Re: IP whois info

When processing cflowd and wanting to resolve IP nets as well as ASNs as quickly as possible is there a trick to do the lookups rather than trying RIPE, ARIN, APNIC (and perhaps others) in a cyclical manner? Is there some static file that one can download that lists just the IP nets and ASN and who it belongs to (for all databases - not just ARIN)?

At the RIPE NCC we have separate files for IP (inetnum's) and ASN (autnum's) available at the RIPE ftp site. However contact information is not available in form of a file. Please contact <ripe-dbm@ripe.net> to discuss the details.

Thanks, Hank
