Dear all,
Here is the Secretariat impact assessment for proposal "prop-138-v001:
Restricting AS-ID in ROA".
APNIC notes the proposed restriction of creating ROAs with any
unallocated, private and reserved ASNs,
to stop Members creating bogon ROAs in the global routing table.
This proposal would require changes to the website content, procedure
documents, training material,
and registry systems.
If this proposal reaches consensus, implementation may be completed
within 3-6 months.
Clarifications required:
1. Since the route management interface in MyAPNIC (Member Portal)
permits Members to create both route objects and ROAs
with arbitrary ASNs, should this proposal be extended to include
restricting of AS-ID in route objects as well?
2. Does this proposal requires the deletion of all existing ROAs
referencing unallocated, private, and reserved ASNs?
Regards,
Sunny

prop-138-v001: Restricting AS-ID in ROA
-------------------------------------------------------
Proposer: Aftab Siddiqui (aftab.siddi...@gmail.com)
1. Problem statement
--------------------
RFC6482 - A Profile for Route Origin Authorisations (ROAs) defines the
content of a ROA and one of the field is called "asID" Autonomous
System Identifier. It is defined in the RFC as "The asID field
contains the AS number that is authorised to originate routes to the
given IP address prefixes."
asID is an Integer value and the RFC doesn't restrict the range of
numbers which can be placed here but technically only allocated ASNs
should only be allowed to be added as "asID" or "Origin AS". APNIC ROA
management system allows any number between 0 - 4294967295, which
includes many ranges of Private ASNs, Reserved ASNs and unallocated
ASNs as well. This may lead to creating ROAs with Origin AS which
should not be in the global routing table.
2. Objective of policy change
-----------------------------
Restrict APNIC members to create ROAs with private, reserved or
unallocated ASN.
3. Situation in other regions
-----------------------------
In process of verifying this information.
4. Proposed policy solution
---------------------------
Route Origin Authorisation (ROA) is an RPKI object signed by a prefix
holder authorising origination of said prefix from an origin AS
specified in said ROA. It verifies whether an AS is authorised to
announce a specific IP prefix or not. ROA contains 3 mandatory fields
Prefix, Origin AS and Maxlength.
Prefix: The prefix you would like to originate from the specified ASN.
IPv4 and IPv6 Prefixes listed under "Internet Resources" on My APNIC
portal can be only be used here.
Origin AS: The authorised ASN which can originate the "Prefix". The
origin AS can only be from the IANA specified range and MUST not
contain an ASN from:
- 23456 # AS_TRANS RFC6793
- 64496-64511 # Reserved for use in docs and code RFC5398
- 64512-65534 # Reserved for Private Use RFC6996
- 65535 # Reserved RFC7300
- 65536-65551 # Reserved for use in docs and code RFC5398
- 65552-131071 # Reserved
- 4200000000-4294967294 # Reserved for Private Use RFC6996
- 4294967295 # Reserved RFC7300
And any IANA unallocated ASN.
5. Advantages / Disadvantages
-----------------------------
Advantages:
This will help APNIC members avoid mistakenly creating unnecessary
Bogon ROAs.
Disadvantages:
Overhead in implementing Origin AS check.
6. Impact on resource holders
-----------------------------
APNIC has to request members to delete existing Bogon ROAs, as of 5th
August 2021 there are around 30+ Bogon ROAs of APNIC delegated resources.
7. References
-------------
None.
