​RSSF is committed to implementing open standards relevant to BGP-4 and RPKI as developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). In the coming 24 months we will focus on the following topics:

​

• OpenBGPD: Multi-core support for Adj-RIB-Out calculations

• OpenBGPD: Use “swisstables” instead of red-black trees for RIBs

• OpenBGPD: performance benchmarking tools “BGP-canary” and “BGPblaster”

• rpki-client: Implement “validation re-reconsidered” algorithm

• rpki-client: Erik Synchronisation protocol support​

• rpki-client: Canonical Cache Representation support

• rpki-client: refactor signed object validation process

• …

​​

Pending user input and contributions of resources:

• BMP (we'd love to hear your user stories!)

• BGPsec

  • ​OpenRTR (RTR server in OpenBSD)

  • RPKI CA implementation

• SNMP (or ... has SNMP been overtaken by our recent OpenMetrics work?)

Your feedback is most welcome! Please contact us to discuss collaboration opportunities.
