LIR Services

As an accredited Local Internet Registry (LIR) with RIPE NCC, we provide access to the Internet resources you need: IP addresses, AS numbers, and registrations in the RIPE database.

What is a LIR?

A Local Internet Registry (LIR) is an organization accredited by a Regional Internet Registry (RIR) - in our case RIPE NCC for Europe - to distribute Internet resources: IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses, and Autonomous System Numbers (ASN).

By using our LIR services, you benefit from officially registered resources, expert technical support, and full compliance with RIPE NCC policies.

Our LIR services

Internet resources tailored to your infrastructure needs

IPv4 Address Leasing

IPv4 addresses are a rare and valuable resource. We offer leasing of IPv4 blocks (/24 minimum) to meet your public addressing needs, whether for hosting, cloud services, or network infrastructure.

Each leased block is officially registered in the RIPE database with your information, guaranteeing complete legitimacy and clean IP reputation. We handle all administrative formalities with RIPE NCC.

Typical use cases

  • Hosting providers and cloud service providers
  • Enterprises with public addressing requirements
  • Operators and ISPs
  • Projects requiring dedicated and clean IPs

What's included

  • Official RIPE registration under your name
  • Configuration of RIPE objects (inetnum, route)
  • Technical support for BGP announcement
  • Reverse DNS management (PTR)
  • Flexible contract (monthly or annual)

IPv6 Allocation

Prepare for the future with IPv6. Unlike IPv4, IPv6 addresses are available in abundance and we can allocate substantial blocks (/48, /44 or larger) to cover all your current and future needs.

IPv6 adoption is no longer optional: many operators and content providers now require it. We support you in deploying a solid and sustainable IPv6 strategy.

IPv6 advantages

  • Virtually unlimited address space
  • Much lower cost than IPv4
  • Better network performance (no more NAT)
  • Compliance with modern standards

What's included

  • Minimum /48 block (65,536 /64s)
  • Official RIPE registration
  • Custom addressing plan
  • Dual-stack deployment support
  • Reverse DNS delegation

ASN Sponsoring

An Autonomous System Number (ASN) is essential for announcing your own IP prefixes via BGP. We sponsor your ASN request with RIPE NCC, allowing you to obtain your own identity on the Internet.

With your ASN, you can establish BGP sessions with multiple operators (multi-homing), control your route announcements, and gain independence from your transit providers.

Why have your own ASN?

  • Multi-homing: redundancy with multiple operators
  • Independence: portability of your IP addresses
  • Peering: direct connection with other networks
  • Control: full control of your routing policies

What's included

  • RIPE ASN request and acquisition
  • Configuration of RIPE objects (aut-num, as-set)
  • Creation of route/route6 objects
  • BGP configuration support
  • PeeringDB registration (optional)

RIPE Database Management

The RIPE database contains all registration information for European Internet resources. We manage the creation and maintenance of your RIPE objects: maintainer, organisation, person/role, inetnum, route, aut-num, etc.

A well-maintained RIPE database is essential for your IP resource reputation, RPKI validation, and proper Internet routing functionality. We ensure compliance with RIPE policies and industry best practices.

Services included

  • Creation of organisation objects
  • RPKI/ROA configuration
  • Management of abuse-c and contacts
  • Audit and cleanup of existing objects
  • Training in RIPE management

RPKI & Routing Security

Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) secures your BGP announcements by creating Route Origin Authorizations (ROA). This prevents hijacking of your IP prefixes and strengthens trust in your announcements.

More and more operators are filtering BGP announcements not validated by RPKI. Without ROA, your prefixes risk being ignored by part of the Internet. We configure and maintain your ROAs to guarantee the validity of your announcements.

Protection ensured

  • Creation and management of ROAs
  • Protection against BGP hijacking
  • Route origin validation
  • RPKI validity monitoring
  • MANRS best practices compliance
