<div class="">ARIN has been engaged in a multi-year project to create and deploy a new and improved Internet Routing Registry (IRR). On 10 June 2020 (<a href="https://www.arin.net/announcements/20200610-irr/" class="">https://www.arin.net/announcements/20200610-irr/</a>),
we launched IRR-online, an authenticated and web-based service designed to make it simple for users to publish routing information via ARIN’s website. At that time, the existing IRR-email system was temporarily left in place to allow organizations to continue
using email-based updates to publish routing information (in the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream).
<br class="">
<br class="">
On 1 February 2021 (<a href="https://www.arin.net/announcements/20210201-rn/" class="">https://www.arin.net/announcements/20210201-rn/</a>), we deployed a RESTful API to provide a way to securely automate updates to objects in ARIN’s authenticated IRR service.<br class="">
<br class="">
With the availability of automation for ARIN’s new IRR system, we intend to retire ARIN’s previous non-authenticated, email-based IRR service at the end of September 2021. We are providing advance notice of this plan so that organizations using the non-authenticated
and email-based IRR will have time to switch publication of their routing registry information to a more current solution. Similarly, by establishing a firm end date for the non-authenticated and email-based IRR, organizations making use of the outdated and
non-authenticated IRR data stream can be ready for when ARIN ceases publishing the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream.<br class="">
<br class="">
The authenticated IRR is available to all ARIN resource holders that have resources covered by a signed Registration Services Agreement (RSA) or Legacy Registration Services Agreement (LRSA). Organizations with resources not currently under an RSA/LRSA that
wish to use the authenticated IRR may contact ARIN’s Registration Services Department for assistance with bringing those registrations under an RSA/LRSA.
<br class="">
<br class="">
We recognize that this change will have significant impacts on our customers and, as always, we’re interested in your feedback regarding this proposed transition. In particular, we would appreciate hearing from the ARIN community regarding these aspects of
the proposed transition:<br class="">
<br class="">
1.<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>For those using ARIN’s email-based and non-authenticated IRR system, does the proposed shutdown date of 30 September 2021 provide sufficient time for migration to another IRR system?<br class="">
<br class="">
2.<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>For those making use of the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream, is there any reason to provide this information beyond the system shutdown date?<br class="">
<br class="">
The community feedback provided during this consultation will help inform how we move forward. Please provide comments to
<a href="mailto:arin-consult@arin.net" class="">arin-consult@arin.net</a>. You can subscribe to this mailing list at:<br class="">
