[irrtoolset]other sources ?

Hello, if I use RtConfig with -h whois.ripe.net, it returns me only data from source: RIPE. I'd like it to include also data from RADB, I know that RIPE mirrors other registries' data, but I fail to understand how to use '@RtConfig set sources = "RIPE,RADB" ' ... is this the correct syntax ? Is this the right way to do it ? Thank you Pf -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pierfrancesco Caci | Network & System Administrator - INOC-DBA: 6762*PFC p.caci(a)seabone.net | Telecom Italia Sparkle - http://etabeta.noc.seabone.net/ Linux paperino 2.4.20 #1 Mon Dec 2 17:02:14 CET 2002 i686 GNU/Linux

[irrtoolset]Skipping outbound route-maps
by Jason Lixfeld 13 Oct '04

Is there a way to skip the creation of outbound route-maps? I'm using the configureRouter command in RtConfig to pull the policy from peers of an inet-rtr object. It creates outbound route-maps which are redundant because each peer in the inet-rtr object is a member of a peer-group as specified in the actual router config (which does not (read: I don't want it to) get overwritten by RtConfig). I don't want RtConfig to supersede what's specified in the peer-group. An example if a peer: from the inet-rtr object looks like so: peer: BGP4 1.2.3.4 asno(AS1234) Any suggestions?

[irrtoolset]AS-path filters in RtConfig
by Tomek Babik 12 Oct '04

12 Oct '04

Dear all, Can anybody tell me what has changed in the version 4.8.x (compared to 4.7.x) that such input: @RtConfig aspath_access_list filter <AS8308$> ends up in: Error: badly formed AS_path filter. It worked in the previous version. I looked into RFC2622, and there is an example of the filter: <AS2$> Does it need any quotation or something? Did anybody have this problem? Thanks --PE

Dear Colleagues, [apologies for duplicate postings] As a service to its members the RIPE NCC offers the "Routing Registry Training Course". The main objective of the "Routing Registry Training Course" is to familiarise the LIRs with the features of the Routing Registry, while introducing the relevant tools and services of the RIPE NCC. The course also offers practical exercises. OVERVIEW OF TOPICS COVERED IN THE COURSE: - Routing Registry as a part of the RIPE Whois Database and the Internet Routing Registry (IRR) - Specifying routing policies using (RPSL) Routing Policy Specification Language and the RtConfig tool - IRRToolSet - Routing Information Service (RIS) - Routing Registry Consistency Check Project Please note that this is an advanced course. It will: - NOT teach the basics of routing - NOT teach the basics of RIPE Database operations, - NOT describe how to receive Internet resources from the RIPE NCC - NOT describe how to operate a Local Internet Registry (LIR) The target audience of the course are technical staff of LIRs: e.g. network operators, engineers etc. This course is not intended for administrative or management staff (e.g. Hostmasters) . It is assumed that all attendees will be familiar with Border Gateway Protocol routing and with the RIPE Database (i.e. creating/modifying objects). This course is based on interactive exercises in a local network set-up. Please bring your laptops equipped with the following: - A working Ethernet card, - Three meters of Ethernet cable, - A secure connection client, - A web browser. Please be prepared to share your laptop (or at least allow another attendee to "look over your shoulder") if necessary. The Routing Registry Training Course is conducted in the English language and is free of charge, since it is covered by the membership fee.

In order to register for a Routing Registry Training Course you must be an employee of an LIR and either: - be an LIR contact - be confirmed by an LIR contact LIR contacts are those employees of an LIR who are registered with RIPE NCC as authoritative contact persons.
