SWIP : The Shared Whois Project or SWIP is the standard used to submit, maintain and update information to ensure up-to-date and efficient maintenance of Whois records. The process updates WHOIS to contain information regarding what organization is using a specific Ip address, or a specific block of addresses. Additionally, it provides means to track the use of an organization’s current allocations of IP addresses, so that additional allocation of IP addresses may be justified and usage reports or case studies may be done. .”]
SWIP must be used within seven days of any reassignment of an IP address space to a downstream customer to:
- Provide new reassignments of blocks of eight or more IP addresses
- Delete existing reassignments, or
