This work has been succesfully completed. The RIS now supports 4-byte
ASNs.

We have also configured a 4-byte ASN beacon: a route originating from a
4-byte ASN. The prefix is 84.205.88.0/24 and it originates from AS3.7.
AS3.7 peers with our route collector on the AMS-IX, from where the route
is announced to all our peers.
No hosts are configured in this prefix.
