What is everyone using for subdelegating IPv4 space internally - looking
for an *ease of use* tool - something that would require low maintenance
and can be delegated to entry-level NOC staff...

The RIPE LIR wg discussed the development of such a tool some months
back (+ at a recent tools BoF + on the RIPE ipmt-dev mailing list)
and silence since, until the following recent post:
I agree. It is not all that difficult to build such a system but making sure the people using it properly understand what information they need from the customer to ensure that the assignment is properly justified is another matter. I don't think this is a task for entry level NOC staff where churn might be high and understanding low. They are probably also not that good at telling the customer no, they are more interested in the customer going away (happy).
