It's like everything else. Understand what the tools do and what they
don't do, and use them appropriately.



A primary risk for an IXP is the existence of a more-specific of the IX
peering LAN prefix, a less-specific wouldn’t matter or inflict damage.

So in the above context an AS 0 ROAs can be useful to improve protection of
IXP Peering LANs where the IX operator doesn’t want the fabric to be
globally reachable - and one of the IX participants failed to correctly
EBGP in/out policies.

Kind regards,
