Hi Hank Your scenario is not clear. When you say "each has their own resources", how did they get those resources? Were they separate LIRs that have received allocations, have there been mergers, were they all allocated to the parent organisation's LIR and distributed to sub organisations? Or do you mean they each want to have their own resources?
As far as the database is concerned, address space resources allocated to the parent organisation's LIR can be distributed to sub organisations as LIR-PARTITIONED or ALLOCATED-BY-LIR. The sub organisations can separately manage their resources. If you want exclusive management control by the sub organisations you can set the MNTNER attributes accordingly. But ultimately they are still the parent organisations resources. They could be reclaimed by the parent organisation. The organisation reference in the allocations will always be the parent organisation that was allocated the resources by the RIPE NCC. That cannot be changed. cheers denis co-chair DB-WG On Thu, 19 Nov 2020 at 16:28, Hank Nussbacher via db-wg <db-wg@ripe.net> wrote: > > Can a LIR account handle multi-tenancy? > > > What if you had a parent organization and a few sub-organizations and each > has their own resources (ASN + inetnum) that they wish to manage > independently (objects, RPKI, etc) without the other sub-organizations of > parent organization able to affect the resources. > > Is that at all possible or is the only solution to create a new LIR account? > > > Thanks, > Hank > Caveat: The views expressed above are solely my own and do not express the > views or opinions of my employer
