RPKI-Based Origin Validation Operation
draft-ietf-sidr-origin-ops-13
Abstract
Deployment of RPKI-based BGP origin validation has many operational
considerations. This document attempts to collect and present them.
It is expected to evolve as RPKI-based origin validation is deployed
and the dynamics are better understood.

Internet-Draft RPKI-Based Origin Validation Operation November 2011
1. Introduction
RPKI-based origin validation relies on widespread deployment of the
Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) [I-D.ietf-sidr-arch]. How
the RPKI is distributed and maintained globally is a serious concern
from many aspects.
The global RPKI is in very initial stages of deployment, there is no
single root trust anchor, initial testing is being done by the IANA
and the RIRs, and there is a technical testbed. It is thought that
origin validation based on the RPKI will be deployed incrementally
over the next year to five years.
Origin validation needs to be done only by an AS's border routers and
is designed so that it can be used to protect announcements which are
originated by any network participating in Internet BGP routing:
large providers, upstreams and down-streams, and by small stub/
enterprise/edge routers.
Origin validation has been designed to be deployed on current routers
without significant hardware upgrade. It should be used in border
routers by operators from large backbones to small stub/entetprise/
edge networks.
RPKI-based origin validation has been designed so that, with prudent
local routing policies, there is little risk that what is seen as
today's normal Internet routing is threatened by imprudent deployment
of the global RPKI, see Section 5.
