Dear RIPE Atlas staff, I'm a little confused. I need to add a NIC handle, you say. "What is a NIC handle? A NIC handle is the unique identifier of a person. It is basically the person's unique ID and it helps to keep different people with the same name apart from each other. Whenever a person object is referenced in another object, they are referenced by their NIC handle ("nic-hdl:") and not by their name. See an example person object" How can a handle meant for a person be used for a machine? Is this correct? Thanks, Paul Vlaar Afilias On 11/3/15 12:59 PM, RIPE Atlas (no reply) wrote: > Dear Paul Vlaar, > > We noticed that you haven't added the NIC handle for your RIPE Atlas > anchor yet.
