More information & Agendas

EOF tutorial

After the success of the EOF one day tutorial at the previous RIPE meeting, another one is planned for the RIPE 31 Meeting. It will be organised by Peter Lothberg. The subject will be announced later - it will certainly deal with advanced Internet technology.

RPSL course

The RIPE NCC, together with the USC Information Sciences Institute will be organizing an in-depth tutorial on Internet Routing Coordination.

In the tutorial, we will introduce the Internet Routing Registry (IRR), explaining how to register and query routing policy objects. After a brief introduction to routing policies (policies as used in the Internet today and BGP mechanisms to implement those policies), we will discuss the new Routing Policy Specification Language (RPSL), the IETF proposed standard language for specifying Internet routing policy. RPSL is currently being deployed by IRR participants and will replace RIPE-181, the current IRR routing policy specification language. RPSL provides substantial extensions to RIPE-181, making it possible to specify a much richer set of routing policies.

Attendees should understand basic BGP operations, but need not be familiar with the IRR.

The tutorial is free to RIPE Meeting attendees, and advance registration is required. Use the RIPE Meeting registration page to register for this tutorial. See also RFC2280
