With scale, the need to automate even the simplest operations is important, but even more critical is the ability to quickly interact with more complex operations such as policy-based controls. In order to enable applications to have access to and control over information in the Internet's routing system, we need a publically documented interface specification. The interface needs to support real-time, transaction-based interactions using efficient data models and encodings. Furthermore, the interface must support a variety of use cases including those where verified control feed-back loops are needed. This document expands upon these statements of requirements to provide a problem statement for an interface to the Internet routing system.}, }
