Denis, do you remember *why* that is the rule? I don't see a lot of benefit to requiring the existing object to authorise the creation of a *new* object, when the new object is authorised by the inetnum (in this case both through mnt-routes: and mnt-by:). >> ***Error: Authorisation for [route] 194.76.156.0/22AS20676 failed >> using "mnt-by:" not authenticated by: PLUSNET-NOC > > Could we reduce the confusion, and/or spread some more clue, by being > more specific with this error? e.g. > > Authorisation for [blah] failed using "mnt-by:" > - matching route object already exists > - not authenticated by: PLUSNET-NOC Perhaps instead of an error message, the operation that Sasha tried to do should just be allowed? Kind regards, Job
