[routing-wg] New management interface for Resource Certification (RPKI)

Dear colleagues,

Today, we are proud to launch the new management interface for Resource Certification (RPKI):
https://certification.ripe.net/ (LIR Portal log-in required)

This release marks the third major overhaul of the system since its launch in 2011. All of the user experiences and feedback we received from you since the initial launch have helped shape this new interface.

While the previous interface focused on helping new users get started with the system, the new interface incorporates functionality to help existing users solve problems using sensible defaults and best practices. We also managed to simplify the interface even further, reducing it from three pages to one in a fresh new look. 

You can watch a quick tour of the new interface here:

I would like to stress that this release is not the conclusion of our work to improve the RPKI interface. We made a conscious decision to not implement every possible feature but to use this as a foundation to expand the functionality based on your needs and input.

For example, a requested feature we would like to incorporate is the ability for users to keep their RIPE Database ROUTE objects synchronised
with their ROAs, thereby providing a single location for easy routing management and monitoring.

We are eager to hear your feedback on the new interface. User input is vital as we continue to simplify resource management and improve the experience for LIR Portal users. If you have comments or suggestions for improved features, please let me know by responding to this mail or by voicing your opinion on the Routing Working Group mailing list <routing-wg at ripe.net>.

Kind regards,

Alex Band
