Throughout its history, the XRPL Foundation has played a critical role in maintaining the security and decentralized status of the XRPL by publishing a trusted UNL. Validators and node operators are able to contribute to maintaining an up-to-date, secure, and well-managed network by updating their configurations to the new UNL, ensuring a smoother and more reliable blockchain infrastructure.
### Required Actions for Validators

Ahead of the migration date, validators and node operators need to take the following actions:
1. Update their configuration to reflect the new cryptographic public key provided by the new Foundation.
2. Restart their node to apply the updated configuration.
Failure to complete these actions may result in network disruptions, impacting connectivity and participation in consensus processes.
Detailed instructions of the actions validators and node operators are required to take are below.
Detailed instructions of the actions validators and node operators are required to take will be communicated soon.
The transition to the new XRPL Foundation marks an important step in ensuring the continued stability and security of the XRPL network. Validators and node operators play a pivotal role in this process, and their timely action is crucial for maintaining a robust and decentralized infrastructure.
As the migration from the old to the new Foundation progresses, additional support and updates will be provided on XRPL.org to ensure a seamless transition for all participants.
## Actions To Take
### Steps
If your XRP Ledger node currently trusts the UNL published by the XRP Ledger Foundation, complete the following steps to update your settings:
1. **Edit `validators.txt`**
Update the `[validator_list_keys]` section (the current endpoint remains unchanged) to replace the old key (`ED45D1840EE724BE327ABE9146503D5848EFD5F38B6D5FEDE71E80ACCE5E6E738B`) with the following:
```
[validator_list_keys]
ED42AEC58B701EEBB77356FFFEC26F83C1F0407263530F068C7C73D392C7E06FD1
```
2. **Restart `rippled`.**
After saving the changes, restart your `rippled` service. On supported platforms, you can run the following command:
```sh
sudo systemctl restart rippled.service
```
3. **Confirm the new settings**
Run:
```
/opt/ripple/bin/rippled validators
```
The output should display the updated values in the `publisher_lists` key:
```json
{
"result": {
"local_static_keys": [],
"publisher_lists": [
{
"available": true,
...
"list": [
...
],
"pubkey_publisher": "ED42AEC58B701EEBB77356FFFEC26F83C1F0407263530F068C7C73D392C7E06FD1",
"seq": 1,
"uri": "https://vl.xrplf.org",
"version": 1
},
...
]
...
}
```
As the migration from the old to the new Foundation progresses, additional support and updates will be provided on XRPL.org to ensure a seamless transition for all participants.
