ASN32 deployment
by Denis Walker 03 Jan '07

03 Jan '07

[Apologies for duplicate e-mails] Dear colleagues, This morning, between 07:00 and 09:00 (UTC), we deployed new software for the RIPE Database. Three changes were made: 1. The new software allows the creation of 32-bit (4-byte) Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). There is more information about this in the references at the end of this e-mail. 2. The ORGANISATION object type NON-REGISTRY has been changed to OTHER. The RIPE NCC modified all existing organisation objects which had the old type. There is more information about this at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/db-wg/2006/msg00245.html 3. We reversed changes made to the status of ERX objects. While implementing the ASSIGNED ANYCAST status, other changes were made. This prevented more specific assignments from being created within EARLY REGISTRATION ranges. These changes have been rolled back. If you have any questions about any of these changes, send an e-mail to <ripe-dbm(a)ripe.net>. Regards Denis Walker Database Group RIPE NCC -------- References: The new 32-bit ASN format is described in these documents: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-michaelson-4byte-as-representatio… http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-uijterwaal-rpsl-4byteas-ext-01.txt Sites using the RIPE Database software will probably have to upgrade their systems. See: http://www.ripe.net/news/asn-db-update.html Our test database (e-mail to <test-dbm(a)ripe.net> or access through webupdates) also now handles the new AS number format.
