Hi WG,

AFAIK there is an existing policy/process that the RIPE NCC will create ROA AS0 records for prefixes not currently allocated to any LIR. This prevents unused IP space from being originated into the DFZ.

Is there a similar policy or process that ensures RIPE will create ASPA AS0 records for ASNs not currently allocated (again, to ensure they aren't used)?

If I look at an example ASN allocated to RIPE by IANA, but not currently allocated by RIPE to any LIR (AS219350), there is no ASPA AS0 record for this ASN.

If no such policy or process exists, what is the correct path to establish such a policy/process?

With kind regards,

James Bensley (he/him)
