Yeah, I was going to post this earlier but reading Damian's email prompted
me to get around to it.
So, what is a NZ IP?
Is it?
-An IP delegated by a RIR for use by an NZ organisation?
-An IP that appears on peering exchanges in NZ?
-An IP that appears in domestic tables offered by "domestic transit"
providers?
-An IP that is sourced by a NZ ASN? And what are NZ ASNs?
-An IP that GeoIP shows is in NZ?
All of those seem like good definitions of an NZ IP to me but they are all
very different.
Cheers
Dave

Bigalownz,
Browsing to the folder on the APNIC server has a readme file that indicates that particular file is deprecated in favour of ftp://ftp.apnic.net/public/apnic/stats/apnic/delegated-apnic-latest.
Also be wary this report is a list of the country of allocation and won't indicate where it is used. For example, there are some an Australian service providers using some of their ranges in New Zealand.
It still works currently as a very coarse indication, but I'd be wary using it for geolocation - especially if you're using it to control access to some content. Out of curiousity, what are you planning on using the information for?
Cheers, - Damian

Hi bigalownz,
I wrote a Puppet module that you can use to pull IP address lists from various registries. If you’re using Puppet, it means you can get an array of all the IPs for a specific region (such as NZ) for use in configuration files or resources.
https://github.com/jethrocarr/puppet-rirs
If you’re not using Puppet, the good news is that it’s almost entirely Ruby, so you could take a look at the function and adapt it very quickly to be a standalone script.
