83.0.0.0/8 and 84.0.0.0/8 allocated to RIPE by IANA

As of November 14, 2003, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has allocated the netblocks 83.0.0.0/8 and 84.0.0.0/8 to RIPE NCC, the Regional Internet Registry (RIR) for Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa.
If you use bogon filters to keep bogon announcements out of your BGP routing table or to drop packets with bogon addresses, please update them to allow these new ranges. Refer to our earlier article for more information about bogons and bogon filters.
