Guilmette via db-wg <db-wg@ripe.net> Sent: Thursday, August 5, 2021 4:10 PM To: db-wg@ripe.net <db-wg@ripe.net> Subject: [db-wg] Update: Bogon Route objects (part 2) <div> </div> </div> <div class="BodyFragment"> <div class="PlainText">There remain a number of route objects in the AUTH data base that refer to bogon AS numbers. I would like to suggest that at the very least these should be moved to NONAUTH, but preferably deleted altogether. Use of bogon AS numbers should neither be condoned nor assisted by any RIR. I mean what is the point of having RIRs if people are just going to use whatever numbers they want, willy nilly, and without formal assignments? Also, the overwhelming majority of these route objects do not correspond to active route announcements anyway, and thus deleting them would provably have -no- operational significance.
