[ncc-services-wg] LIR Portal APIs to simplify your IP Address Management

Dear colleagues,

Over the last couple of months we have been working on the IP Analyser in the LIR Portal. The application is currently still in beta, but it is proving to be very popular 
with over 20,000 page views since the launch. 

This week we have released an update to the API for the IP Analyser, in order to help you simply your local IP address management. It means the following is now available:

The My Resources API: 
Access all registry information about your resources in JSON or XML format, including ASNs, IPv4 and IPv6 allocations, Assignment Window history, PI assignments, Legacy space, etc.

The IP Analyser API: 
Access all information about your IPv4 assignments, available free space and invalid assignments that require your attention, in JSON or plain text format. 

The plain text output uses the same formatting as the asused tool, that many of you are familiar with. It also means that you no longer need to contact NCC Registration Services if you would like to have an overview of your invalid assignments.

Before we make this a production service, we would really appreciate your input on this functionality; especially on the new JSON format for the IP Analyser. If there is anything missing or you would like to have changed, we can take it along in our planning and roadmap. There is also an opportunity to provide feedback in the NCC Services WG session at RIPE 65. Over the next couple of weeks, we will be expanding the IP Analyser UI, and add more IPv6 information. 

You can find the documentation for these, and all other APIs we offer at http://ripe.net/developers

Looking forward to your feedback!

Kind regards,

Alex Band
