Go through this list: https://thebrotherswisp.com/index.php/geo-and-vpn/ The RFC only works if they're pulling your feed and they'd only know that if you contact them in the first place. On Thu, Apr 21, 2022 at 9:14 AM Rubens Kuhl <rubensk@gmail.com> wrote:
Besides geofeed, there are also geoidx records in IRRs but whether geolocation services actually use geofeed or geoidx remains to be seen. You can see some geoidx: at this IRR entry in TC: https://bgp.net.br/whois/?q=-s%20TC%20-i%20mnt-by%20MAINT-AS271761
Regarding LACNIC, what LACNIC, NIC.mx and NIC.br do is to select which RIR or NIR services requests depending on the organisation's country.

Aloha NANOG,
What is the best practice (or peoples preferred methods) to update/correct/maintain geolocation data? Do most people start with description field info in route/route6 objects?
Also, thoughts and considerations on using IPv4 space from one RIR in countries belonging to another RIR?
With IPv4 exhaustion and inter-RIR IPv4 transfers, and geolocation data,
seems less applicable than it had been (a decade ago). The IP's will be used for CDN, not by end-users/subscribers. Context: trying to work through an administrative "challenge" with LACNIC regarding an IPv4 transfer, considering transferring to ARIN and then using in LACNIC (then once resolved, transfer from ARIN to LACNIC). Or just using existing ARIN space in Brazil. LACNIC is making things more difficult than they need to be. I know
it this is
NANOG... but seeking advice, working on a global network, US HQ, currently no active "registration" in LACNIC (except Brazil), but we operate in 5 countries in the region (data center/colo). We would use Brazil, but very hesitant to use their NIC (nic.br); LACNIC is saying we cannot maintain our relationship with them using our Brazil organization (our only formal subsidiary in the region). LACNIC does not really define the "entity" operating in their region well. We use our US entity with RIPE and APNIC, simply showing documentation (contracts) that we operate in their region. Maybe I am not using the magic word?
