Day four of RIPE 76 featured another full day of RIPE Working Group sessions. Without a doubt, RIPE 76 is the largest RIPE Meeting to-date with 707 checked in at the end of the day (200 of those first-time attendees).

Thursday’s RIPE Working Group session highlights:

  • A new idea to prevent IP address spoofingusing a new BGP community to set BGP local preference metric to zero
  • A proposal to use AS-Cones to bring the functionality of AS-sets to RPKI – with a mix of positive and negative feedback from the audience on the idea
