Create Routing Registry Objects

1. The first thing you will need to do is create a Maintainer Object and Person Object. A Maintainer Object links all your other types of objects together, a Person Object provides contact details for each object and is referenced through the admin-c/tech-c attributes. Cut and paste template into your email and fill out each field appropriately. Mouse over for directions. Note: if you do not fill in an optional field then remove field completely. A submitted template with a blank field will automatically be rejected.

2. You will need an *AS (aut-num) Object*. This object lets others know others about the ASN such as POC information and routing policy.

        aut-num:     AS2914
        as-name:    NTTC-GIN-AS
        descr:      Global IP Network
        admin-c:     VP8-ARIN
        tech-c:      VP8-ARIN
        import:      from as93 accept AS93
        import:      from as3727 accept AS-HEAS
        import:      from as103 accept as103
        import:      from as10368 accept as10368
      [... many import lines deleted ...]
        export:      to as93 announce AS-NTT
        export:      to as3727 announce ANY
        export:      to as103 announce as-ntt
        export:      to as10368 announce as-ntt
      [... many export lines deleted ...]
        remarks:     peers should accept as-ntt

3. If you have BGP customers yourself, you will need an *AS-set Object*. The NTTCOM Registry will then look for objects for each ASN listed in the AS-set in order to add their prefixes to your BGP prefix filter.

                    AS2914:AS-US, AS2914:AS-ASIA, AS2914:AS-EUROPE

4. You will need to add a *Route Object* for each specific prefix your ASN plans to announce (originate).

        origin:        AS2914
        remarks:       this is non-portable space, no exceptions

v6 route example:
        route6:     2001:418::/32
        descr:      NTT
        origin:     AS2914
        remarks:    this is non-portable space, no exceptions
        remarks:    contacts per RFC2142:
        remarks:    Abuse / UCE reports abuse@ntt.net
        remarks:    Security issues     security@ntt.net

        changed:    boudreat@eng.verio.net 20070728

This is the “Key-Cert Object” template for those who want to use PGP key instead of Crypt-PW (see mouse-over for “auth:” at top of page).

---------------------- CUT HERE -------------------
key-cert:  [mandatory]  [single]     [primary/look-up key]

owner:     [generated]  [multiple]   [ ]
fingerpr:  [generated]  [single]     [ ]
certif:    [mandatory]  [single]     [ ]
remarks:   [optional]   [multiple]   [ ]
notify:    [optional]   [multiple]   [inverse key]
mnt-by:    [mandatory]  [multiple]   [inverse key]
changed:   [mandatory]  [multiple]   [ ]
