Hi there, is the following supported? export: to AS54321 announce AS12345 export: to AS54321 action aspath.prepend (AS12345, AS12345); announce AS12345:AS-BACKUPDOWN We try to use rtconfig to generate filter lists, but only the first export line is used. Is this a bug or are multiple export lines not supported by rpsl?

We're using Northstar overhere : http://www.brownkid.net/NorthStar/ Looks simple but it's usefull enough for us... The site your referring to seems indeed to have become a mp3 downloadsite??

I noticed on the RIPE site earlier discussions on a free ipdb tool which was supposed to be available through Global Crossing through the URL: http://www.freeipdb.org This URL gives me no joy however, is this all a joke? And has anyone good recommendations for an IP Management tool to handle the stockcontrol, allocations and assignments of Ipv4 and Ipv6 addresses for a telecoms company? We have been having no end of solutions presented to us which each just didn't quite do what promised :( Anybody out there with good experiences with any tool? Kind regards, Berthy van der Jagt KPN The Netherlands

We use an IP address management tool based on the RIPE Whois server software. One of its main advantages is that is synchronises the assignments with e.g. the official RIPE Whois repository, and sure it can handle your mentioned stock control, allocations and assignments. A presentation I hold at ripe-50 can be found here, however we've added some more functions and IPv6 support in meanwhile: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-50/presentations/ripe50-plenary-mon-… An up-to-date introduction will be held at the APRICOT meeting end of February in Bali, I'm sure the slides will be online then as well. If you're interested, I can give you more information off-list.
