[db-wg] db-wg Digest, Vol 57, Issue 1

Hello again.
I spoke too soon.
I still get errors when I try to make NIC-handles looking like this:

ALE1574-ADMIN
AK1576-ADM
Etc.

That shouldn't happen, right?

Thanks again.

- Øystein

Denis has already provided a good answe. But let me help more with an example.

No, you may not have 2 dashes in the NIC handle. You can only have a NIC handle of the form:

XXX

or

XXX-YYY

The first part (XXX) has to start with 2-4 letters, and optionally up to
6 digits. The -YYY part is optional, but if present, must be a dash, followed by up to 9 letters. Here are some valid examples:

ALE
ALE-RIPE
ALE1234
AL345-RIPE
ALE90-KOMMUNE

But the following are NOT allowed:

ALE-ADMIN-C
AL023
ALESUND


Regards,
Anand

Almost :) But after the '-' you can only use a source name, like 'RIPE, 'APNIC', etc.

so ALE90-KOMMUNE is not allowed
