the update logs for the last year, there has been very little activity on all the other DOMAIN data (summarised below). The occasional updates are End Users who maintain their own DOMAIN objects. Even though the activity logs show that these Registries were not actively using the RIPE Database, we still contacted them for confirmation. In some cases, we received no response. The RIPE NCC will delete all the forward DOMAIN data (except for the four active users) in the week beginning Monday, 4 April 2011.

GRS updates for the RIPE Database
by Agoston Horvath 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce that we've deployed a revamped Global Resource Service (GRS) in the RIPE Database today, 21 March 2011. Please take note of the following changes: - All foreign (non-RIPE) sources have '-GRS' added to their name. Old names without '-GRS' will work for one year for backwards compatibility. You are kindly asked to adjust your environment as necessary within that time-frame. - A short-hand format has been added to the '-s GRS' to make it easier to select all GRS sources. - Queries against GRS sources don't filter returned data, nor is any accounting in place. - 'RIPE-GRS' has been added as a GRS version of our own database and includes the changes noted above. For more information on GRS, see: http://labs.ripe.net/Members/Paul_P_/ripe-registry-global-resource-service Regards, Agoston Horvath Database Group RIPE NCC

Closure of LIR and Deregistration of Internet Number Resources
by Axel Pawlik 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC, after receiving feedback from the RIPE community on the draft version, has published the procedural RIPE Document ripe-517, "Closure of LIR and Deregistration of Internet Number Resources". The document is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-517 This document replaces sections in two RIPE Documents that deal with the closure of LIRs and the deregistration of resources: - Sections 3.0 and 4.0 of ripe-301, "Mergers, Acquisitions, Takeovers and Closures of Organisations Operating an LIR". These sections are entitled "Closing an LIR" and "When an LIR is Closed by the RIPE NCC", respectively. The updated version of this RIPE Document is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-515 - Sections 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2 of ripe-475, "Independent Internet Number Resources - Contractual Relationship Changes between sponsoring LIR and End User". These sections are entitled “De-registering of Independent Internet Number Resources”, “Closure of Sponsoring LIR” and "Violation of RIPE Policy, Law or Contract", respectively. The updated version of this RIPE Document is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-516 The RIPE NCC would like to thank the RIPE community for its feedback. An interactive chart that helps to explain the process of closure of LIRs and deregistration of Internet number resources will be available shortly. Best regards, Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC

documentation about the minimum allocation/assignment sizes for v4 and v6 across the RIRs
by Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

I got a request from one of our customers, regarding documentation of the minimum allocation and assignment sizes of the various IPv4 and IPv6 address blocks. The initial cause of the research was creating filters that reasonably allow IPv6 PI prefices (which are longer than /35 or /32). I found the relevant info for the RIPE NCC's Service Region in http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-510 Now I am wondering - does anyone have a list of URLs or pointers to docs for the other 4 RIRs, which would provide similar information? As an aside, it would be nice to have such information accessible in one place, maybe by way of the NRO's website :-) TIA, Wilfried.
