[service] Planned Maintenance Affecting the LIR Portal (18-19 October 2019)
by Matt Parker 11 Oct '19

11 Oct '19

Dear colleagues, We will soon begin migrating our ERP system to an online environment. This work will start at 16:00 (UTC+2) on Friday 18 October and last until 16:00 (UTC+2) on Saturday 19 October. The LIR Portal and other services within the LIR Portal will be unavailable during this period. This will include LIR account updates, new LIR applications, processing of payments, and ROA creation. We chose this window to minimise disruption between the RIPE Meeting and the expected IPv4 run-out in November. If you experience any problems accessing the LIR portal after this period, please contact us at <ncc(a)ripe.net>. Kind regards, Matt Parker Business Analyst RIPE NCC

[GM] Voting on the RIPE NCC 2019 Financial Surplus
by Christian Kaufmann 10 Oct '19

10 Oct '19

Dear members, For the upcoming RIPE NCC General Meeting (GM), the Executive Board is proposing three options for the RIPE NCC 2019 financial surplus. The Board feels strongly that this is an appropriate moment to strengthen the RIPE NCC's capital position to make sure that it can continue its work with a solid financial basis in the coming years. Therefore, the Board suggests that the membership vote for the option to add 50% of the financial surplus to the RIPE NCC Clearing House reserves and redistribute 50% to the membership in 2020. This option is a good compromise between adding more capital for improved stability and a predictable redistribution process where we return the financial surplus to our members. Although there are three possible outcomes (the two usual choices and the 50% choice), there are two voting options. This avoids the possibility of all options being rejected and no decision being made on the surplus. Option A (to add 100% to the reserves) is approved if it receives over 50% of Yes votes. Votes for Option B (to add 50% to the reserves) are only considered if Option A does not pass. If both options receive less than 50% of Yes votes, then the entire surplus will be redistributed to the membership in 2020. You can find more information in the supporting document: https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/gm/meetings/october-2019/redistri… And we encourage all members to register to vote at the upcoming GM: https://www.ripe.net/s/gm-registration-october-2019 Regards, Christian Kaufmann RIPE NCC Executive Board Chairman

[news] Results of the RIPE NCC Survey 2019 Now Available
by Fergal Cunningham 03 Oct '19

03 Oct '19

Dear colleagues, The Survey Matters report on the results of the RIPE NCC Survey 2019 is now published. The full report is available at: https://www.ripe.net/survey2019 The results of the survey give us an excellent overview of what our community thinks about important issues, and they will help us to improve our services and shape our strategy for the years ahead. This survey was launched at the RIPE 78 Meeting and conducted by Survey Matters to ensure independent analysis and anonymity for respondents. 4,161 people from 91 countries completed the survey, the most we've ever received for any of our large-scale surveys. The survey was open to RIPE NCC members as well as other interested parties from our service region and beyond. I would like to thank all who participated for their feedback in what is a very important project for the RIPE NCC. Survey Matters will present on the results at the upcoming RIPE 79 Meeting in Rotterdam, and we will publish a list of key findings that we will work on to address the issues that were raised in the survey. We hope you will take the time to read the results. If you have feedback, please contact us at <survey(a)ripe.net>. Kind regards, Fergal Cunningham Marketing and Communications Manager RIPE NCC

[news] Update: Approaching IPv4 Run-out
by Nikolas Pediaditis 02 Oct '19

02 Oct '19

Dear colleagues, We would like to give you an update on IPv4 run-out. Today we allocated the last of our contiguous /22 IPv4 address blocks. We still have approximately one million addresses available, in the form of /23s and /24s, and we will continue making /22-equivalent allocations made up of these smaller blocks. Once we can no longer allocate the equivalent of a /22, we will announce that we have reached run-out. We expect this to occur in November 2019. Following our last update in August, we received a very high number of new LIR applications. We have now reached a point where the number of LIRs waiting to be activated is larger than the number of /22-equivalents remaining. This means that some of these LIRs will only be eligible to request a /24 via the waiting list by the time they are activated. We alerted these applicants to this possibility during the application process. Due to the number of new LIR applications still to be processed, we estimate that it could be around eight weeks before we get to an application that is submitted today. To ensure fairness, we are processing all LIR applications (and IPv4 requests) in the order they were received. It is important to note that the delay is only with LIR applications - not IPv4 requests. Existing members can still request their final /22 allocations, provided we still have addresses available. You can find more information on our website: - Our remaining IPv4 pool: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/ipv4/ipv4-available-pool - Getting ready for IPv4 run-out: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/ipv4/getting-ready-for-ipv4-run-out - How the IPv4 waiting list will work: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/ipv4/ipv4-waiting-list - Previous announcement: https://www.ripe.net/publications/news/about-ripe-ncc-and-ripe/getting-read… Kind regards, Nikolas Pediaditis Registration Services and Policy Development Manager RIPE NCC

We have updated our software and procedures and are ready to go when the policy is triggered, which is the moment we can no longer allocate the equivalent of a /22: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/ipv4/getting-ready-for-ipv4-run-out -- New LIR Account Applications We currently have a delay in processing new LIR account applications. This is due to the high number of requests we have received recently. All applications are being processed in the order that we receive them. Applications we receive from today will be waiting several weeks before being processed. From now on, applicants will almost certainly not be able to request a /22. Instead, they will join the waiting list to receive a /24 allocation from returned address space in the future. -- Webinars in October, November and December 2019 Learn about our measurement tools, the RIPE Database, IPv4 in the transfer market and more.
