Gary - It is unclear if/when such an outcome will occur, but the potential of such an endstate highlights the importance of being involved in governance activities of one (or more) of the community-based RIR organizations – as a preparatory measure should such a change occur in the future.

It’s recently come to my attention that I must stand partially corrected in what I said below. Apparently, Tata is rejecting routes that have neither RPKI nor an RIR-based IRR record created after 1993. This means that virtually all legacy holders who change IRRs or make any of a number of

The only advantage is not being subject to an RIR contract and not paying annual fees. Especially with the fee structure games ARIN has been playing over the last decade or so. I made the mistake of bringing my legacy resources under ARIN LRSA contract once upon a time. I ended up transferring

Greetings! Let's say you inherit legacy assets (ASN & IPv4 netblock), what are the first advantages that come to mind (beside not having to pay annual fees). Any disadvantages? The ones I can think of is the lack of RIR routing security services (in the ARIN region at least). No IRR, no RPKI at
