RIPE NCC Begins to Allocate IPv4 Address Space From the Last /8
by Axel Pawlik 14 Sep '12

14 Sep '12

Dear colleagues, On Friday, 14 September 2012, the RIPE NCC, the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) for Europe, the Middle East and parts of Central Asia, distributed the last blocks of IPv4 address space from the available pool. This means that we are now distributing IPv4 address space to Local Internet Registries (LIRs) from the last /8 according to section 5.6 of "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region". This section states that an LIR may receive one /22 allocation (1,024 IPv4 addresses), even if they can justify a larger allocation. This /22 allocation will only be made to LIRs if they have already received an IPv6 allocation from an upstream LIR or the RIPE NCC. No new IPv4 Provider Independent (PI) space will be assigned. This policy can be found online at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-553 Those members with open requests for IPv4 address space will shortly receive an email regarding the status of their requests. It is now imperative that all stakeholders deploy IPv6 on their networks to ensure the continuity of their online operations and the future growth of the Internet. Regards, Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC More Information ----------------- For more information on IPv6 and its deployment, advice from experts and where to get training, please see: http://www.ipv6actnow.org/ For more information on reaching the last /8, please see: https://www.ripe.net/internet-coordination/ipv4-exhaustion

RIPE NCC has Approximately Four Million IPv4 Addresses Before Reaching Last /8
by Axel Pawlik 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC has now entered phase one of its approach to reaching the last /8. This means that: - As of Tuesday, 4 September, we have approximately one month (or a /10) worth of IPv4 address space (4,134,976 addresses) to distribute before we reach the last /8. - Our IPRAs are now working in pairs to ensure that all requests are dealt with efficiently and to further ensure fairness, consistency and transparency. This means that our response times may be longer than you have previously experienced. You can find the response times for requests for IPv4 address space at: http://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/tools-for-lirs/reponse… - Our "call back procedure" has changed. We will now call requestors about their ticket only when their ticket is at the front of the request queue. This will ensure that no ticket is handled outside of the order it was received in. - Depending on the availability in the RIPE NCC’s free pool of IPv4 address space, you may receive multiple smaller prefixes that add up to the size of your request. - The quarantine period in place for returned IPv4 address space before it can be re-used will be gradually decreased. In the last days before we reach the last /8, the quarantine period may be reduced to one week or less. This will ensure that there is no IPv4 address space left in the quarantine pool when we start to allocate from the last /8. More information about quarantine periods can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/quarantine-for-return… - The Available IPv4 Pool Graph will be updated daily as of Wednesday, 5 September. You can find this graph online at: http://www.ripe.net/internet-coordination/ipv4-exhaustion/ipv4-available-po… More information about reaching the last /8 can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/internet-coordination/ipv4-exhaustion/last-8-phases ================================================== Important Billing Information for RIPE NCC Members ================================================== If you have had an outstanding invoice for 60 days or more, we cannot approve any requests for Internet number resources until the outstanding amount has been paid. For more details about billing, please see: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/member-support/info/billing/billing-proce… Regards, Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC

hello, the RIPE Programme Committee are responsible for recruiting and selecting presentations for the plenary of RIPE meetings. we are expanding our membership by four additional members to be elected by the community at RIPE65 in Amsterdam, and we have updated the documentation here: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-meetings/pc/composition-and-roles the PC has been functioning well since our formation, but we have found ourselves short-staffed in several ways. we lack representation from several important RIPE communities right now, we do not have a wide range of expertise and experience, and we are reduced to a very small number of people in the case of any PC members taking vacation or otherwise unable to attend PC calls or follow up on speaker requests. please consider standing for a PC position in AMS or nominating a colleague who you believe would be effective in the role. questions to me or to pc(a)ripe.net. cheers, t -- Todd Underwood, for the Programme Committee tmu(a)google.com
