Epic: productionize LIR sponsoring (ASN + PI IP space) #192

Description

@v0l

Tracking issue for turning the LIR services product (#39) into a fulfillable, RIPE-compliant offering.

Already done (in progress on branch, not yet PR)

  • ✅ Registry clients: RegistryProvider / RpkiProvider traits + RipeDb (RIPE whois route/route6) + Krill (delegated RPKI ROAs) — lnvps_api_common/src/registry/.
  • ✅ IP-range fulfilment: IpRangeProvisioner (CIDR sub-allocation, allocation on payment, origin-ASN configure/re-home, expiry teardown) behind optional registry/RPKI providers; thin IpRangeLineItemHandler.
  • ✅ ip_range_subscription.origin_asn as mutable state on the assignment row (not the immutable line-item config); PATCH /api/v1/ip_range/{id}.
  • ✅ ASN DB foundation: asn_subscription table + AsnSubscription/AsnSubscriptionStatus model + traits + mysql + mock + resource resolution.

Remaining work

Key decisions

  • KYC via Stripe Identity — RIPE requires End-User identity due diligence for sponsored resources; delegating to Stripe Identity shifts forgery liability and avoids building IDV. Sponsored ASN/PI is a deliberate KYC exception to LNVPS otherwise pseudonymous model.
  • Delegated RPKI via Krill — RIPE hosted RPKI is LIR-only and cannot sign sponsored space.
  • RPKI is optional — ROV is not universal; route object (IRR) is the more commonly required artifact.
  • Fulfilment gate — no RIR request / aut-num / route object for sponsored PI until KYC verified (LIR: End-User KYC via Stripe Identity #188) + signed agreement on file (LIR: persist & bilaterally sign the Sponsoring LIR Agreement #189).

⚠️ Not legal advice — confirm the agreement clauses, e-signature tier (eIDAS), and identity-verification approach with counsel and RIPE NCC before going live.
