New IPv4 blocks allocated to RIPE NCC
by leo vegoda 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

[Apologies for duplicate mails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC received the IPv4 address ranges 77.0.0.0/8 and 78.0.0.0/7 from the IANA in August 2006. We will begin allocating from these ranges in the near future. The minimum allocation size for these four /8s has been set at /21. You may wish to adjust any filters you have in place accordingly. More information on the IP space administered by the RIPE NCC can be found on our web site at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-ncc-managed-address-space.html Additionally, please note that two "pilot" prefixes are being announced from each /8. Details of the prefixes, 'pingable' target names and addresses for each prefix can be found on our web site at: http://www.ris.ripe.net/debogon/debogon.html Best regards, -- leo vegoda Registration Services Manager RIPE NCC

RE: [address-policy-wg] RE: [policy-announce] 2006-04 New Policy Proposal (Contact e-mail Address Requirements)
by Koepp, Karsten 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

Hi Michele, I also support the goal of the proposal although I believe it will be hard to enforce. > Several ISPs maintain abuse email addresses, but when you submit abuse > reports to the supplied address they send an auto-responder > forcing you to > resubmit the data via a web form. > Think the other way around. 99% of your abuse inbox is spam itself. And people just forward spam to abuse contacts to complain. How can you make sure serious mails are being detected within the junk. A web form is just a measure to make sure abuse complaints reach people and are being dealt with. It is not overdemanded to fill in a form if you ask someone to spend working time solving your problem. YMMV. regards Karsten > What is the RIPE policy on this? > > Surely ISPs should not be making it hard for users / admins > etc., to report > abuse to them > > Regards > > Michele > > > Michele > http://www.mneylon.com/blog/ > http://www.searchenginecookbook.com/ > http://www.irishblogs.info - top Irish blogs/bloggers >

Re: [address-policy-wg] Proposal for change to the IPv4 PI allocation policy
by Max Tulyev 28 Aug '06

Hi, I warn all my clients that PI (and any kind of their own) address space and/or AS is also a great responsibility. And they sure need a more qualified system administrator to rule it. If client asks for a help ("the Internet doesn't work") and rejects in help with doing some tests from its side - I say I can't help you in that case, goodbye. It is true as well for PI as for PA.

Re: [policy-announce] 2006-04 New Policy Proposal (Contact e-mail Address Requirements)
by Jeff Scribner 25 Aug '06

25 Aug '06

Michele, The original proposal provided for enforcement. That part was removed because it crosses into another area of responsibility. However, if the proposal is adopted and then violated, another proposal could be made providing for enforcement. At least that is my understanding of the situation. You might note that I made this proposal because our security department was running into e-mail addresses that didn't work, were missing or directed one to a web site. All of these results dramatically increase the time required to report abuse of an IP address. If the proposal is adopted, I think there will be a lot of people and organizations interested in enforcement.

Re: [policy-announce] 2006-04 New Policy Proposal (Contact e-mail Address Requirements)
by Jeff Scribner 25 Aug '06

Michele, The proposal as written should cover this. The requirement is for a working e-mail address that will accept messages - not one that will direct you to a web site. Regards, Jeff From: Michele To: filiz(a)ripe.net ; address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net Cc: 'Jeffrey L. Scribner' ; 'Hans Petter Holen' Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2006 08:32 Subject: RE: [policy-announce] 2006-04 New Policy Proposal (Contact e-mail Address Requirements) One question I have about this: "Every organisation controlling an IP address should provide at least one working contact e-mail address where notifications of abuse emanating from that IP address can be sent." Several ISPs maintain abuse email addresses, but when you submit abuse reports to the supplied address they send an auto-responder forcing you to resubmit the data via a web form. What is the RIPE policy on this? Surely ISPs should not be making it hard for users / admins etc., to report abuse to them Regards Michele Michele http://www.mneylon.com/blog/ http://www.searchenginecookbook.com/ http://www.irishblogs.info - top Irish blogs/bloggers

2005-02 Last Call for Comments (IP Assignments for Anycasting DNS)
by Filiz Yilmaz 23 Aug '06

23 Aug '06

PDP Number: 2005-02 IP Assignments for anycasting DNS Dear Colleagues The proposal described in 2005-02 is now in its Concluding Phase. You can find the full proposal at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2005-2.html During the review phase, we received feedback that suggested improvements to the text: - The resulting policy text should explicitly state that it is for ccTLDs and gTLDs - The text should explicitly state that the RIPE NCC will make assignments directly when a request is submitted through an existing LIR. We have incorporated this in the draft documents that you can find at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/2005-02-draft.html http://www.ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/2005-02-v6-draft.html Please e-mail any final comments about this proposal to address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net before 18 September 2006. If we receive no objections, we will publish the new policy after this date. Regards Filiz Yilmaz RIPE NCC Policy Development Officer
