[rpd] New policy proposals and updated ones

[Paschal Ochang]

Hello Jordi,
feliz Navidad y un Feliz Año Nuevo.

I have some concerns regarding this proposal and also some clarifications .

I think statistically AFRINIC has a good percentage of IPv4 address space
covered by route origin authorization as compared to APNIC. APNIC has a
very low percentage statically hence it's hurried acceptance of the
proposal.


I think using the approach in this policy is majorly to handle accidental
incidents rather than malicious attacks whereby someone might try to
manipulate an AS path.

It is suggested to always drop invalid announcements, rather than applying
a lower preference. This is because sub-prefix hijackings would be still
possible if invalids are accepted and this would go against the purpose of
RPKI validation. However  I think the text should state how invalids should
be dropped in order not to trigger loosing connectivity.

Finally I dont think it will be a nice idea allowing resource holders  to
create AS0 ROA as I think this scenario might increase the issue of invalid
prefixes in the routing tables.
