Change to the Trust Anchor Locator (TAL) for ARIN

Posted: Thursday, 16 January 2025

Effective 16 January 2025, ARIN has updated the ARIN TAL to ensure compatibility with Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) validators. The only updates to the TAL are new remarks regarding disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations concerning its use. There have been no changes to the Trust Anchor Key, therefore no action is required by operators running validators loaded with the last available version. This updated ARIN TAL can be found here.

ARIN would like to acknowledge Job Snijders for his invaluable input, cooperation, and time in assisting with the update of the ARIN TAL. Job has provided ARIN solid feedback on our Internet Routing Registry and RPKI services over time.

If you have any questions or issues, please email routing.security@arin.net
