Resource records transferred to APNIC Whois Database

For historical reasons, some IP address ranges and AS numbers used by networks in the Asia Pacific region have been registered in databases other than the APNIC Whois Database.

To best serve the interests of the holders of these historically delegated resources, the records describing these resources are being transferred to the APNIC Whois Database.

The transfer of records from AUNIC to APNIC was completed in July 2001. The transfer of Internic records held in the ARIN was completed in February 2005.
