Sorry, which operational aliases did the RIRs announce before they started allocating addreses?
ARIN announced the fact that it received the 69/8 delegation on August 8th. ARIN received the delegation on August 6th. ARIN made its first allocation/assignment (I don't know which it was, but that isn't important) out of that block on September 19th.
So, that's over 1 month that people had to fix their filters. We're in December now, and clearly some people still haven't updated their filters.
Do people have any suggestions for ARIN (and other RIRs) on how they can better dissemenate this information so that people will update their filters?
Force ISPs to register with the gov't and do IRR built packet and routing filters. Distribute the data quarterly on a LERG-like CD for startups to use and keep the people who can't keep their routers up-to-date off the net. - jared (if you can't tell i'm joking ...) -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared@puck.nether.net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
