Package Description

This package downloads ROV data from a variety of sources and aggregates this information. This is useful for simulations where you want to run mixed deployment scenarios See the citations and explanations for all sources in the Credits When the collectors are run, they output results into a JSON object. This JSON is a dict where the key is ASN and the value is a list of ROVInfo objects

The results of a run from Nov 30 2023 can be seen here. Additionally, from the "Friends" paper, it's important to note that category 4 and category 5 ASes are not considered as ROV adopting, but are included in the graph for clarity.

Usage

• rov_collector

from a script:

from pathlib import Path

from rov_collector import rov_collector_classes


def main():
    json_path: Path = Path.home() / "Desktop" / "rov_info.json"
    # Clear out old files, since by default the collectors append
    json_path.unlink(missing_ok=True)
    for CollectorCls in rov_collector_classes:
        # For some reason mypy is freaking out about the instantiation here
        CollectorCls(json_path=json_path).run()  # type: ignore


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

From the command line:

rov_collector

Installation

• rov_collector

Install python and pip if you have not already.

Then run:

pip3 install pip --upgrade

Testing

• rov_collector

To test the package after installation:

cd rov_collector
pytest rov_collector
ruff check rov_collector
ruff format rov_collector
mypy rov_collector

If you want to run it across multiple environments:

cd rov_collector
tox --skip-missing-interpreters

Revisiting RPKI Route Origin Validation on the Data Plane

Explanation:

We recieved the data source from this paper through email from from Mar 22, 2022 from Matthias Waehlisch m.waehlisch@fu-berlin.de

When the CSV says strong confidence, this indicates that it is 1 hop from PEERING. When the CSV days weak confidence, that indicates that is 2+ hops from PEERING

Explanation:

This site by cloudflare allows you to test your ISP for ROV safety and stores this info. They also defined whether it filters all ASes or only peers

Measuring RPKI Route Origin Validation Deployment

Explanation:

At the time of publication this was one of the largest data sources for ROV ASes. They also had a nice website listing out all the ROV AS data. The website was last updated in 2020, so I'm not worried about a live feed. Instead I've just right clicked inspect on their page using google chrome, then clicked on the network tab, reloaded the page, and clicked on the asn query, and then clicked on response, and copy pasted this locally. I've checked that it's the same as the page.

Keep your friends close, but your routeservers closer: Insights into RPKI validation in the internet

Explanation:

This paper describes a new way to obtain ROV AS information and shows a drastic increase in ROV adoption, almost 27% adoption

Paper URL: URL

Paper data sources: github

Bibtex:

@inproceedings{mixed_deployment_4,
author = {Hlavacek, Tomas and Shulman, Haya and Vogel, Niklas and Waidner, Michael},
title = {Keep Your Friends Close, but Your Routeservers Closer: Insights into RPKI Validation in the Internet},

isbn = {978-1-939133-37-3},

booktitle = {Proceedings of the 32nd USENIX Conference on Security Symposium},
articleno = {271},
numpages = {18},
location = {Anaheim, CA, USA},
series = {SEC '23}
}

Also adding another bibtex for a poster presentation about this topic by the same authors that seems to be a subset of this work:

@inproceedings{mixed_deployment_5,
author = {Shulman, Haya and Vogel, Niklas and Waidner, Michael},
title = {Poster: Insights into Global Deployment of RPKI Validation},
year = {2022},
isbn = {9781450394505},
publisher = {Association for Computing Machinery},
address = {New York, NY, USA},
url = {https://doi.org/10.1145/3548606.3563523},
doi = {10.1145/3548606.3563523},
booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2022 ACM SIGSAC Conference on Computer and Communications Security},
pages = {3467–3469},
numpages = {3},
keywords = {rpki, prefix hijacks, bgp},
location = {Los Angeles, CA, USA},
series = {CCS '22}
}

And adding another bibtex here that cites this work as showing 37.8% adoption. I don't think that number is correct, but it does cite it:

(I couldn't find the bibtex, but the paper is "The CURE to Vulnerabilities in RPKI Validation", led by Donika Mirdita, Haya Shulman, etc)

Github links: Collector, data

It's just a dropbox, and additionally, the README said that results and reproduction steps would be later published, not sure if they just forgot about this?

I am able to run the code after some extra steps, which does take a long time to run. The resulting dataset is stored in the data/friends.json file. It's important to note that this was with 8.95% network errors (I believe their paper had some of these as well) and this took place Nov 30 2023.
