The way I understand http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sidr-pfx-validate-08, if there is a valid ROA that matches a route, and a valid AS0 ROA that also covers the route, the route will be considered VALID. AS0 ROAs don't "trump" other valid ROAs. > >Perhaps the underlying operational problem where A is not quite sure yet >of C's status could be better addressed by section 4.9.4 of the CPS - if >A has been convinced that G is the current holder of the resources, A >could register the change of holding, but include in their CPS that they >may provide a grace period for revocation on a case by case basis. > >(If A has not been convinced that G is the current holder of the >resources, then delivering packets to G for those resources would not be >a positive engineering outcome, it would be deliberately mis-directing >packets, which the RPKI is intended to prevent!) > > Byron, speaking only for myself > dougm -- Doug Montgomery Mgr.
