Operators publish prefixlen locations through inetnum: objects coordinated with an RIR, NIR, or LIR. prefixlen files MUST be published and fetched using HTTPS [RFC9110]. Consumers MUST ignore data outside the referring inetnum: object's address range. Unsigned prefixlen files MAY be referenced by multiple inetnum: objects, but signed files are subject to the Section 6 signing model.

prefixlen fetchers MUST NOT do frequent real-time lookups. Servers SHOULD send HTTP Expires [RFC9111] to signal refetch time. If Expires or Cache-Control is present, clients MUST honor it. Without such headers, collectors SHOULD NOT fetch more frequently than weekly.
