is there a need for the ROA object to be identical in length to the route object? take 41.213.128.0/21 is a RIPE-NOAUTH route object and there is a valid ROA from AFRINIC for 41.213.128.0/17 max length 24 regards erik On Wed, 12 May 2021 at 11:46, Edward Shryane <eshryane@ripe.net> wrote:

The proposed cleanup is to only remove route(6) objects from RIPE-NONAUTH which are not registered in *any* region: too bad, because I have a use case where I have a couple of route objects in RIPE-NOAUTH but they are maintained by an old peering partner which seems to have no wish to help me remove those objects which are legit AFRINIC route objects. thus although I want to clean them, I can't.

There is a RIPE policy to cleanup conflicting route(6) objects in the NONAUTH database: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-731
If you can create a ROA for the Afrinic prefix, a cleanup job will delete any conflicting route(6) for you.
