Not sure which list is appropriate so please reply only to the list that
people point out as the one which should handle the following issue:
I have modified a number of objects to be now LEGACY objects. inet-nums
and aut-nums.
When the object is processed and converted into a LEGACY object, RIPE
auto-adds the following line to each object:
mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT
This is documented here:
https://www.ripe.net/data-tools/db/release-notes/ripe-database-release-1.77
Policy 2012-07: Legacy holder organisations cannot change their
organisation name in their org object if it is referenced by an INETNUM or
AUTNUM that is maintained by RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT.
I then noticed I needed to delete some import and export lines on my
aut-num policy.
No can do any more. I now get the error:
Authorisation for [aut-num] AS378 failed
using "mnt-by:"
not authenticated by: RIPE-NCC-LEGACY-MNT, AS378-MNT
So this now means *every* change to any legacy IP block or ASN has to go
via RIPE. But I have been unable to find how to go about informing RIPE
that I need to make an object modification. Any pointers would be helpful.
