MY RESOURCES
My Resources is a new service in the RIPE Database that allows resource
holders and members who sponsor resources to get a comprehensive
overview of all IPv4, IPv6 and ASN resources they hold or sponsor at a
glance. Resource holders can also manage their resources with an
easy-to-use inline editor.

CORRECT COMPANY NAME IN RIPE NCC RECORDS
If there has been a change to your legal company name since you became a
member, please let us know. Not informing us of company name changes can
cause problems for your future interactions with the RIPE NCC and can
take time to resolve on both sides. If your company has changed its
legal name, please let us know through the LIR Portal at:
https://my.ripe.net/#/update-registry

RIPE POLICY IMPLEMENTATION - "RIPE RESOURCE TRANSFER POLICIES"
The RIPE NCC has implemented policy proposal 2015-04, "RIPE Resource
Transfer Policies". In accordance with the new policy, the 24-month
transfer restriction applies to all scarce resources (IPv4 and 16-bit
ASNs). The restriction also applies if the resource was received due to
a change in the organisation’s business structure (such as a merger or
acquisition).

Further details on the implementation are available in the announcement:

RIPE ATLAS FIRMWARE UPDATE
We’re currently in the process of deploying a new firmware update for
RIPE Atlas V1 and V2 probes. The update provides a fix for a bug that
caused around 15% of RIPE Atlas V1 probes to disconnect.

Petros Gigis presents a prototype web portal, which demonstrates the
deployment of RIPE Atlas probes within eyeball networks based on
Internet user population estimates per ASN per country:
