Abstract
The RIPE database specifications and RPSL language define languages
used as the basis for representing information in a routing policy
system. A repository for routing policy system information is known
as a routing registry. A routing registry provides a means of
exchanging information needed to address many issues of importance to
the operation of the Internet. The implementation and deployment of
a routing policy system must maintain some degree of integrity to be
of any operational use. This document addresses the need to assure
integrity of the data by providing an authentication and
authorization model.
