[irrtoolset]other sources ?
by Pierfrancesco Caci 15 Dec '04

15 Dec '04

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 ?

Segmentation fault on peval
by Francesco Ferreri 15 Dec '04

15 Dec '04

Hi all, I'm using "peval" to expand simple policy expressions and get the corresponding routes list. When dealing with quite large as-sets, peval ends up with a segmentation fault message (for example, while trying to expand AS-COLT set: '$>peval AS-COLT' ). Is there a way to fix this behaviour and have large as-sets correctly expanded ?

[irrtoolset]Rtconfig problem
by Daniel Sanchez 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Dear Mr or Miss, I am trying to set up RtConfig at CERN, to replace a local tool. In particular, I want to use an override file including local RPSL objects. However when running RtConfig with the -f option, it does not seem to take into consideration the objects in the override file, except for aut-num objects. As far as I remember, at the LIR course (here in Geneva, October 2004) we were told that any RPSL object could be put into the override file. Questions: - Do you confirm that only aut-num objects are accepted by RtConfig in an override file to be used with the -f option? - If so, what do you recommend if you want RtConfig to process local RPSL objects, which, for practical reasons, cannot be put into the RIPE data base? - Are there examples of RtConfig usage anywhere I can take as guidelines? yours sincerely, Daniel Sanchez

[irrtoolset]peval & whois.ripe.net
by Fredrik Widell 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

Hi all, currently (and for the last 1-2 weeks) I am utterly unable to fetch/make filterlists for peers with large as-sets, to mee it seems whois.ripe.net is quite unresponsive, and sometimes even delivers the wrong results with peval, the example I have most trouble with atm below: peval -h whois.ripe.net -protocol ripe -no-as "AS702 AS702:RS-EURO AS702:RS-CUSTOMER" mostly, this justs exits with a "141 pipe broken", but, sometimes the result is ((AS702)) which is very far from the truth. So, can I still trust ripe-dbm to create my filterlists? or should I get other means to make my filters? -- Regards /Fredrik ------------------------------------------------------- KTHNOC, KTH, S-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden +46 8 790 65 17 -------------------------------------------------------

[irrtoolset]generating import filters with RtConfig
by Francesco Ferreri 05 Nov '04

05 Nov '04

Dear all, I'm quite new to RtConfig, I would like to know how I can generate import filters both using prefix lists and as-path lists. Playing around with RIPE test database I got this: if I specify an import policy in such a way: import: from ASx accept ASy (having a route object for ASy), then "@RtConfig import ASx <ip-addr-x> ASy <ip-addr-y>" gives me back a filter based on prefix lists. Otherwise, if I specify an import policy (or similar): import: from ASx accept <^ASy+$> then I get back a filter based on an as-path. So the main difference seems to reside in the way the aut-num object is written: using simple AS names gives prefix list filters, using regular expressions on AS names gives as-path based filters, am I right ? Is there a way to combine both things to obtain both types of filters for the same peering relationship ?

[irrtoolset]exit code
by Alexander Moskalenko 03 Nov '04

03 Nov '04

Hello! I use RtConfig in some scripts, but sometimes it cant get information from RIPE DB. In result it returns an empty output. I cant find any information about which exit code returned in this case. Could anyone explain which exit code returned in which situation?
