In some cases I saw the export policy ANNOUNCE ANY, is this consistent with a particular AS behaving like the RIPE AS was its customer?
well, if i was to take that literally, that would include internal prefixes, e.g. some of p2p inter-router
Hi Randy, Thank you for your reply. I do, however, have one more question, please find it bellow. links, loopbacks, ...
What would be then the difference between this ANNOUNCE ANY policy and this other policy I have found "ANNOUNCE AS-YYY" (where AS YYY is the AS exporting its routes)? What are the ASes actually exporting in this case?
of course, taking anything from the IRR literally is naïve at best.
some years back, i asked for a *simple minimal* tagging of announcements to route views, just peer, customer, internal. it got ietfed to utter uselessness, with more crap welded on to it than envisioned in mad max.
