Secure Your BGP Routes with RPKI/ROA
Protect your IP prefixes from route hijacking with properly configured Route Origin Authorizations. We handle the entire RPKI setup so your BGP announcements are cryptographically validated.
Free RPKI/ROA Setup for IPv4Center Lessees
When you lease IPv4 addresses through IPv4Center, RPKI/ROA configuration is included at no additional cost. We automatically create and maintain ROA records for all leased prefixes, ensuring your routes are always secure.
Why RPKI/ROA Matters
Route Origin Authorization is the industry standard for securing BGP routing
Route Hijack Prevention
RPKI/ROA cryptographically binds IP prefixes to authorized ASNs, preventing malicious or accidental route hijacking that can redirect your traffic.
Improved Routing Security
Major networks worldwide now perform Route Origin Validation. Having valid ROA records ensures your prefixes are accepted by RPKI-validating networks.
Compliance & Trust
Many peering partners and upstream providers increasingly require valid RPKI records. Proper ROA configuration demonstrates your commitment to routing security.
Automated Monitoring
We continuously monitor your ROA records for expiration, mismatches, and configuration issues, alerting you before problems impact your routing.
Multi-RIR Support
Our team handles RPKI configuration across all Regional Internet Registries — RIPE NCC, ARIN, APNIC, LACNIC, and AFRINIC.
How It Works
We handle the entire RPKI/ROA setup process from start to finish
Prefix & ASN Review
We review your IP prefixes and ASN assignments to determine the correct ROA configuration for your network.
RIR Portal Access
We access the appropriate RIR portal (RIPE, ARIN, etc.) to create or update your RPKI certificate and ROA objects.
ROA Creation
We create Route Origin Authorization objects with the correct prefix, maximum length, and origin ASN parameters.
Validation & Testing
We verify the ROA records are published correctly and validate them using multiple RPKI validators to ensure global visibility.
Ongoing Maintenance
We monitor ROA expiration dates and update records as needed when your network configuration changes.
