This is an update on recent changes to the Merit RADB Internet routing registry and announcement of helpdesk hours at the Phoenix NANOG meeting. In December of 2002, the RADB was officially rechristened the "Merit Routing Assets Database" and a redesigned website at www.radb.net was unveiled. In addition, there is now a web-based interface for RADB additions and updates. This interface may be reached at the following URL -- http://www.radb.net/cgi-bin/radb/irr-web.cgi. Merit has been actively involved with the RPSLng effort to update the RPSL standard to support IPv6 and Multicast routing policy. We have an initial implementation of the specification as documented in the following Internet draft: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-damas-rpslng-00.txt We expect to deploy this implementation in RADB registry shortly. In addition, we are working with Internet2 members to develop the I2 routing registry as an IPv6 routing registry and resource for the Internet2 community. The RADB team will once again hold a helpdesk at the NANOG meeting. Helpdesk hours are as follows: monday 10:15 break monday 3:00 break tuesday 10:35 break tuesday 12:00 lunch Regards, Larry J.
