RIPE NCC

Overview

The RIPE NCC (Réseaux IP Européens Network Coordination Centre) is a not-for-profit organization based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, with a regional office in Dubai. It serves as one of five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) responsible for allocating and registering Internet number resources, including IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, as well as Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) across Europe, the Middle East, and parts of Central Asia. The organization supports over 20,000 members, primarily Internet Service Providers (ISPs), telecommunications companies, and large corporations managing their own networks.

The organization's core activities include registry operations, where it assigns and maintains IP addresses and ASNs, and provides various information and measurement services. These services encompass operating a global DNS root name server, offering routing information analysis, and monitoring DNS server quality. Additionally, the RIPE NCC facilitates community engagement and policy development, coordinating meetings and training on topics related to Internet governance and resource management. Membership is open to organizations providing Internet services in the region, allowing them to access resources and participate in policy discussions.
