Short update on that issue... > Does anyone know who operates geoiplookup.net and how to contact them?
It looks like they source their Data from MaxMind but are solver implementing corrections and therefore lacking behind corrections published there. The issue we have is not with content, but with services. There is one SIP telephone service provider which fences his customers to Swiss IP addresses only and provides services to businesses. So if the static routed IP addresses of the business customer is locate outside Switzerland, this is an effective denial of service to the telephony of that customer. This happens for the 3rd time within only a couple of weeks to the same customer of us now. The TSP in question blames us for assigning foreign ip addresses to the customer in question and recommends the customer should get a new Swiss ip range from us. This of course is not feasible, as this would require lots of changes on the customer side. Customer in question has an own transparent RIPE entry with country: ch since 2016! The range in question was never (since 2003, ripe does not provide prior data) assigned to an ISP or customer outside Switzerland. What I am trying to do now, is set up an ISP bulk location feed to MaxMind and trying to persuade them to put a lock on our ip ranges so only we can provide locations for those and noone else. (Has anyone done this successfully?) I am also pressing them to disclose how the same ip ranges now repeatedly got put back to Germany shortly after we successfully submitted corrections. But all I get now is: * Please use the online correction form. * Thank you for submitting the correction, which we will push in our next update. Still waiting for a human reaction related to that specific issue.
