AW: [db-wg] Adding route objects

Hi,

Yes, you are right, if you have authenticated against the maintainer 
of the inetnum (mnt-by/mnt-routes) and against the maintainer of the 
new AS, you should be allowed to create the new route object.

But you also have to delete the obsolete old object. And if

you can't, you have to contact RIPE NCC. There is a procedure at RIPE: 

Ask your customer to send a FAX using the company letterhead paper and 
signed by one of the responsible contacts of the IP range. The FAX should 
include the explanation and requesting to remove the route object from 
the RIPE Database. Submit this FAX to +31 20 535 4341. Ask the customer 
to include the Ticket Number (if existing) in the FAX. RIPE NCC will 
remove it then.
