E N D
Outline • Goals/Issues • Activities • ASN • IPv4 • Timeline
Goals • Transfer whois data to appropriate RIR • Improve member services • No loss of data • Preserve information • ‘Regionalize’ presentation of data • Improve processes, protection • RIR goal • Shared Reverse DNS processes for Ipv4
Issues • Data accuracy • Out of date point of contact information • Some data superseded by newer RIR information • Missing email/phone information • Mostly manual process • Formletters, Procedures • Data conversion incurs manual overhead (checking)
Activities • Document technical procedures (done) • Joint-RIR-mtg Toronto Nanog, June • Identify resources for transfer • ASN (done) • Ipv4 (done) • Select /8 blocks for initial deployment • In progress (ARIN, APNIC) • Perform transfer /8 at a time • In planning • Structure project • Sanjaya is APNIC contact
ASN Activities • ASN identified • 100 objects, people • Letters to ASN holder sent • Whois objects created • Hm/tech joint activity • Manual processes • Exposed some issues • Maintainer format • Handover of 'ownership'
IPv4 Activities • Initial list of target /8 • Iniitially 2 entire /8 move to APNIC • (some JP /8 remain with ARIN, DNS for /8 still requires ARIN to manage in-addr) • Need to select first /8 and subsequent order for partial zone transfers • Number of discrete allocations in /8 will influence order
IPv4 Activities cont • Better person/maintainer procedures • Simpler name/nic-hdl generation process • Identify problems for manual processing • Improve member & community communications • DNS implications • Domain object creation • ‘preserve current DNS state’
IPv4 issues cont #2 • Documentation review • Update website(s) with list of networks being moved & dates • Bed in shared DNS processes • Work in progress
Timeline • June ERX project spec Toronto • Aug ASN relocation • Precursor project: APNIC DNS procedures cutover to whois v3 • Aug 20 whois v3 deployment • Identify initial /8, list of /8 • Update website • 4 Q 2002 • First /8 move planned
