They gave no particular reason. I figured I'd ask ya'all before I started to push back and use phrases like 'silly', 'ridiculous', and 'pointless' in my argument to them. Thanks, Craig

Sounds ridiculous...radb mirrors arins db, I don't see why they are trying to force you to use radb.
You can query whois.radb.net and you will be able to see your arin objects...
Did they give you a reason on WHY you should have to use RADB?

Hi,
I recently ran across a situation where a large ISP only accepts IRR entries generated by RADB to build their path filters. I use the ARIN Routing Registry. Is this a common practice? Should I convert over to RADB?
Thanks, Craig
