As many of you know, Merit began a production RPSL service on 11/1/99.
RIPE-181 and RPSL coexisted on our production server until 1/1/00;
after that date, RIPE-181 updates were no longer accepted and only
queries were available on the special RIPE-181 server.
Merit will now complete the final stage of its transition to RPSL by
decommissioning its RADB RIPE-181 server on Wednesday, August 23,
between 5:00-8:00 A.M. EDT. Query activity has been extremely light
on the RIPE-181 server and the remaining users have been notified by
private email about the termination of this service. This change will
not impact our production RPSL service.
Please send your questions and comments to db-admin@radb.net.
