That pretty much sums it up. I feel like I'm stuck reading RFC's that are too overly complex for something that seems like it shouldn't be complex. Anyone know of a quick 101 intro to routing registries with a simple example of an AS that has two upstream providers and a handful of peers and downstream AS's?

I can relate to this, having gone thru a similar process/experience fairly recently in using IRRd..
So the real question Brandon is asking..
For a newbie, how does one go about learning the basic's of IRRd.
Speaking for myself, if there is a good answer, I would welcome it.
Here is what I had to do...
1. Used Radb lookup on different AS-Set and ASN to get a feel on how others were using this resource.
2. Went thru the ARIN IRRd Tutorial / info pages on how to create records etc.
3. Did Google searches on finding some of the older NANOG presentations about IRRd.

Hi,
I really don't know where else to post this. I recently subscribed to RADB and added route objects and route6 objects for our prefixes we announce. Of course an aut-num object was created and I created a list of ASN's that are downstream customers in an as-set list. But, since this is my first time ever subscribing to a routing registry, I really don't know for sure that I'm doing everything correctly. So, I submitted an e-mail to RADB and requested that they review what I've done and to see if I'm doing it correctly. Well, the reply I received was far less than I could have ever imagined:
"RADb is a self-serve service. If you have specific questions, we can address those. However, the type of audit requested is not a part of the standard offering associated with this service."
So my question is, how am I supposed to verify that what I've done is what is supposed to be done and that I am doing this correctly?
My next question is, why would RADB offer zero support for confirming this? And lastly, why should my organization pay $500 per year to a service that is unwilling to assist in making sure their subscriber is using their service properly?
Best regards, Brandon Wade
