A National Internet Registry (NIR) is an organization that manages the allocation and registration of internet number resources, such as IP addresses and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs), within a specific country or region. NIRs operate under the framework established by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and are often affiliated with regional internet registries (RIRs) like ARIN, RIPE NCC, APNIC, LACNIC, or AFRINIC.
