rpki-client
9.3 released Sep 19, 2024
rpki-client
is a FREE, easy-to-use implementation of the
Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) for Relying Parties (RP) to
facilitate validation of BGP announcements.
The program queries the global RPKI repository system and validates untrusted
network inputs.
The program outputs validated ROA payloads and BGPsec Router
keys in configuration formats suitable for
OpenBGPD and
BIRD, or in CSV or JSON format
for consumption by other routing stacks.
See RFC 6480 and
RFC 6811 for a
description of how RPKI and BGP Prefix Origin Validation help secure the global
Internet routing system.
rpki-client
was primarily developed by Kristaps Dzonsons, Claudio Jeker,
Job Snijders, Theo de Raadt, Sebastian Benoit, and Theo Buehler as part of the
OpenBSD Project
and gets released as a base component of OpenBSD every six months.
The portable
version, maintained by Sebastian Benoit and Job Snijders, is
available via periodic tarball releases. Contributions are welcome to both
the rpki-client core and the portable build framework.
The software is freely usable and re-usable by everyone under the ISC
license.
