RFC 9981 - Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) Manifest Number Handling

  • Status: Proposed Standard
  • Published: May 2026
  • Stream: IETF
  • Updates: RFC9286
  • Errata: No Errata

Abstract​

The Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) makes use of signed objects called "manifests", each of which includes a "manifest number". This document updates RFC 9286 by specifying issuer and Relying Party (RP) behaviour when a manifest number reaches the largest possible value, a situation not considered in RFC 9286.
