NegativeUNL

(Added by the NegativeUNL amendment.)

The NegativeUNL ledger entry type contains the current status of the Negative UNL, a list of trusted validators currently believed to be offline.

Each ledger version contains at most one NegativeUNL entry. If no validators are currently disabled or scheduled to be disabled, there is no NegativeUNL entry.

Example NegativeUNL JSON

{
  "DisabledValidators": [
    {
      "DisabledValidator": {
        "FirstLedgerSequence": 1609728,
        "PublicKey": "ED6629D456285AE3613B285F65BBFF168D695BA3921F309949AFCD2CA7AFEC16FE"
      }
    }
  ],
  "Flags": 0,
  "LedgerEntryType": "NegativeUNL",
  "index": "2E8A59AA9D3B5B186B0B9E0F62E6C02587CA74A4D778938E957B6357D364B244"
}

In addition to the common fields, the NegativeUNL ledger entry has the following fields:

NegativeUNL ID Format

The ID of the NegativeUNL entry is the hash of the NegativeUNL space key (0x004E) only. This means that the ID is always:
