[Community-Discuss] Webinar Invitation - Internet Routing Registry: Zero to Hero

[AFRINIC Communication]

Dear Colleagues,

AFRINIC is pleased to kick off with the first training webinar series of  2021 on the topic ‘Internet Routing Registries’.

Internet Routing Registries (IRRs) facilitate the validation of routing information by other network operators on a global scale and form one of the fundamental building blocks of routing security on the Internet.

As a network operator, documenting and regularly updating routing policies as well as other related route announcements is the best common operational practice. It is also one of the Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS') actions that a network operator can implement to demonstrate a commitment to running a safe and resilient Internet. 

In this webinar, you will learn how to implement your routing policy in the AFRINIC free IRR service as well as how to use it for various key network operations.

By the end of this session, participants should be able to:

	• Identify the various IRR objects and the function of each
	• Implement their routing policies in the IRR using the aut-num(AS) object  
	• Generate BGP filters from the IRR for their network operating systems
