Re: [sidr] Protocol Action: 'BGP Prefix Origin Validation State Extended Community' to Proposed Standard (draft-ietf-sidr-origin-validation-signaling-11.txt)

Hi!

This document is already in AUTH48.  I don’t think we need to make any changes to the document, but if we do, we need to decide very soon.

The document doesn’t say anything about what should be done with this extended community, except to say that “speakers that receive this validation state can configure local policies allowing it to influence their decision process.”  IOW, there is no expected default processing of the validation state.

If the community is received and the router also has validation information, then I agree that the extended community is not needed…but I think that action is outside the scope of this document.

Thanks!

Alvaro.

    What happens if a BGP speaker validates a route in its own RPKI database
    and finds it to be either Valid or Invalid (not NotFound) and also receives
    the extended community that specifies a different validation state?

    I don't see that condition covered in the draft.
    I would say to ignore the extended community.

    Thanks,
    Jakob.
