There are currently 5 RIRs in operation:
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) delegates Internet resources to the RIRs, and in turn, the RIRs follow their regional policies for further sub-delegation of resources to their customers, which include Internet Service Provider s and end-user organizations. Collectively, the RIRs participate in the Number Resource Organization (NRO) {Link without Title} formed as a body to represent their collective interests, undertake joint activities, and coordinate RIR activities globally. The NRO has entered into an agreement with ICANN for the establishment of the Address Supporting Organisation (ASO), which undertakes coordination of global IP addressing policies within the ICANN framework.
