We need at least these things to exist: o an accurate mapping of resource (netblock/asn) to authorized-entity (RIR/NIR/LIR/Customer/...) o a system to manage this data for our routing equipment
see all the sidr documents in last call to go from i-ds to rfcs. oh, you co-chair sidr :)
yes, sorry I should have been more open ... i do co-chair (with sandy murphy) the sidr-wg at the IETF.
o protocol enhancements that can be used to help propagate the mapping information or at the least help a router programmaticly understand if a resource is being used by the authorized entity
see draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-rtr-07
o routing software that can digest the enhanced data
in test. rumors of going normal release from at least one vendor in q2
o routing hardware that won't crumple under the weight of (what seems like) heavier weight routing protocol requirements
actually, the formal rpki-based origin-validation stuff is measured to take *less* cpu, a lot less, than ACLs
CPU + RAM both parts of the vector matter. (but you knew this) Some of the interesting data would, I think, be good for ops folks to see more openly, things that may actually affect their purchasing and design decisions even! Danny's had some good presentation material about changes in spec/implementations that have altered drastically the update load on devices in actual networks.
There is, of course, some risk with this model and we should take the time to accept/discuss that as well.
some guidance toward ameliorating the risks are in <draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-origin-ops-00.txt>.
input from ops into all this stuff would be most welcome.
yes (as the co-chair) yes (as the OP... more input/thought/discussion) and looking at the: <https://www.arin.net/about_us/bot/index.html> it looks like the BoT is due to have a meeting either this week or next? (they seem to always have one in the first week or two of the year?) so again speak up here AND perhaps send a note the BoT or your ARIN Rep's way "now". -Chris
