What to fix

  1. Warning

    1 of 12 announced prefixes have no ROA (RPKI not found): 192.96.24.0/21.

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

    Fix: Create a ROA for each at your RIR portal, with origin AS6083 and a max length equal to the prefix length:

    192.96.24.0/21 AS6083 max-length /21

    Open in RPKI / ROA validator Guide

  2. Warning

    No abuse contact is published for AS6083.

    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

  3. 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.
