RFC 9582 - The Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) to Router Protocol, Version 2

Every requirement this repository extracted from RFC 9582, the tests bound to it, and what a reader has verified about them. This summary is enrolled and gated by ./le rfc check.

Overview

Positive

what Ze has

Tested both ways85.7%6 of 7 binding obligations

a positive test proves Ze does what the requirement demands and a negative one proves it refuses what the requirement forbids

One polarity plus reason14.3%1 of 7 binding obligations

the requirement admits no counter-case, so one polarity plus a recorded reason is the whole proof available for it

One polarity, unexcused0.0%0 of 7 binding obligations

one direction is tested, the other is neither tested nor excused, and nothing states which

No test at all0.0%0 of 7 binding obligations

no test carries the requirement id, whether or not a gap states why

Proven by a recorded break0.0%0 of 13 tagged units

a red was observed once under a recorded procedure, and the unit, the claim and the producer it rested on still hash to what was recorded. The break is not re-run. A test pair is not a proof until one has been observed

Neutral

measures that are neither good news nor bad

Gated MUSTs10of 13 this summary declares

MUST-level requirements the gate HOLDS. A population, not a result: the shares beside it are what says how Ze stands

Out of scope3of 10 gated MUSTs

a {not-applicable} annotation says the obligation does not bind Ze. Scope, not coverage: it is in no share below

The 4 shares marked as a part above are the whole of the 7 obligations that bind Ze: they add to 100%. Proven by a recorded break is a share of TAGGED UNITS, a different population, so it is not one of them.

How to read the colors

A color names what the measure MEANS, not how well Ze scores on it. Green is a good outcome at any value, red is a bad one, and neither a population nor a scope count is an outcome, so both take no color. The number under the label is what says how far Ze has got.

CardTone hereWhy that color
Gated MUSTs neutral no color: a population is a scale, and a larger one is neither good news nor bad. It is the accounting total
Out of scope neutral no color: an obligation that never bound Ze is neither an achievement nor a failure, and counting it either way would be a claim
Tested both ways ok green at every value: a test pair is the outcome this gate exists to produce, and the share under the label is what says how far Ze has got
One polarity plus reason ok green at every value: where no counter-case exists, one polarity IS the complete answer, and a recorded reason is what the gate demands beside it
One polarity, unexcused ok green at zero, RED above it: half a proof with no reason for the other half
No test at all ok green at zero, RED above it: a binding obligation nothing exercises is a claim with nothing behind it, whether or not a reason is stated
Proven by a recorded break ok green at every value: an observed break is the outcome the discrimination gate exists to produce. The denominator is TAGGED UNITS, not obligations, so this share is not one of the parts above
Audit verdicts warn RED on the first weak, wrong or unimplemented verdict, amber while a verdict is no longer current or a gated MUST is unjudged, green when every one is judged sound and current

What the public ledger says

Status: Unsupported

What the ledger says is covered Nothing. RFC 9582 profiles the ROA signed object itself: a CMS envelope carrying a RouteOriginAttestation, an EE certificate bearing an RFC 3779 IP address delegation extension, and a certification path to a trust anchor. No ROA object exists anywhere in the ze process. parsePrefixPDU reads an already-validated payload off an RTR PDU at fixed byte offsets, so the decode, the extension reading and the path validation this RFC specifies all happen in the RPKI cache ze dials. <!-- source: internal/component/bgp/plugins/rpki/rtr_pdu.go -- parsePrefixPDU -->
What the ledger says remains Every obligation, and implementing them means a relying-party validator: a CMS/DER decoder (RFC 5652 and RFC 6488), an RFC 3779 extension reader, X.509 path validation to a trust anchor, and an RRDP or rsync fetcher. That is what Routinator and rpki-client are, and ze delegates it deliberately. **This row read Supported until 2026-09-01, and the claim was never about this RFC.** rfc/short/rfc9582.md still declares thirteen ids describing ASPA PDUs and RTR version negotiation, which are draft-ietf-sidrops-8210bis: RFC 9582 has no Section 5.12 and its Section 7 is IANA Considerations, so each id cites a section its own document does not have. The obligations are real and ze meets them; only the attribution is wrong. Correcting it is plan/spec-rfc-requirement-reattribution.md, which the ledger's own ratchets refuse until they learn to let proof follow an obligation to another document.

Proof state

A tagged unit reads unproven where no discrimination record exists for it: nothing in this tree has been observed to break it, so the claim its tag makes is unproven.

Extraction sign-off

No extraction sign-off exists for RFC 9582, so no reviewer has walked its text sentence by sentence.

Superseded

No document obsoletes RFC 9582, so its obligations are stated where they were written.
