ACSP Suggestion 2026.10: Allow Resource Tech Points of Contact to Manage Select RPKI/IRR Resources

Suggestion

Author: Nathanael Jean-Francois   
Submitted On: 20 August 2026

Description: Allow resource tech pocs permissions to manage RPKI/IRR for the resources that they’re linked to

Value to Community: In some organizations the POCs that oversee the org delegate day to day operations for specific resources to other technical staff that are closer to the relevant use cases. That staff responds to issues/requests as they arise, and maintain those resources. RPKI is now handled by the routing poc which is attached to the org and there is no direct link to the nets/resources under the org. As a result, resource pocs cannot create/delete ROAs for resources that they manage without going through the routing poc at the org level. This introduces a delay in routing security that at times make remediation efforts to incidents take longer. It can also cause delays in provisioning new services that use those resources. The current model is a drag on efficient security management for users, customers and the global community. The benefit of having experienced staff who are already authorized to manage resources under their purview to respond and mitigate issues with routing security faster is immeasurable but sorely needed.

Thank you for your suggestion, numbered 2026.10 upon confirmed receipt, requesting that ARIN provide the ability to delegate RPKI and IRR management at the resource level rather than at the Org ID level. We recognize the use case for organizations seeking more fine-grained operational control over RPKI and IRR management.

This suggestion aligns with our ongoing assessment of future RPKI management and permissions-related enhancements, and it will be considered as part of our internal prioritization process. This suggestion is now closed.

Thank you for participating in ARIN’s Consultation and Suggestion Process.

Regards,

ARIN
