Generally speaking, the best way to deal with geolocation issues when subdelegating is to make sure that you create INET6NUM objects for your various subnets that include, at minimum, the country from which you expect to advertise them from. WHOIS serves as ground-floor data for most geo databases, so absent other signal, that’s a very good first step. -C > On Jan 31, 2022, at 8:10 AM, Michalak, Damian <v-Damian.Michalak at lionbridge.com> wrote: > > Hi there, > > This is a follow-up question to the older thread (“IPv6 - Using RIPE acquired prefix in other regions”) > > Situation: > I have acquired /32 IPv6 prefix from RIPE NCC.
