On Wednesday, between 15:42 and 17:27 (UTC+1), while performing a clean-up operation on our network equipment, we experienced an outage on our network which affected our virtual environment. This caused a number of our services to be unavailable for a period of time, ranging from 20 minutes to 1 hour and 45 minutes. Major services affected: 15:42 - 16:02 Internal network 15:42 - 16:08 RIPE Database 15:42 - 16:50 LIR Portal 15:42 - 16:55 www.ripe.net 15:42 - 17:27 RIPE Labs Major services not affected: DNS, K-root. As a result, we are reviewing our network maintenance procedures to minimise the risks of this occurring again. We apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused. Kind regards Brian Riddle IT Manager RIPE NCC From alexb at ripe.net Thu Jan 16 10:38:26 2014 From: alexb at ripe.net (Alex Band) Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 10:38:26 +0100 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] Proposed Implementation of Resource Certification for non-RIPE NCC Members Message-ID: <7FD63AFF-FC80-4EC2-BAD5-803F414A82B5@ripe.net> Dear colleagues, We have been working on the implementation of 2013-04, "Resource Certification for non-RIPE NCC Members", and would like to give you an overview of our proposed plan for certifying address space held by Provider Independent (PI) End Users. You can find the full details below. In summary: 1. We propose to only issue certificates for PI End User resources if an End User Assignment Agreement has been submitted and verified by the RIPE NCC and all internal RIPE Registry records match with the associated information in the RIPE Database 2. Users will no longer be able to update the "org-name:? attribute in the organisation object without RIPE NCC involvement. This attribute will only be locked if the organisation object is referenced from a resource object. With this step we are enforcing an existing business rule. 3. RIPE NCC Access authorisation will be added to the RIPE Database. This will simply be an additional value for the "auth:" attribute, referencing your RIPE NCC Access account. Detailed explanation: Currently, when a PI resource is assigned to an End User, we make a record of the organisation name and the organisation-id in our registry. This information is reflected in the related inetnum object for the resource (the org-id attribute), as well as the organisation object (the org-name attribute). However, it is possible that these informational elements can fall out of sync, as the End User is free to update these objects without involving the RIPE NCC. This can negatively impact the accuracy of the registry. One of the primary goals of issuing resource certificates is to make the RIPE Registry as accurate and robust as possible. Therefore, we propose to only issue certificates for PI End User resources: 1. If an End User Assignment Agreement has been submitted and verified by the RIPE NCC 2. If all internal RIPE Registry records match with the associated information in the RIPE Database During the request procedure, we would perform checks to see if the resources are eligible for certification. If all of the records in the RIPE Registry and RIPE Database match, the PI End User or Sponsoring LIR would be able to request a certificate without interaction with the RIPE NCC. However, if registry and database information are out of sync, we would ask you to first resolve this (with our help) to ensure that all records match correctly. In this implementation, you will no longer be able to update the "org-name:? attribute in the organisation object without RIPE NCC involvement. This attribute will only be locked if the organisation object is referenced from a resource object. This would ensure that our registry records remain accurate at all times. Additionally, the RIPE NCC plans to launch a project where we will proactively match the RIPE Registry and RIPE Database records in cooperation with the resource holder. Another aspect we need to implement is the association of a RIPE NCC Access account with the person who has authoritative control over the resources. In order to achieve this, we will introduce the ability to add a RIPE NCC Access account to a MNTNER object in the RIPE Database. Practically, this will simply be an additional value for the "auth:" attribute, referencing your RIPE NCC Access account. This will immediately fulfil a long-standing user request to be able to update RIPE Database objects with your RIPE NCC Access account, making authentication between different RIPE NCC services more seamless. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

" - and asking for feedback and thoughts I am a LIR with multiple independent resources for my customers and I think the suggested implementation is reasonable. The proposal is easy to understand, aligns well with the current usage of the whois database and will allow me and colleagues to lookup the link. So from LIR dk.solidonetworks this is a +1 go ahead with the proposed implementation.

The RIPE NCC?s proposed implementation plan of the policy can be found here: > https://labs.ripe.net/Members/johan_ahlen/policy-2012-08-proposed-plan-for-implementation I think the proposal for implementation as outlined is sound (wearing my hat as the manager of an LIR which sponsors some resources for our community). There's one (minor) loose end maybe, where I don't easily understand the background or goal for a First Track item: ? A resource is transferred from one sponsoring LIR to another, or to the infrastructure of an LIR The transfer case is obvious, but I'm not sure that a resource needs a "sponsored-by" label pointing to self? IIRC we already do have assignements of resources for an LIR's/ISPs infratructure. So wouldn't we create two different flavours of "infrastructure"? I may easily miss something, though :-) Regards, Wilfried > You can find the full policy proposal at: > https://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2012-08 > > The corresponding RIPE Document is ripe-603, which is available at: > https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-603 > > If you have any comments or concerns, please let us know. > > Note: this email has been sent to both the RIPE NCC Services WG and the RIPE Database WG mailing lists.
