USC/ISI will continue to support root service over our current IPv4 and<br>
IPv6 addresses for at least one year (until 2024-11-27) in order to<br>
provide a stable transition period while new root hints files are<br>
distributed in software and operating system packages.<br>
<br>
We are renumbering to increase the resilience of the Root Servers<br>
System by further diversifying the number of Regional Internet<br>
Registries (RIRs) that have allocated IP addresses to Root Server<br>
Operators. Our addresses will be the first in the Root Server System to<br>
have been allocated by LACNIC and our routes will be verifiable through<br>
LACNIC’s Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) Trust Anchor<br>
Location (TAL). We thank LACNIC for helping make this renumbering<br>
possible, and ARIN for supporting our prior addressing assignments.<br>
