Due to excessive requests on the WHOIS web interface (https://www.afrinic.net/whois), the proper function of the service is severely impacted. We are exploring measures to restore the service to its normal operation.
In the meantime, we encourage using:
The WHOIS command-line client or the email method. You can get the installation files at https://ftp.afrinic.net/db/.
RDAP (https://rdap.afrinic.net/rdap)
Myafrinic (https://my.afrinic.net) for IP Resource Members.
Further WHOIS support material can be accessed here:
