What to fix

Warning

10 of 141 announced prefixes have no ROA (RPKI not found): 41.87.176.0/21, 41.87.178.0/23, 102.201.141.0/24, 102.202.96.0/24, 102.202.97.0/24 (+5).

Without a ROA, networks cannot tell your routes from a hijack.

Fix: Create a ROA for each at your RIR portal, with origin AS33763 and a max length equal to the prefix length:

41.87.176.0/21 AS33763 max-length /21
41.87.178.0/23 AS33763 max-length /23
102.201.141.0/24 AS33763 max-length /24
102.202.96.0/24 AS33763 max-length /24
102.202.97.0/24 AS33763 max-length /24

Warning
21 of 141 announced prefixes have no IRR route object: 197.234.90.0/24, 41.218.110.0/24, 197.234.82.0/24, 197.234.83.0/24, 41.218.96.0/24 (+16).

Many networks build their prefix filters from IRR data; without route objects some of them drop the routes.

Fix: Create route (IPv4) and route6 (IPv6) objects with origin AS33763 in your RIR’s IRR database (or RADB).
```
route: 197.234.90.0/24
origin: AS33763

route: 41.218.110.0/24
origin: AS33763

route: 197.234.82.0/24

Warning

No abuse contact is published for AS33763.

Other networks send reports of spam, attacks and hacked machines to the abuse contact. Without one, reports go nowhere and blocklists may list the whole range.

Fix: Add an abuse contact to the registration: abuse-c in the RIPE database, an Abuse POC at ARIN, an abuse mailbox (IRT) at APNIC, AFRINIC or LACNIC.
