32-bit AS Number status?
by Shane Kerr 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

All, I noticed that the proposed updated AS Number policy was sent to the address-policy-wg recently. There is a timeline for 32-bit AS Number in both the old and new versions, which says: "From 1 January 2010 the RIPE NCC will cease to make any distinction between 16-bit AS Numbers and 32-bit only AS Numbers, and will operate AS Number assignments from an undifferentiated 32-bit AS Number allocation pool." I'm not sure exactly what this means, but I think it is supposed to mean that people get 32-bit AS Numbers now. Did this happen? If it didn't, why not? Do we need to change "2010" to "2011"? Is it ever going to happen? If it did, was there any effect? I mean both from humans (angry LIRs, peasants marching on the castle with torches, riots in the streets), or on the Intertubes (ugly routing artifacts, mass reboots of boxes with old firmware, monitoring systems gone wild)? Just wondering. :) -- Shane

Reverse DNS Outage Announcement
by Sjoerd Oostdijck 22 Jan '10

22 Jan '10

[Apologies for duplicates] Dear Colleagues, At 13:50 on Thursday, 21 January, an error was introduced into the RIPE NCC's reverse DNS provisioning system. This caused reverse DNS delegations to stop working for allocations in the following range: 77.0.0.0 to 77.220.7.255 This error was triggered by an internal cleanup of our Early Registration Transfer (ERX) DNS delegations, which was being conducted as part of the RIPE NCC's Registration Data Quality (RDQ) project. The reverse DNS provisioning system was corrected again on 22 January at 09:50 (UTC). However, due to negative caching in DNS resolvers, the problem may have remained visible for a further two hours. The RIPE NCC is currently revising the reverse DNS provisioning system to prevent errors such as this occurring in future. If you have any questions or comments, please send an email to <ncc(a)ripe.net>. Regards, Sjoerd Oostdijck DNS Services Group, RIPE NCC

Do you use, or intend to start using, PGP? If not, you do not need to do anything. If you do use PGP, the steps are basically: download the key, check its authenticity, sign it using your copy of PGP and add it to a key ring. Then use the new key (instead of the previous one) to verify the email messages you receive from the RIPE NCC. -- Thor Kottelin http://www.anta.net/
