What if you have a /16 as recorded by inetnum: as well as an RPKI certificate for that /16 but within the /16 there is a /24 that has been assigned to some other ASN? Can you publish a geofeed file for the /16?
What if there is no inetnum: listed for that /24 yet in the global BGP tables there is an announcement of that /24 from a different ASN - would you still accept the geofeed announcement for the /16 based on inetnum: and RPKI cert?
ASNs and BGP announcements do not come into play. If a /16 inetnum has a geofeed link, the pointed file can specify entries covering the /16. If a /24 inetnum with geofeed link exists, this takes priority for that /24 portion. RPKI signature (optional) can be used -after- the inetnum hierarchy is resolved to verify ownership of the prefix.
