Updates made to the LIR Training Course Material in 2008

The LIR Training Course material is updated continuously. New policies and modifications to processes or software are included to keep the information presented in the Training Courses as up-to-date as possible. Please find below the most important modifications:

Summer 2008 (Q3)

Slides

  • Slide # 70: The amount of available 16-Bit AS Numbers is now 27%.
  • Slide #71: 32-bit AS Numbers

    Global policy on 32-bit ASN deployment schedule:

    1 Jan 2008: 16-bit default, 32-bit on request
    1 Jan 2009: 32-bit default, 16-bit on request
    1 Jan 2010: Only 32-bit AS Numbers

    Note: 16-bit AS Numbers will not be deprecated.
    This schedule applies to newly assigned ASNs
  • Slide # 72: 32-bit AS Numbers and You

    Can you handle the new format, e.g. "AS 1.5432"?
    If not, please don't wait until 2009!

    Prepare for 32-bit AS numbers in your organisation:
    • Check whether your hardware is compatible; if not, ask your hardware vendor for support
    • Check whether your upstream provider is running compatible hardware; if not, encourage them to upgrade!

The LIR Training course has been redesigned and rewritten. Now it is an activated, practical, learner centered course. Theory sections alternate with practical group exercises for better learning results. Attendees are required to have a basic understanding of the RIPE Database or alternatively to do the "Using webupdates to update basic database objects" RIPE NCC E-Learning modules before attending the training.

The new contents of the course are as follows:
  • The Internet Registry System
  • Exercise: RIPE and the RIPE NCC
  • The Policy Development Process
  • Exercise: First Day at Work as an LIR Contact
  • The RIPE Database
  • IPv4 Resources
  • Exercise: Making Assignments
  • Other Resources: AS Numbers & IPv6
  • RIPE NCC Services
  • Exercise: Slogan
