What you will need before you start
Log into the My Afrinic Portal https://my.afrinic.net/login with your Nic-hdl
Click on Resources > IRR
On the right Click on Route to create an IPv4 route object
On the right Click on Route6 to create an IPv6 route object
Click “ADD ROUTE” button to bring up a form for a new route object
On the “route form - new”
The “route” field, you should be able to drop down a list of the prefixes allocated to the organisation.
Remember if you are deaggregating your prefix you need to add an IRR Route/6 object for each prefix and will have to put in the more specific prefix in the route field.
Add a description for this IRR in the descr. Field. Example “Broadband Users”
The “origin” field has a drop down that will present you with your ASN. Select your ASN
The mnt-by” field is a drop down. Select your Maintainer object
A filled out form should look similar to the above.
Once you have entered all the information click on the OK button. This will pop up with a page where you will need to enter your Maintainer (MNT) Password.
Enter your password and click OK
If the password is correct it will show the successful creation of the IRR Object. If the password is incorrect it will show an unsuccessful result.
Note that the process for create a Route6 object is very similar except you will add the IPv6 prefix.
