Use Cases for Localized Versions of the RPKI
draft-ietf-sidrops-lta-use-cases-01
Abstract
There are a number of critical circumstances where a localized
routing domain needs to augment or modify its view of the Global
RPKI. This document attempts to outline a few of them.

1. Introduction
Today RPKI-based Origin Validation, [RFC6811], relies on widespread
deployment of the Global Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI),
[RFC6480]. In the future, RPKI-based Path Validation,
[I-D.ietf-sidr-bgpsec-overview], will be even more reliant on the
Global RPKI.
But there are critical circumstances in which a local, clearly-
scoped, administrative and/or routing domain will want to augment
and/or modify their internal view of the Global RPKI.
This document attempts to lay out a few of those use cases. It is
not intended to be authoritative, complete, or to become a standard.
It merely tries to lay out a few critical examples to help frame the
issues.
2. Suggested Reading
It is assumed that the reader understands the RPKI, see [RFC6480],
the RPKI Repository Structure, see [RFC6481], Route Origin
Authorizations (ROAs), see [RFC6482], and GhostBusters Records, see
[RFC6493].
3. What is 'Local'
The RPKI is a distributed database containing certificates, CRLs,
manifests, ROAs, and GhostBusters Records as described in [RFC6481].
Policies and considerations for RPKI object generation and
maintenance are discussed elsewhere.
Like the DNS, the Global RPKI tries to present a single global view,
although only a loosely consistent view, depending on timing,

updating, fetching, etc. There is no 'fix' for this, it is not
broken, it is the nature of distributed data with distributed caches.
