agreed, there's some cycle to update filters... the problem is that the source of the filter data is ... horrendous. there's no way to validate what you THINK should be there vs what IS there. there is no way to mechanically keep this data updated, to disqualify bad data and to use quality data. Auto-adding routes because your customer announces you a route is ... not a good plan. auto-adding these to the IRR which is then globally available and not-fixable by the actual origin is also 'bad'. we can do better, rpki provides a path to making that better. rpki is not all of the sidr work though. _______________________________________________ sidr mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sidr
