Dear all, at the recent RIPE 68 meeting there was a discussion about issues concerning the re-issue of recovered 16-bit ASNs by the RIPE NCC and possible modifications to the content of routing-related attributes in RIPE Database objects, namely the routing policy attributes of autnum and as-set objects.
The observed consensus during the meeting was that:
- the RIPE NCC should not to remove references to recovered ASNs from import and export lines, and neither from as-set objects; routing policies are the realm of the object owner and are not related to allocation data. - the RIPE NCC will inform the maintainer of the object containing the obsolete reference about this reference. The RIPE NCC will also offer support to the maintainer to delete the reference; - the RIPE NCC will start re-assigning referenced AS numbers once the unreferenced pool of 16-bit AS numbers has been exhausted.
We would like to close the issue and be able to provide clear guidance to the RIPE NCC so we would like to get confirmation for this outcome also from the working group mailing lists. This is not a policy issue: the re-allocation of recovered ASNs was dealt with by the APWG, the current issue is related to alterations to RIPE Database objects that reference the resources subject to re-allocation. We propose a 15 day comment period, ending June 24th 2014.
