What to fix

  1. Problem

    2 of 28 announced prefixes are RPKI invalid: 196.175.0.0/24, 196.175.4.0/24.

    A ROA covers them but does not allow this origin or prefix length, so networks that filter (most large ones do) drop these routes.

    Fix: Fix the ROAs (origin AS and max length) at your RIR, or stop announcing the routes.

    Open in RPKI / ROA validator Guide

  2. Warning

    No IPv6 prefixes announced.

    Networks without IPv6 force their users through NAT64 or leave them unreachable from IPv6-only networks.

    Fix: Get an IPv6 allocation from your RIR (usually free with your IPv4 membership) and announce it.

  3. Warning

    8 of 28 announced prefixes have no ROA (RPKI not found): 41.190.88.0/22, 41.215.168.0/21, 41.215.174.0/23, 66.37.100.0/24, 196.172.0.0/23 (+3).

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

    Fix: Create a ROA for each at your RIR portal, with origin AS37030 and a max length equal to the prefix length:

    41.190.88.0/22 AS37030 max-length /22
41.215.168.0/21 AS37030 max-length /21
41.215.174.0/23 AS37030 max-length /23
66.37.100.0/24 AS37030 max-length /24
196.172.0.0/23 AS37030 max-length /23
197.191.0.0/21 AS37030 max-length /21
197.191.0.0/24 AS37030 max-length /24
197.191.2.0/23 AS37030 max-length /23

    Open in RPKI / ROA validator Guide

  4. Warning

    4 of 28 announced prefixes have no IRR route object: 66.37.100.0/24, 196.175.0.0/24, 196.175.4.0/24, 197.191.2.0/23.

    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 AS37030 in your RIR’s IRR database (or RADB).

    route: 66.37.100.0/24
origin: AS37030

route: 196.175.0.0/24
origin: AS37030

  5. Warning

    No abuse contact is published for AS37030.

    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.

    Open in WHOIS / RDAP lookup

  6. Warning

    No IRR as-set is listed.

    Peers and route servers build prefix filters from the as-set. Without one they fall back to the AS number alone, which breaks as soon as you have customers.

    Fix: Create an as-set in your RIR’s IRR database and add it to your PeeringDB record.

    Open in PeeringDB lookup

  7. Warning

    No public NOC, policy or technical contact.

    Other networks use these addresses to set up peering and to reach you during an incident.

    Fix: Add a role contact (for example noc@ or peering@ an address you monitor) with visibility Public.
