Configuring RIR Communication Settings

...

1. From the Administration tab, select the RIR tab, and then select RIR Settings -> RIPE from the Toolbar.
2. In the RIR Communication Settings - RIPE editor, select one of the following to determine how the appliance sends updates to RIPE. The default is API.
   • API: The appliance sends RIR updates to RIPE through the RIPE API. The default destination is _ https://rest.db.ripe.net_ for accessing the production database and _ https://rest-test.db.ripe.net_ for accessing the test database. Click Override and enter a different URL to override the default value. When you select this as the communication method, the registration status will be updated automatically after the registration update is completed. Note that RIPE supports only secure connections using HTTPS.
   • Email: The appliance sends RIR updates to RIPE through the email address displayed in the field. The default is auto-dbm@ripe.net. Click Override and enter a different email address to override the default value. The appliance uses a special email template that includes values of certain RIR attributes. If any of the RIR attribute values do not match the database in the RIPE database, your submission will fail. When you select Email as the communication method, ensure that you enable email notifications at the Grid level. For information how to enable email notifications, see Setting SNMP and Email Notifications. Note that when you select this as the communication method, the registration status will not be automatically updated. You can manually change the status. For information, see Modifying RIR Network Data.
   • None: The appliance does not send RIR updates to RIPE.
3. Save the configuration.
