nog.fi meeting 2026.06

In this talk, Daniel Wagner, Researcher at DE-CIX, reports on the latest progress made in the RIPE labs article series about the IRR landscape. This talk will include insights not yet released on the influence of AS-SET heterogeneity, their lookup order and lastly, the actual traffic impact at a very large IXP.
IRR DBs are used for Route Server prefix filter generation. Their data correctness is critical to enable traffic flow through the peering fabric. Hence, the insights from this overall series propose a call to action which is subject to discussion with the community.
