John,

Thanks for the info. One of the users of ARIN FTP is the IRR
community; I suggest looking at
https://github.com/irr-net/irr-net.github.io to update the irr.net
entry for ARIN with that specification.

NANOGers –

Please see the following operationally relevant information about the retirement of support for FTP at ARIN on 31 
March 2025 (forwarded here for your planning purposes.)

After that date, one will need to use HTTP/HTTPS to access the same data archives.

FYI,

From 20 September to 4 October 2024, ARIN held a consultation seeking feedback from the community on retiring FTP 
support, which serves data from ftp.arin.net. ARIN has operated an FTP service for various reports and templates 
since its inception.

After reviewing the feedback received during the consultation, ARIN plans to move forward with work required to 
support the retirement of FTP use at ARIN, and the projected retirement date is 31 March 2025.

This includes coordinating with the other Regional Internet Registries to ensure that the mirrors of the extended 
statistics data are migrated to HTTP/HTTPS, as well as determining an appropriate solution and implementing a method 
that will allow community members to run synchronization and mirroring of these data sets. All data currently 
available via FTP will continue to be available over HTTP and HTTPS.

ARIN will provide reminders at regular intervals as we approach the retirement date.

Regards,

American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
