SIDR Operations
charter-ietf-sidrops-00-00

The global deployment of RPKI, Origin Validation of BGP announcements
and BGPSEC, collectively called SIDR, is underway, creating an Internet
Routing System consisting of SIDR-aware and non-SIDR-aware networks.
This deployment must be properly handled to avoid the division of
the Internet into separate networks, ensuring as secure a routing
system as possible, through encouraged deployment of the SIDR technologies.

The SIDR Operations Working Group (sidr-ops) develops guidelines for
the operation of SIDR-aware networks, and provides operational guidance
on how to deploy and operate SIDR technologies in new and existing networks.

The main focuaess of the SIDR Operations Working Group are to:
o discuss deployment and operational issues related to SIDR technologies
in networks which are part of the global routing system.
o gather and discuss deployment experiences with the SIDR technologies in
networks which are part of the global routing system.

The goals of the sidr-ops working group are:

1. Solicit input from network operators to identify
   operational issues with a SIDR-aware Internet, and determine solutions
   or workarounds to those issues.

2. Solicit input from network operators to identify
   operational interaction issues with the non-SIDR-aware Internet,
   and determine solutions or workarounds to those issues.

3. Operational solutions for identified issues should be developed
   in sidr-ops and documented in informational or BCP documents.

These documents should document SIDR operational experience, including
interactions with non-SIDR-aware networks, the interfaces between SIDR-aware
and non-SIDR-aware networks, and the continued operational/security impacts
from non-SIDR-aware networks.

SIDR operational and deployment issues with Interdomain Routing Protocols
are the primary responsibility of the IDR working gruop. However, the
sidr-ops Working Group may provide input to that group, as needed, and
cooperate with that group in reviewing solutions to SIDR operational and
deployment problems.

Future work items within this scope will be adopted by the Working
Group only if there is a substantial expression of interest from
the community and if the work clearly does not fit elsewhere in the
IETF.

There must be a continuous expression of interest for the Working
Group to work on a particular work item. If there is no longer
sufficient interest in the Working Group in a work item, the item
may be removed from the list of Working Group items.
