Hi Henk,
I want to send a mail about the pilot prefix announcements from the new IPv4 we're requesting. Before I get Comms to review the style, I'd be grateful if you could review the content for me. In particular, I'm concerned regarding the phrase "reachability tools". As far as I can tell, neither the 'ping' nor 'traceroute' tools on http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/debogon.cgi actually work. Can you let me know if that's right, and if so, what the schedule to fix them is?
Thanks,
-leo
Dear Colleagues,
This announcement is being sent to multiple lists. I apologise for duplicates.
The RIPE NCC received the IPv4 address range [insert] from the IANA in June 2005.
We expect to start making allocations from them within the next few weeks.
We have started announcing two prefixes from each /8, which originate in AS12654.
[insert list of prefixes]
Details of the BGP announcements, reachability tools and other information are available on our web site at:
http://www.ris.ripe.net/debogon/debogon.html
You may want to update any filters you have in place.
Kind regards,
