Dear SwiNOGgers, and in particular those who peer with us (Switch),

we have finally gotten around to implementing the recommendation[1] to use "hierarchical" names for our as-set in the RIPE RR/DB. So instead of "AS-SWITCH", we now use "AS559:AS-SWITCH". Please update your filter generation accordingly if you peer with us.

Our PeeringDB entry[2] and AS559 policy in the RIPE DB have been updated accordingly.

Thank you & best regards,
