I also would like to see this list again!
So would I :) This page used to be http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/mem-services/general/allocs4.html And we also had http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/mem-services/general/allocs6.html Both have now disappeared... These pages listed IP allocations sorted by country and by LIR. I used them only for teaching purposes in my university, and they were INCREDIBLY useful for teaching CIDR! The other files containing country and LIR information that are still available do not fit the same purpose: - ftp://ftp.ripe.net/pub/stats/ripencc/delegated-ripencc-latest and ftp://ftp.ripe.net/pub/stats/ripencc/issued/ do not contain LIR information - ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/ripe.db.gz contains detailed and "raw" data, as compared to previous "allocs" files For a few days the October 2004 version of allocs4.html (not allocs6) was accessible at: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/local-ir/allocations But now this one also has gone... I understand that the other RIRs did not have such files, and I used to be grateful to RIPE for these. Yet I still have a local copy for October 2004, but it is a pity not to be able to access any longer the up-to-date version! I first thought the file was withdrawn for "security reasons". But all the material inside is (presently) still publically avalaible in whois DB. Or even in the following files: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/split/ripe.db.inetnum.gz (64113 KB) ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/split/ripe.db.inet6num.gz (310 KB) And these files are much more complete and thus larger than the former allocs4 and allocs6... It seems that these pages had some interest for a few people. Usage Statistics for www.ripe.net in September 2004 at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/www3/www-http/usage_200409.html indicate that "allocs" files ranked 14 and 15 in the top entry pages: 14 2623 0.01% 1398 0.07% /ripencc/mem-services/general/allocs.html 15 2415 0.01% 974 0.05% /ripencc/mem-services/general/allocs4.html with a total 5000 hits cumulated on that month, and similar stats in previous months... (They also ranked 5 and 6 in Top URLs by Kilobytes!) Hope I might contribute to a future reappearance of these files in any access protocol (FTP/HTTP/etc)? Sincerely, Patrick.
