Hi,
As I have heard, it is not allowed for ARDC to create route objects in ARIN's IRR and
for that reason, RADb is used.
I am just curious why this is the case?
ARIN members may create objects in their IRR database, ARDC are not ARIN members.
The 44 net address space is legacy address space, but it has to be registered with one of
the 5 RIR’s and it just happens to be ARIN. However, we do not have a membership agreement
with ARIN, therefore we are not permitted to utilise their IRR database.
We opened an account with RADB and for anyone that is allocated a BGP announced prefix, I
can add a route object there. Individuals are also free to use ALTDB or any other IRR
database that they may have access to. Some of the larger carriers have their own, and
will add your prefix to it on your behalf.
Kind Regards,
Chris - G1FEF
(It seems in general, creating IRR objects is possible
via IRR-online [1])
Best,
Nick
