Abstract

The Routing Policy Specification Language (RPSL), which has operationally evolved since it was standardized in 1999, has recently added a geofeed: attribute to the innet[6]num: class to reference data external to RPSL. There is now a proposal add another attribute referencing external data, prefixlen:. This document describes a more general and extensible mechanism for external references. It also tries to anticipate the RIRs evolving from RPSL to Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP).
