Introduction This document assumes a working knowledge of the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI), which is intended to support improved routing security on the Internet. [RFC6480] In order to make participation in the RPKI easier, it is helpful to have a few consolidated repositories for RPKI objects, thus saving every participant from the cost of maintaining a new service. Similarly, relying parties using the RPKI objects will find it faster and more reliable to retrieve the necessary set from a smaller number of repositories. These consolidated RPKI object repositories will in many cases be outside the administrative scope of the organization issuing a given RPKI object. In some cases, outsourcing operation of the repository - will be an explicit goal: some resource holders who stringly wish to + will be an explicit goal: some resource holders who strongly wish to control their own RPKI private keys may lack the resources to operate a 24x7 repository, or may simply not wish to do so.

Error handling Errors are handled at two levels.

It is optional to set the tag on queries but, if set on the query, it MUST be set on the reply or error. The error itself is conveyed in the error_code attribute. The value of this attribute is a token indicating the specific error that occurred. The body of the element itself is an optional text string; if present, this is debugging information. -2.4.

Security Considerations The RPKI publication protocol and the data it publishes use entirely separate PKIs for authentication.
