Everyone so far has understood the purpose of the RPKI, they understood why the affected route announcements were deemed invalid and thus were dropped, and best of all -- they understood what they needed to do to fix things. We got some very good advice watching this video from your most recent NLNOG day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrzl__yGqLE ... but there is one place where I disagree with Niels. He advised against lowering the local-pref of invalid routes. I agree that this should not be anyone's target policy, but it is a useful step along the way. To set invalid routes a lower local-pref, one needs to establish RTR sessions from routers to relying party servers, and to configure a policy that takes validation state into account. The policy here can also set community based on the validation state, which can help with flow-based traffic analysis. Then, when you are comfortable operating RPs that talk RTR to your routers and you're ready to implement a meaningful policy, it's a simple matter of changing from: if validation-state = invalid then local-pref = $LOWER community = foo fi to: if validation-state = invalid then drop fi In short: C'mon in! The water's fine! :-) Thanks. Jay B.

Thanks! > Are you able to comment on what amount of routes are getting dropped? In round numbers, we dropped about 5000 invalid prefixes total between ipv4 and ipv6. Roughly half of those prefixes were covered by less-specific non-invalid routes, so connectivity should not have been affected for those prefixes (assuming an announcement yields reachability to all destinations within it). Flow analysis was showing just a couple Gbps of traffic to all invalid routes all across the country, and much less than that with those invalids having no covering less-specifics. Jay B.

AT/as7018 now drops invalid prefixes from peers
FYI: The AT/as7018 network is now dropping all RPKI-invalid route announcements that we receive from our peers. We continue to accept invalid route announcements from our customers, at least for now. We are communicating with our customers whose invalid announcements we are propagating, informing them that these routes will be accepted by fewer and fewer networks over time. Thanks to those of you who are publishing ROAs in the RPKI. We would also like to encourage other networks to join us in taking this step to improve the quality of routing information in the Internet. Thanks! Jay B.

The company I worked for at the time started rolling our GPON with the top speed at 50Mbps for several hundred RM/month back in 2010. 9 years later, they are selling 1Gbps @ RM99/month. I suppose we can choke it down to the cost of living in the North Western hemisphere being what it is, or some such reason :-). Mark.

We have the same problem here in Africa too (and I saw it in Asia-Pac while I was there as well)... non-telco-centric companies that deployed fibre to manage their non-telco infrastructure, now entering the telco space to make use of the excess capacity, or because they want to be part of the "next digital wave", with zero operational experience, and a single-mindedness about one thing - "We will never sell dark fibre to anyone". Ultimately, they wise up or get bought by an operator. It's just a question of how much patience you've got to spend. Mark.

I assume this is targeted towards single-family detached houses, where the family owns the house themselves. Then they likely will view that as an investment in the house. If you want to sell your house a couple of years later, and it doesn't have a fiber connection, buyers will be less attracted to the house, and want to pay less. It might also be more expensive to connect after the initial buildout of an area. I believe that's how the commercial companies in Sweden that build FTTH work. I can also note that where I live (Linköping, Sweden), the municipal fiber company charges ~2400 EUR to connect a single-family home to their network. That does *not* include the laying of fiber on your property, from the street to your house. And on top of that, you need to buy Internet connectivity from a normal commercial ISP at a monthly cost; the municipal fiber company only provides layer 2 connectivity between the home and the ISPs (currently 19 different ISPs). /Bellman signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
