About inetnum country_code

Hello.

Two-letter country code in inetnum should be same as ASN which we'll set BGP session to announce IP prefix? Any regulations for that? Does someone check that inetnums have valid country code? Does it matter really for some serious thing?

    No one checks the country codes in inetnums. All companies that need the actual subnet location will use MaxMind instead.

    tbh even Cloudflare ditched away from that shithole to IPInfo :joy:

    The two-letter country code should be set to the country from which you are announcing the prefix.

    For real IP GEO, use geofeed.txt :smile:
