TIMELY/IMPORTANT - Approximately 40 hours until potentially significant routing changes (re: Retirement of ARIN Non-Authenticated IRR scheduled for 4 April 2022)

Sat Apr 2 21:09:58 UTC 2022

NANOGers -

As previously reported here, ARIN will be shutting down the ARIN-NONAUTH IRR database on Monday, 4 April 2022 at 12:00 PM ET.

It is quite likely that some network operators will see different route processing as a result of this change, as validation against the ARIN-NONAUTH IRR database will not longer be possible.

Please be aware of this upcoming event and make alternative arrangements if you are presently relying on upon routing objects in the ARIN-NONAUTH IRR database.

Thanks!

Subject: [arin-announce] UPDATE: Retirement of ARIN Non-Authenticated IRR rescheduled for 4 April 2022
Date: 28 January 2022 at 9:01:07 PM GMT+4
To: "arin-announce at arin.net<mailto:arin-announce at arin.net>" <arin-announce at arin.net<mailto:arin-announce at arin.net>>

This announcement is to inform you that the retirement of the ARIN non-authenticated Internet Routing Registry (IRR) has been rescheduled to 4 April 2022 at 12:00 PM EST. After this time, users will no longer be able to create, update, or delete records in the ARIN-NONAUTH database, and the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream will no longer be available in Near Real Time Mirroring (NRTM) or via FTP or Whois Port 43. This date change is being made in order to ensure that the first day after retirement does not fall on a Friday.

The following information is from the initial announcement:

ARIN has been engaged in a multi-year project to create and deploy a new and improved Internet Routing Registry (IRR). As a result of these efforts, ARIN now provides users with the ability to create, update, and delete objects in ARIN’s authenticated IRR database using ARIN Online or ARIN’s RESTful API. Unfortunately, use of ARIN’s previous non-authenticated email-based IRR service actually increased after ARIN released its authenticated IRR, in opposition to the outcome ARIN anticipated when improving its IRR.

On 8 February 2021, ARIN held a consultation to solicit input on the retirement of ARIN’s non-authenticated email-based IRR service. This retirement was originally scheduled for 30 September 2021. Based on community input, the proposed date for the ARIN-NONAUTH retirement was delayed to 31 March 2022 to allow more transition time for users. We also notified by email Points of Contact (POCs) of organizations who have objects in the ARIN-NONAUTH database of the retirement date and offered them our assistance with the transition.

If you have questions about this transition or need assistance, you can contact us by:

• submitting an Ask ARIN ticket or chat with us using your ARIN Online account
• emailing the Routing Security Team at routing.security at arin.net<mailto:routing.security at arin.net>
• contacting the Registration Services Help Desk by phone Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM ET at +1.703.227.0660
