<div class="gmail-m_-6268663168625075603moz-cite-prefix">I'm writing to support the sunsetting
of the rwhois protocol as a method for ARIN members to document
reallocation and reassignment records. <br>
<br>
That doesn't mean this year or next year, but I believe we should
set a timeline for deprecating this protocol. Perhaps a date of
2022 would be reasonable. (Yes, some organizations will not do
the work despite the 4 years of time to do it, but a shorter time
frame would also be unacceptable to some)<br>
<br>
I have seen those who have posted on this consultation noting that
"rwhois works and isn't broken so don't fix it." While I will
agree that it is "technically" not broken, I believe that it is
operationally broken. <br>
<br>
These are some of the reasons why I believe we should move on to
something better. Any by better, I mean moving to records stored
in the ARIN database (SWIP) or RDAP.<br>

-There is no automatic referral, so when most people query ARIN
whois they don't know there is potentially another more specific
record and even if they are aware, how to do rwhois is not "easy"
for many users. Yes its easy for engineers and some operators,
but there are many users of "whois" data for whom this is a
barrier too high. Could we invest in lots of training for rwhois,
yes, but we will always be behind on this as long as its not a

-As was noted in the most recent ARIN meeting, law enforcement

-ARIN (in possible collaboration with other RIRS) should develop
an RDAP package for those who like to host their own, distributed
database. The new package should support bulk retrieval of
records to assist in data collection and analysis. (Also it was
noted in the most recent ARIN meeting that there are differences
today in how the different RIRs are reporting fields/data via
RDAP. It would be good for the RIRs in collaboration with each
other and other organizations that want to run RDAP servers for IP
number resources to work to create a standard met of fields which
are required for IP number resource records, along with other
optional fields for additional data) <br>

I'd like to ask if ARIN staff can confirm some of these details
with data from the ARIN's database and operational practices.
Specifically if ARIN could provide the following details about how
rwhois is being operated today I believe it would inform the
community in this consultation process.<br>
<br>
1) Number of orgs which have IPv4 or IPv6 resources and a rwhois
record on their org-id.<br>
<br>
2) Number of IPv4 and IPv6 blocks with a rwhois server under the
org-id records<br>
<br>
3) Number of /24 IPv4 equivalents covered by the above records<br>
<br>
4) Number of /32 IPv6 equivalents covered by the above records<br>
<br>
5) Total number of unique rwhois servers<br>
<br>
6) Percent of rwhois servers which are online (complete a tcp
connection<br>
accept a string and respond with some text)<br>
<br>
7) Percent of rwhois server who appear to respond with a valid
record<br>
for an address within each allocated block<br>

requested via the ARIN Consultation and Suggestion Process
(ACSP) to open a consultation to generate discussion about the
possibility of sun-setting RWhois support by the ARIN
organization. ARIN's initial response to the ACSP indicated we
would open a consultation following the completion of the
Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) specification inside
the IETF processes. This work has been completed and the RFC has
been published. ARIN took the additional step of implementing
RDAP inside its own directory services offering with referral
support to the other Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). With
this work complete, we are following through with the formalized
request to open a consultation on this topic.<br>

In accordance with ARIN's Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM),
Organizations are required to report certain types of customer
network sub-delegation information (reassignments and
reallocations) to ARIN. Currently there are two reporting
methods available. Both are delineated in the NRPM and supported
by ARIN's production services. There is also a third possible
method of reporting sub-delegation information that could be
made available, but is not yet offered.<br>

own organization's Whois records. In order for a user of ARIN's
directory services to view sub-delegation information hosted by

RDAP: The five RIRs currently use RDAP for referrals to each
other's Whois data. Although the specification language of the
RDAP could allow it to be used as a third method for the
reporting of sub-delegation information to ARIN, it is not
currently offered as an option. In order to make this option
available, associated registry software would need to be
created. This possible method would allow users of ARIN's
directory services to view sub-delegation information available
on customer hosted RDAP servers in an automated fashion. This
RDAP method may also be viewed as redundant to RWhois.<br>

<br>
ARIN expects to continue offering Method 1 (SWIP) into the
foreseeable future. As previously described, we are acting on a
formal suggestion to consult with the community about the future
of RWhois support, and also have potential options with RDAP.<br>
</p>

Of the three sub-delegation reporting methods listed
(SWIP, RWhois, RDAP), which should ARIN support in the future?<br>

The existing RESTful API allows users to report (SWIP)
one sub-delegation at a time to be added to ARIN Whois. Should
ARIN add bulk-upload features to the RESTful API?<br>
</p>

As noted, RWhois servers are not referred to in an
automated fashion when users query ARIN Whois. Should ARIN
automate referrals to RWhois servers from ARIN's Whois service?<br>
</p>

If ARIN was to allow the reporting of network
sub-delegation information using RDAP, associated enabling
software would be required. Should ARIN enable this method by
creating an RDAP software suite that would allow ARIN
registrants to run RDAP service locally?<br>
<br>
The feedback you provide during this consultation will help
inform decisions about software tools and support for the
reporting of network sub-delegation information to ARIN in the
future. Thank you for your participation in the ARIN
