Getting 'responsible organization' out of RDAP
I've been attempting to use RDAP to verify our customer's IP information, however I'm running into some difficulties due to differences between ARIN's implementation and RIPE's. For example, I'm trying to get the organization name for a particular IP. On ARIN, this is easy. I look through the provided vcards for one where the kind is 'org', and that gives me the information about the organization. (ex: https://rdap.arin.net/registry/ip/66.55.158.27 ) With RIPE's RDAP implementation, this data does not seem to be readily available. For example, if I look at https://rdap.db.ripe.net/ip/195.66.225.160 I'd expect to find the string 'London Internet Exchange Ltd.' somewhere within the response. If I look at the web UI: https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/#/query?searchtext=195.66.225.160#results... , this information is easily available. Would it be possible to expand the RDAP results to include organization information? This seems like it would just be another vcard entry, so there really shouldn't be any backwards compatibility issues. Apologies if this isn't the correct list, I can't really find any information about RDAP on RIPE's website.
On the github repo[0] they have a small snippet about it. "An org: reference from an inetnum,inet6num,autnum resource is not included in the query response. By contrast, ARIN returns the org reference as a "registrant" entity." As I understand it. RIPE NCC has done an active choice in NOT doing the RDAP implementation similar to ARIN.

Dear all, There are known differences between the RIR implementations of RDAP. In some cases we will need to make extended RDAP specifications, e.g. a resource can have multiple countries in the RIPE region. The RIRs are working together to make an inventory of these differences, and based on that we will plan future work. Kind regards Tim Bruijnzeels Assistant Manager Software Engineering RIPE NCC

Dear Tim, Do you expect to be able to do unreliable guesswork about when a "future plan" could be approximately ready ? (Fx. Q3-Q4 2019/Around RIPE78) Cheers Christoffer Hansen "You might think that your government is vigilant when it comes to securing your personal information, or that of your children. You would be wrong." - Jake Tapper, CNN Chief Washington Correspondent On 20-03-2018 17:28, Tim Bruijnzeels wrote:

Dear Christoffer, End of 2018 sounds reasonable, but I cannot promise. The main thing here is that we want to ensure that we have achieved alignment with the other RIRs before making ad-hoc changes that would need to be re-addressed. Also, the specification of extension may take some time. We are all committed to doing this, but it’s not entirely clear how long this will take. Once we have the alignment we still need to plan the work in relation to other priorities, but we don’t expect that this will be a huge change to our implementation.

Is this happening in public somewhere I can follow? Is there any way I can actually get the org name out of RDAP right now?

Dear Brian, Getting the ORG object itself looks like to NOT be possible with the current RIPE NCC implementation. Roles can be fetches with RDAP. Fx https://rdap.db.ripe.net/entity/AR17761-RIPE Using the github repo as reference[0] I think you will need to look for other ways instead of RDAP for fetching org info from the RIPE NCC database. If you can do with ONLY fetching roles. It is possible with RDAP. [0]: https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/whois/blob/master/whois-api/src/main/java/net/ri...

There is currently no public forum covering this topic, but this is a good suggestion. I am investigating how to accomplish this and will reply when I have an answer. Kind regards Tim Bruijnzeels
