What is the purpose of Internet routing registration?
Internet routing registries, as described in the Routing Policy Specification Language, RPSL (RFC2622) document, provides a view of the global routing policy to improve the integrity of the Internet’s routing. ARIN’s routing registry provides data for network operators to configure their routers from the description of the policy for one autonomous system (aut-num class) combined with the description of a router (inet-rtr class), mainly providing router ID, autonomous system number of the router, interfaces and peers of the router, in addition to the various routing registry database mappings from AS sets to ASes (as-set class), and from origin ASes and route sets to route prefixes (route and route-set classes).
