What are overlapping assignments and how should I fix these?

Public IP addresses must not be configured on more than one network at a time to avoid address collisions. In the same way, it is not valid to register the same IP addresses in more than one RIPE Database inetnum ASSIGNED PA object. Please check which database object represents the address range that is actually in use and then delete the redundant inetnum object.
