Leave the "inetnum:" and "netname:" fields empty as we (the RIPE NCC) will complete them.

Enter the legal name of the LIR's organisation in the "descr:" field.

Enter the ISO country code of the LIR's organisation in the "country:" field.

Enter the org-ID of the LIR's organisation object in the "org:" field. If you don't know your LIR's org-ID, you can find it in the Organisation Object Editor (https://lirportal.ripe.net Link: https://lirportal.ripe.net ).

Person and role objects contain information about people. Each object has a unique NIC handle (nic-hdl). You can create person and role objects using webupdates (https://www.ripe.net/webupdates Link: https://apps.db.ripe.net/webupdates ).

The nic-hdl of the role or person object in the "admin-c:" field should reflect someone who is administratively responsible for the network.

The nic-hdl of the role or person object in the "tech-c:" field should reflect someone who has technical knowledge of the network.

Maintainers protect objects in the RIPE Whois database. They contain the information needed to authorise creation, deletion or modification of these objects. You can create maintainers using the Maintainer Editor (https://lirportal.ripe.net Link: https://lirportal.ripe.net ).

The "mnt-by:" field must be RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT. You will be able to update your allocation object using the Allocation Editor (https://lirportal.ripe.net Link: https://lirportal.ripe.net ).

The "mnt-lower:" field shows which maintainer authorises the creation of inetnum objects (i.e. assignments) within the allocation block.

The "mnt-routes:" field shows which maintainer authorises the creation of route objects for the allocation block.

The RIPE Whois database must contain all of the objects that you enter.

We will send an email to the email address in the "notify:" field every time the allocation object is updated.

The "changed:" field must be [email protected].

The "source:" field must be RIPE.
