Hello Peter,
For the DNS, RFC 2606 (BCP 32) has set aside several top level and second level domain names and the network 192.0.2/24 has been dedicated for documentation and test purposes by the IANA in the past (see RFC 3330).
I am curious why the RIPE NCC is asked for this /24. If IANA has provided 192.0.2/24 in the past, why can't IANA provide another /24? It would require an RFC, but isn't that the right place to do this? Just trying to get all the background information :) Sander
