Reminder - ARIN Will Retire the Use of FTP on 31 March 2025

Posted: Thursday, 30 January 2025

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 is moving forward with work required to support the retirement of FTP use at ARIN, and the projected retirement date is 31 March 2025. This is the 60-day notice of this change.

ARIN is 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 continue to provide reminders at regular intervals as we approach the retirement date.

Regards,

American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
