Support with sources of IANA, AFRINIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC and RIPE NCC for data, and constraints that the number is a 32-bit unsigned integer between the range 0 and 4294967296 inclusive. If possible, reserved ASNs should also be added as constraints to prevent their use. Pixeldomain (talk) 07:02, 17 January 2017 (UTC)- Support - however, the domain statement is wrong, any organization can have an ASN, it's required for a network to be multi-homed under the BGP protocol, I believe. So many universities for instance have them. ArthurPSmith (talk) 13:54, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
- Support but I agree with @ArthurPSmith: in that the domain should be broader, i.e. organization (Q43229) so I've updated the property proposal. Also added a subject item to this proposal and marked it as ready. Dhx1 (talk) 13:07, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
