Hi, We plan to establish a local/private IRR in order to control the RS in our local/private IX, but we are quite puzzled by the relationship of the local IRR and RADB. Can anyone answer my following question ? 1. Is partial database ok, and enough ? Because we run only a domestic IX, so i think we need only maintain the RPSL database of our domestic ISP, and we need not mirror the 5 standard IRRs, such as RADB, CW, RIPE, RPSL database. 2. The relationship between our local IRR, and standard IRRs. Once we establish the local IRR via IRRd of MERIT, shall we register all the data of local RPSL database in one of the global registries,such as RADB ? Will RADB accept our local IRR, and start to mirror our data ? Or our data exist only in our local/private database, and no one care about us (it seems this scenario is little away from the spirit of global IRR) regards, Yu Ning Networking Dep.
