[arin-tech-discuss] Erroneous "IP range overlaps with existing network(s)." errors

[Tim Garrison]

Greetings,

For the last 3 days, any attempt to reassign a subnet with the RESTful API results in the following error:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<error xmlns="http://www.arin.net/regrws/core/v1">
    <additionalInfo/>
    <code>E_ENTITY_VALIDATION</code>
    <components>
        <component>
            <message>IP range overlaps with existing network(s).</message>
            <name>startAddress</name>
        </component>
    </components>
    <message>Payload entity failed to validate; see component messages for details.</message>
</error>

The subnet in question here is 173.193.174.104/29. I have verified that there are no other subnet registrations in the adjacent space (173.193.174.0/25 was analyzed and found to contain only subnets in "Direct Allocation".

My sample reassign payload is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<net xmlns="http://www.arin.net/regrws/core/v1">
    <version>4</version>
    <comment></comment>
    <netBlocks>
        <netBlock>
            <type>S</type>
            <startAddress>173.193.174.104</startAddress>
            <cidrLength>29</cidrLength>
        </netBlock>
    </netBlocks>
    <customerHandle>C03321089</customerHandle>
    <netName>NET-173-193-174-104</netName>
    <parentNetHandle>NET-173-192-0-0-1</parentNetHandle>
</net>

Has anything changed recently that would be causing this error? Is there some other underlying issue causing this?

Thanks,
