This is what I was thinking.

There would need to be an overlap otherwise there could potentially be a disruption.

I guess a couple of questions on exactly how the process would work-

Would ARIN require the org to re-request hosted access with a new key pair (the key to sign the ROA requests)? - ideally, no. A new resource certificate should be generated (assuming the org was in good standing)

During the overlap period, would the org be asked which hosted resource certificate to use? - I don't see a value in that.  If more than one resource certificate exists, use the one with the longest validity period.

Would there be a notification of the hosted resource certificate expiring? Ideally, yes.  This raises the question about notification of expiration of individual ROAs, which may be a different discussion.


Thank you.

Hi Andrew

That was a good question – one that merited a bit of research on our part. 
Here’s what we have.

Yes, ROAs can not be created with dates past the expiration of the hosted 
certificate.

As for what to do when the time approaches where the hosted cert needs to be 
renewed, we are wondering what you (and others) would prefer as a way going 
forward?

Thanks,
Mark

    Greetings:

    A question came up at an Internet2 meeting concerning hosted RPKI.
    Specifically- what happens at the expiration of the Hosted Certificate?

    I see that the hosted certificate has a 10-year validity period, and
    ROAs can not be created with dates past the expiration of the Hosted
    Certificate.

    When the expiration of this certificate is approaching, what is the
    procedure?  Do we need to re-request Hosted Access? Regenerate ROAs?
    Will there be an overlap period where both the expiring and new
    certificates & ROAs will both be valid (to avoid any gaps in coverage)?

    Thank you.
