Hi John, What happens to the route objects (and for that matter the OriginAS field in the Whois-RWS system) that were created before the IRR-online service was launched? Are the route objects (and/or OriginAS fields from the Whois-RWS system) which were registered by ARIN members for their own directly allocated ARIN resources going to be ported along to the new system (e.g. not proxy-registered objects), or do we start with a fully clean slate where it is expected that everyone re-creates their route objects in the IRR-online service before the September 2021 deadline?

Thanks! /John John Curran President and CEO American Registry for Internet Numbers Begin forwarded message: From: ARIN <info@arin.net<mailto:info@arin.net>> Subject: [arin-announce] Consultation Now Open on the Future of ARIN’s IRR Date: 8 February 2021 at 10:46:18 AM EST To: "arin-announce@arin.net<mailto:arin-announce@arin.net>" <arin-announce@arin.net<mailto:arin-announce@arin.net>> ARIN has been engaged in a multi-year project to create and deploy a new and improved Internet Routing Registry (IRR). On 10 June 2020 (https://www.arin.net/announcements/20200610-irr/), we launched IRR-online, an authenticated and web-based service designed to make it simple for users to publish routing information via ARIN’s website. At that time, the existing IRR-email system was temporarily left in place to allow organizations to continue using email-based updates to publish routing information (in the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream). On 1 February 2021 (https://www.arin.net/announcements/20210201-rn/), we deployed a RESTful API to provide a way to securely automate updates to objects in ARIN’s authenticated IRR service. With the availability of automation for ARIN’s new IRR system, we intend to retire ARIN’s previous non-authenticated, email-based IRR service at the end of September 2021. We are providing advance notice of this plan so that organizations using the non-authenticated and email-based IRR will have time to switch publication of their routing registry information to a more current solution. Similarly, by establishing a firm end date for the non-authenticated and email-based IRR, organizations making use of the outdated and non-authenticated IRR data stream can be ready for when ARIN ceases publishing the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream. The authenticated IRR is available to all ARIN resource holders that have resources covered by a signed Registration Services Agreement (RSA) or Legacy Registration Services Agreement (LRSA). Organizations with resources not currently under an RSA/LRSA that wish to use the authenticated IRR may contact ARIN’s Registration Services Department for assistance with bringing those registrations under an RSA/LRSA. We recognize that this change will have significant impacts on our customers and, as always, we’re interested in your feedback regarding this proposed transition. In particular, we would appreciate hearing from the ARIN community regarding these aspects of the proposed transition: 1. For those using ARIN’s email-based and non-authenticated IRR system, does the proposed shutdown date of 30 September 2021 provide sufficient time for migration to another IRR system? 2. For those making use of the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream, is there any reason to provide this information beyond the system shutdown date? The community feedback provided during this consultation will help inform how we move forward. Please provide comments to arin-consult@arin.net<mailto:arin-consult@arin.net>. You can subscribe to this mailing list at: http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-consult This consultation will remain open through 5:00 PM ET on Monday, 8 March.
