Can anyone point me to examples of using rtconfig to generate IOS-XR configs? Specifically prefix and as-path sets. My Google skills are coming up short. The man page for rtconfig does not mention IOS-XR but it is supposedly supported. I get no farther than 'rtconfig -config ciscoxr'.

I suggest you look at bgpq3 [1] instead, bgpq3 has support for IOS XR prefix-sets & as-path-sets. You could look into using napalm [2] to upload the resulting configurations to your routers. Kind regards, Job [1]: https://github.com/snar/bgpq3 [2]: https://github.com/napalm-automation/napalm

there's some support in the git master for irrtoolset (https://github.com/irrtoolset/irrtoolset) for XR config in rtconfig. It's been tested by at least one person. If your main use case is handling prefix lists, you would be much better off using BGPQ3. This tool is far superior to irrtoolset for handling prefix lists and will output to json which means that you can import the data directly into any scripting language you like rather than having to deal with the limited syntax supported by rtconfig.
