Hello!

So, the questions here is:

1) My understanding of the way RPKI-RTR works is that it's basically handed a tuple of prefix and AS, and RTR says "valid", "invalid", or "unknown".  It feels like to check for AS 0 ROAs, we'd basically have to do two lookups for each route that's otherwise invalid, which feels inefficient.  Is there a better way?

Probably not. Anyway, there are some plans to look into roa check efficiency, there are also going to be some aspa / as cones checks and more so we have to make it fast.

2) Can the output of "show route" be extended to include user defined fields, or are we locked into what's there?

3) If not, we're limited to adding communities or MEDs or local prefs or something like that, which is a hack, but at least gives us some info we can view.  Is that a dangerous trade off?

You can declare and use your own route attributes exactly for this:
