France-IX, Paris, France, 26 September 2013

Overview• What is the RIPE NCC

– Services for members and public services– IP address policy update– Post-IPv4 run-out & IPv6 statistics

• Tools and Measurements– RIPE Labs– RIPEstat– RIPE Atlas

2



• Began operating in 1992 – Formally established in 1997 as Membership Association under Dutch law

• One of the five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs)• Supports the coordination of Internet operations• Not-for-profit membership organisation• Over 9,500 members (Local Internet Registries)• Neutral, Impartial, Open, Transparent

RIPE NCC ActivitiesMember Services

– Resource Distribution (IPv4, IPv6, ASNs)

– Resource Certification– IP Analyser– Training (LIRs, IPv6, RIPE

Database)– webinars

5

Public Services– RIPE Database – Reverse DNS– Operating K-root server– Open Meetings

– RIPE, SEE, MENOG, ENOG

– RIPE Labs– RIPEstat– RIPE Atlas– E-Learning



IP Address Policy Update• IPv4 allocations from the last /8

- LIR must already hold an IPv6 allocation

• Policy for IPv4 IXP assignments from last /8- Peering LAN only- Minimum of 3 members

6



IP Address Policy Update• Allocation transfer allowed between RIPE NCC members

- Only if address space is not in use- Minimum transferable allocation size: /22- Must qualify for allocation

- 80% usage criteria applies- Evaluated by the RIPE NCC

• Current policy proposals– No Need: Post Depletion Clean-Up– Inter-RIR Transfers

7



Post-IPv4 Run-out• Listing Service

– Enables LIRs that look for IPv4 resources– Only available for members via LIR Portal– Currently 503,808 IP addresses offered and 16,489,472 requested

• RIPE NCC helps to update legacy resources in the RIPE Database

IPv4 Transfer Statistics

IPv4 and IPv6 Allocations Since Last /8

• Make a plan before distributing the last /22- How many addresses do you have left?- Do you need any for transition mechanism?- How will IPv4 exhaustion affect your organisation?

IPv6 RIPEness• Rating system, members can earn "stars"

– First star when receiving an IPv6 allocation

– Additional stars when – It is announced on the Internet– A route6 object is created– Reverse DNS is set up

RIPE Labs



What is RIPE Labs? • It’s a website - but more importantly, it's a platform and a tool for

the community• You can:

– Test and evaluate new tools and prototypes– Contribute new ideas and research results– Provide feedback and discuss with others

RIPE Atlas



RIPE Atlas - Active Measurements Network• 4,000 measurement nodes

– Probes run different measurements– ping, traceroute, SSL, DNS

– Define your own measurements– Data publicly available– Measurement code public– Various APIs available

RIPE Atlas Use Cases• Effects of storm Sandy

on parts of Internethttps://labs.ripe.net/Members/mirjam/sandy-2012

• Find most popular instances of DNS anycast servers

RIPE Atlas Anchors• "Bigger" RIPE Atlas probes

– Can do more measurements– Act as targets for other RIPE Atlas probes

• Full mesh of RIPE Atlas anchors• New, cheaper hardware (Soekris)• Not only limited to RIPE NCC members

– We will look for new anchor hosts after RIPE 67• Zoomable ping graphs (similar to RIPEstat)

23


RIPEstat



RIPEstat - Toolbox• One-stop shop

– All data in one place– Routing, IP, geoloc, black lists, etc.– Graphical interface– Nearly 40 widgets & growing

• Updates on RIPE Labs– User feedback important!
