Regarding a presentation of RIPE, we will run out of AS Numbers sometime between late 2010 and early 2013. The allocation rate is currently about 10-12 ASN/day. Therefore, 32bit ASN (ASN32) will be introduced. The transition phase started on 1/1/2007. After 1/1/2009, RIPE will give you ASN32 by default, after 1/1/2010 the RIR will only give an ASN32. All ISP and Carriers should be aware, to have their BGP Routers up to date. Currently, Juniper and Redback announced official support for ASN32. Today, only 15 ASN32 are assigned from RIPE. The ASN32 looks like the following: AS3.2
