Hold estimate
Estimated hold end 2026-04-12. Possible reissue candidate after this date; not confirmed available.
Removed from active registration. The tracker found it by comparing the RIPE NCC's daily statistics. The RIPE NCC's statistics show it allocated (dated 2006-12-05) on 2025-10-13 and reserved on 2025-10-14. Public sources do not distinguish a voluntary return, revocation, or reclamation. The RIPE NCC holds returned, revoked and reclaimed ASNs for 180 days (six months), or longer while still routed, before reissuing them, so the estimated hold end is 2026-04-12. This does not confirm availability.
