Re: [irrtoolset]inet-rtr logic

I think I've figured it out.

It relies on the aut-num object of what's specified in the local-as attribute of the inet-rtr object, not the peer's. That being said, what is the function of the MANDATORY asno(as_number) dictionary value? Simply for remote-as if it's generating neighbor statements?

Greetings,

I'm trying to understand how RtConfig uses the inet-rtr to search for data.

I have an inet-rtr object with the following peer:

peer: BGP4 198.32.245.8 asno(AS13657)

The import/export info of the aut-num object for AS13657 looks like this:

import: from AS701 accept ANY
import: from AS10678 accept ANY
import: from AS843 accept ANY
import: from AS10568 accept AS10568
import: from AS5764 accept AS5764
export: to AS10568 announce ANY
export: to AS10678 announce AS13657 AS13657:AS-CUSTOMERS
export: to AS843 announce ANY
export: to AS5674 announce ANY

When I run RtConfig configureRouter <inet-rtr>

I get a list of prefixes for AS10568 and AS5764, but not for AS13657 itself. I've read RFC2622 and the man page for IrrToolSet, but it doesn't give any indication as to how far it's search key extends into the aut-num object referenced in the peer: entry of the inet-rtr object.

inet-rtr doesn't imply having a reciprocal entry in the inet-rtr objects peer's aut-num object, does it?
