Route-origin validation needs review

RPKI
Resource Public Key Infrastructure
ROA
Route Origin Authorisation

RPKI checks whether the network announcing the site address is authorised to originate its IP prefix.

The concept

What does this test measure?

RPKI checks whether the network announcing the site address is authorised to originate its IP prefix.

Recommended action

What to do next

  1. Confirm the affected IP, prefix and origin ASN with the hosting provider.
  2. If invalid, ask the address holder to correct the ROA or routing announcement.
  3. Do not create a ROA unless you control the address allocation.

How to verify the fix

Check the same prefix and ASN with an independent RPKI validator.

Interpret carefully

When this result may be wrong

Routing data changes and multi-origin prefixes can produce temporary or provider-specific results. An unknown result is not a failure.
