Sixty-one RIPE Meetings on, RIPE 92 brings us back to Edinburgh - city of festivals, gothic skylines, and uphill walking. As always, there's the slides, there's the videos, but to get a real feel for what's happening through the week, tune into the daily meeting blog.

A 2026 operational review of Public ENUM under e164.arpa found that half of the current delegations show some form of DNS problem. The findings are expected to be discussed at RIPE 92, including the operational status and future support of Public ENUM under e164.arpa.

The RIPE Chair Team reports on what to expect at RIPE 92, including the main programme and parallel events, WG chair selections and support for newcomers, as well as highlights from recent industry events.

PeeringDB is a widely used resource for interconnection data, and in these regular updates, we help users keep track of how the platform evolves. This report summarises significant PeeringDB changes over the last six months.

Proposed at RIPE 91 in the Address Policy Working Group and then further discussed in the Database Working Group, the reg-nr: attribute (NWI-21) has already been implemented ahead of RIPE 92, showing how quickly community input can lead to practical results. It adds official company registration numbers to organisation objects co-maintained by the RIPE NCC. This helps clearly identify organisations, especially when names are similar or identical.

The IHR BGP monitoring tool is a simple web-based application that leverages the RIS Live and BGPlay APIs to monitor your prefixes and their RPKI status.

Content and cloud platforms are no longer just the largest customers of global connectivity. They are increasingly financing and building the infrastructure itself, from submarine systems to edge and data center footprints.

Encryption between DNS resolvers and users is growing - but what about the next hop? We measure the real-world deployment of encrypted resolver-to-authoritative DNS (ADoX), finding limited, highly concentrated adoption and little support among resolvers.

DDoS mitigation often relies on BGP for "scrubbing", but how this appears in routing data is not well understood. We analyse five major providers to distinguish between always-on and on-demand protection, showing how mitigation manifests in practice and what it means for routing visibility and RPKI.
