ARIN is committed to being a valued resource for the member community by 
providing high availability services to organizations that rely on our 
products, including critical RPKI infrastructure operated by ARIN. We want to 
ensure that ARIN and the greater RPKI community are prepared in the unlikely 
event that access to ARIN’s RPKI repository becomes unavailable. To that end, 
we encourage operators utilizing ARIN’s RPKI repository data to follow the best 
practices as described in RFC 7115 / BCP 185 – specifically falling back to 
routing on unvalidated announcements (i.e. NotFound validity state) in the 
absence of RPKI data availability.

In order to achieve this goal, ARIN intends to conduct brief (30 minute) 
unannounced maintenance during the month of July and encourages all 
organizations that take action based on RPKI route classifications to review 
their operational model before that time.

ARIN thanks you for your understanding as we take the necessary steps to keep 
our RPKI infrastructure running at peak performance, as expected by those who 
have embraced RPKI as a component to enhancing routing security. We encourage 
everyone to follow best practices in your use of RPKI so that it may become 
widely deployed in the internet community in a responsible manner.

Sincerely,

Brad Gorman
Senior Product Owner, Routing Security
American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
