it is assumed any error checking was done *before* they are sent to the router. a major goal of this protocol is to relieve the router of any load. so, if field consistency is to be done, it should be in the protocols at the rpki level, e.g. at the latest when the cache receives and validates the data. randy _______________________________________________ sidr mailing list sidr@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/sidr
