Estimated hold end 2027-05-01. 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 assigned (dated 2026-10-23) on 2026-11-01 and reserved on 2026-11-02. Public sources do not distinguish a voluntary return, revocation, or reclamation. The RIPE NCC holds returned, revoked and reclaimed IPv4 space for 180 days (six months), or longer while still routed, before reissuing it, so the estimated hold end is 2027-05-01. This does not confirm availability.

Removed from active registration. The tracker found it by comparing the RIPE NCC's daily statistics. The RIPE NCC's statistics show it assigned (dated 2013-06-14) on 2013-07-14 and reserved on 2013-07-15. Public sources do not distinguish a voluntary return, revocation, or reclamation. The RIPE NCC's current hold for IPv4 space applies to removals from 2014-03-26 on, and this one came earlier, so the tracker gives no estimate. This does not confirm availability.
