Just did a whois on the documentation prefix and was surprised to see what looks like a user object registered for it:
% Information related to '2001:0DB8::/32AS132111'

Any idea what this is ? I would have thought there might be some sanity check that would have stopped this from getting registered ?
Hi, If you look for TEST-NET-3, it is also registered to APNIC: alarig@pikachu ~ % whois 203.0.113.1 % [whois.apnic.net] % Whois data copyright terms http://www.apnic.net/db/dbcopyright.html % Information related to '203.0.113.0 - 203.0.113.255' inetnum: 203.0.113.0 - 203.0.113.255 netname: TEST-NET-3 descr: IANA descr: RFC5737 Documentation Address Block country: AU admin-c: HM20-AP tech-c: HM20-AP mnt-by: APNIC-HM mnt-routes: APNIC-HM status: ASSIGNED PORTABLE remarks: -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-++-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ remarks: This block is reserved for use in documentation and remarks: should not be used in any real networks. remarks: Please see more details at remarks: http://www.iana.org/go/rfc5737 remarks: -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-++-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ source: APNIC mnt-irt: IRT-APNICRANDNET-AU changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20100617 irt: IRT-APNICRANDNET-AU address: PO Box 3646 address: South Brisbane, QLD 4101 address: Australia e-mail: abuse@apnic.net abuse-mailbox: abuse@apnic.net admin-c: AR302-AP tech-c: AR302-AP auth: # Filtered mnt-by: MAINT-AU-APNIC-GM85-AP changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20110922 source: APNIC role: APNIC Hostmaster address: 6 Cordelia Street address: South Brisbane address: QLD 4101 country: AU phone: +61 7 3858 3100 fax-no: +61 7 3858 3199 e-mail: helpdesk@apnic.net admin-c: AMS11-AP tech-c: AH256-AP nic-hdl: HM20-AP remarks: Administrator for APNIC notify: hostmaster@apnic.net mnt-by: MAINT-APNIC-AP changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 19981111 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20020211 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20070612 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20100217 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20101217 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20110815 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20121024 changed: hm-changed@apnic.net 20131023 source: APNIC % This query was served by the APNIC Whois Service version 1.69.1-APNICv1r0 (UNDEFINED) As long as APNIC is a RIR, I don’t see a big issue with that. -- alarig
