Hi,
In reading draft-ietf-sidr-roa-format-03.txt with the changes to the ROA format arising
from the last WG meeting, I was wondering if there was a "canonical form" for a
ROA, or not.
e.g. If I have a ROA that includes
10.0.0.0/8, maxlength=32
and
10.0.0.0/24 maxlength=32
then obviously the second entry is redundant.
Also there are more "compressed" formats and less "compressed" formats
e.g.
10.0.0.0/8 maxlength=8
10.0.0.0/9 maxlength=9
could be "compressed" to
10.0.0.0/8 maxlength=9
My question is: is it of any value to define a "canonical" format for a ROA?
Is there an obvious answer to this question that I am missing?
Would you like to lead a WG discussion of this question at the SIDR WG
meeting, as an agenda item?
regards,
Geoff
