RIPE NCC Sponsoring LIR

LIR Services

We sponsor and manage internet number resources through RIPE NCC — ASN registration, IPv6 and IPv4 allocations, RPKI, and registry management. No need to become a RIPE member yourself.

Why through DMN

  • No need to become a RIPE NCC member — we act as your sponsoring LIR
  • Full lifecycle management: registration, annual renewals, database maintenance
  • RPKI/ROA configured from the start, not bolted on as an afterthought
  • ASN transfers handled end-to-end when moving from another LIR
  • Technical support for BGP, peering, and route policy alongside the registry work

What we deliver

01

ASN Sponsorship

We sponsor new Autonomous System Numbers through RIPE NCC. We handle the application, justification, and registry coordination so you get your own ASN without needing to become a RIPE member yourself. We also handle ASN transfers from other LIRs.

02

IPv6 Allocations

Provider-aggregatable (PA) and provider-independent (PI) IPv6 address space in sizes from /48 to /32. We manage the allocation through RIPE, handle the registry objects, and maintain them on your behalf year after year.

03

IPv4 Address Space

IPv4 is scarce, but we help you acquire it — whether through the RIPE transfer market, broker networks, or existing holders. We handle due diligence on the address space, transfer paperwork, and registry updates.

04

RPKI & ROA Management

We create and maintain Route Origin Authorizations (ROAs) for all your prefixes, protecting your address space against route hijacking. Your announcements are cryptographically verifiable from day one.

05

IRR & Database Objects

We create and maintain your RIPE database objects — aut-num, route/route6, as-set, maintainer, and organisation records. Properly documented registry entries that upstream providers and IXPs expect to see.

06

BGP & Peering Support

Once your resources are assigned, we help you announce them. BGP configuration, upstream peering sessions, IXP onboarding, prefix filtering, and route policy — set up correctly from the first announcement.
