Display issues with applications that use encrypted connections (https)
by RIPE NCC Web Services 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

[Apologies for duplicates] Dear members, It has come to our attention that some users experienced graphical and functional problems when attempting to use services like the LIR Portal that are now available through SSL encryption (https). We tracked these issues and found that some combinations of operating systems and browsers (for example Safari in MacOS X versions previous to 10.6.6 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 or below) did not recognize our certificate as valid. Our engineers worked to correct the problem and it is now fixed. We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused and please let us know if you encounter other issues. Sincerely, -- Mihnea-Costin Grigore RIPE NCC Web Developer - http://www.ripe.net/

[members-discuss] [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 ---- If you don't want to receive mails from the RIPE NCC Members Discuss list, please log in to your LIR Portal account at: http://lirportal.ripe.net/ First click on General and then click on Edit.

[members-discuss] [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.

[Apologies for any duplication if you've seen this notification on other lists.] We've just posted the 2010 Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report for download at this URL: <http://www.arbornetworks.com/report> This year's WWISR contains responses and data from the broadest cross-section of SPs to date, including mobile operators and IDC operators in all major geographical regions. The WWISR is based upon input from the global operational community, and as such, is unique in its focus on the operational security aspects of public-facing networks. Many of you contributed to the survey which forms the foundation of the report; as always, we're grateful for your insight and participation, and welcome your feedback and comments.

IANA Allocates Two /8s of IPv4 Space to APNIC
by Axel Pawlik 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear colleagues, On 1 February 2011, the IANA allocated two /8s of IPv4 address space to APNIC, the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) for the Asia Pacific region. This means that only five /8s of IPv4 address space are left in the IANA free pool and the "Global Policy for the Allocation of the Remaining IPv4 Address Space" will be triggered. This policy can be found online at: http://www.icann.org/en/general/allocation-remaining-ipv4-space.htm When this policy comes into effect, the five RIRs will each receive one of the five remaining /8s and the global IPv4 pool will be exhausted. We expect IANA to allocate these final /8s within the next few days. For further information please see: http://www.ripe.net/v4exhaustion/ Regards, Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC
