[arin-tech-discuss] Stale / Invalid objects in ARIN IRR

[Tim Nowaczyk]

Hey John.

We’ve had great luck getting stale info removed from the various IRRs after our acquisitions. Old Global Crossing records were the trickiest, but I eventually found a contact at Level 3 that helped me out. I might have to go through the same issues now that Century Link owns all of that. I’ve had success emailing the Merit service desk directly for removing stale RADB routes. There isn’t any IRR-driven momentum for anyone to clean up their own databases at this time.

I heard Alexander Azimov speak about BGP Route Security at NANOG 76 earlier this year. He had me convinced that draft-azimov-sidrops-aspa-verification[1] would solve most if not all of the current issues around this topic and could make the IRRs unnecessary.

Best,
Tim Nowaczyk
