Hi Apologies for the cross post from ARIN-Announce. Thought that many of you would be interested in hearing about the recent ARIN Whois change given the recent discussion on NANOG. Regards, Mark Kosters ARIN CTO On 10/2/11 8:51 PM, "ARIN" <info () arin net> wrote:
ARIN has changed the Whois query behavior on port 43. A query for an IP address in the ARIN region will return only that assignment/allocation within the ARIN region, and will no longer included ARIN's parent record (the /8). Both the Whois web interface and Whois-RWS behavior were not affected by this configuration change. Regards, Mark Kosters Chief Technical Officer American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
