IP Resources
Gentlent provides IP address space and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) to organizations and individuals in the RIPE service region. By acquiring these internet numbering resources, you can establish your own network presence, improve your routing capabilities, and enhance the performance and reliability of your internet connectivity. Accredited Local Internet Registry
Gentlent is an accredited Local Internet Registry (LIR) under the RIPE Network Coordination Centre (RIPE NCC). This accreditation allows us to provide IP address space and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) to organizations and individuals in the RIPE service region. As an LIR, we adhere to the policies and guidelines set forth by the RIPE NCC, ensuring that IP resources are allocated and managed responsibly.

Internet Numbering Resources as the key to BGP / Freedom
Internet Numbering Resources — IP addresses and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) — are vital to the functioning of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), which routes data across the internet. These resources ensure global connectivity and support the decentralized nature of the internet, preserving digital freedom and the free flow of information. By maintaining an equitable distribution of these resources, we uphold a resilient and open internet, essential for innovation and communication in our connected world
Autonomous System Numbers
An Autonomous System Number (ASN) is a unique identifier assigned to an autonomous system (AS) by a regional internet registry (RIR). An autonomous system is a collection of IP networks and routers under the control of a single organization that presents a unified routing policy to the internet. ASNs are crucial for the exchange of routing information between different ASes, enabling efficient and reliable data transmission across the global internet. By using an ASN, your organization can establish direct relationships with other networks, control your own routing, and improve the redundancy and performance of your internet connectivity.

IPv4
IPv4 is a widely used internet protocol that uses 32-bit addresses, allowing for about 4.3 billion unique IP addresses. With your own IPv4 range and an ASN (Autonomous System Number), you can directly manage your internet routing, connect to multiple ISPs for redundancy, control traffic flows, lease IPs, and enhance network securityIPv6
IPv6 is the successor to IPv4, using 128-bit addresses, which allows for a virtually unlimited number of unique IP addresses. With your own IPv6 range and an ASN (Autonomous System Number), you can manage routing, connect to multiple ISPs, optimize traffic, lease IPs, and secure your network, similar to IPv4 but with more address space and improved efficiencyFrequently Asked Questions
Why should I adopt IPv6?
IPv6 adoption is crucial due to the exhaustion of IPv4 addresses. It ensures the scalability of your network and enables continued growth of the Internet.
How do I manage the IP addresses allocated to me?
You can manage your IP address space in our dashboard. It allows you to do a few modifications as well as see what the current status of it is.
How can I permit ASN's to my network?
Our dashboard provides an easy and realtime way to permit the ASNs you want, automatically updates the RPKI entries as well as provides you with a way to download the relevant Letter of Authorization immediately.
What is an Autonomous System Number (ASN)?
An ASN is a unique identifier used to represent an autonomous system, which is a collection of IP networks and routers under a single organization's control, often for routing purposes.
When do I need to use BGP with my ASN?
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is used with an ASN when your organization needs to exchange routing information with other networks, typically when you have multiple Internet connections.
How do I request a IPv4 Network?
