[Community-Discuss] Questions about AfriNIC Allocations

[Andrew Alston]

That’s well interesting.

Yesterday – I pulled the afrinic-delegated-latest file – and it seems the latest link wasn’t updated or something, because the stats in the delegated file that I pulled yesterday – were VERY different from the latest file that I pulled today.

I’m pulling all the actual dated files now rather than the linked ones and will re-run the stats

since this is a democracy, I vote for 163.

[frank at fisi ~]$ egrep '\|asn\|[0-9]+\|[0-9]+\|2018[0-9]{4}\|'
delegated-afrinic-extended-20181204 | wc -l
163

Agenda item 1:
