Here are some reasons to enter into an agreement with SKIF LIR

The RIPE NCC can disable your IP address block, after which you will have to enter into an agreement with SKIF LIR within 3 months, even if you have an agreement directly with the RIPE NCC ("DA" or "Direct Assignment"). From the start of updating procedure, all independent resources must be accountable by the RIPE NCC and may only be provided subject to available agreement between the End User of resources and the LIR (SKIF LIR). Such terms are set before the new allocated independent resources, as well as the old ones that were allocated before the policy change. Two factors were chosen as criteria for prolonging the use of resources: the existence of a written agreement with the resources owner and the receipt of annual payment from the LIR that serves them. If payment is stopped, then the network is considered unused and it returns to the range of the RIPE free addresses. All owners of addresses left without LIR will be sent letters to the e-mail addresses specified in the RIPE database, with an offer to come up with LIR and sign a contract. Independent resources include: IPv4 and IPv6 IP address blocks allocated directly without the participation of the provider (PI), Internet traffic exchange points between providers (IXP) and anycast addresses. The new prolongation scheme provides for remittance of the fee for each resource separately.

What do you need to do to transfer your resources to us for service?

If the registration of the network did not take place with us, but you intend to go to us for service, you can do it! There are two options for further action:

Your LIR is not against the network migration: fill out an application on this site and you will receive a contract from us, as well as a sample email to be sent to the RIPE NCC. Upon receipt of your letter, the RIPE NCC should ask all parties (us, you, and your current LIR) whether the parties have any arguments against such a transfer. If consent is obtained, the objects will be transferred to us for maintenance. Next you need to go through the procedure of signing the contract and paying for services.

Your LIR is against the network migration: The issue can be resolved in your favor. First, you need to fill out an application on the site. The second step is to notify your LIR in writing of your unwillingness to renew your contract. For our part, we initiate the procedure of transferring your resources to our LIR for further maintenance. The e-mail address specified in the RIPE database will receive the letter stating that the contract between you and your old LIR is no longer valid and you must choose a new LIR within the next 3 months. Please reply to this email stating that it will be the UA.SKIF. From now on you can sign a contract with us. Your previous LIR has no effective pressure levers on you in the RIPE NCC. So you can feel calm and confident.
