Dear Folks, apologies if this has been discussed before or is considered not being relevant to most of you but if I do a query like below, the main difference (beside the new RPSL-look-and-feel of course) is that the as-block: object is shown AND that there is one space missing as a separator between field-descriptors and the content of the field compared to all other objects. Again, this might be irrelevant to most of you that do /(\S+)\s+(.*)/ or whatever but I just wanted to ask. Regards, Sascha ----------- % whois AS12731 as-block: AS12288 - AS13311 descr: RIPE NCC ASN block remarks: These AS numbers are further assigned by RIPE NCC remarks: to LIRs and end-users in the RIPE NCC region remarks: Please refer to RIPE Document ripe-185 remarks: and RIPE Document ripe-147 admin-c: NN32-RIPE tech-c: OPS4-RIPE mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT mnt-lower: RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT changed: hostmaster@ripe.net 20010423 source: RIPE aut-num: AS12731 as-name: IPHH descr: IPHH Internet Port Hamburg GmbH descr: Global AS Routing-Policy import: from AS3300 action pref=100; accept ANY AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0}
