RPKI-CLIENT(8) System Manager's Manual RPKI-CLIENT(8) NAME rpki-client -- RPKI validator to support BGP routing security SYNOPSIS rpki-client [-0ABcjmnoRVvx] [-b sourceaddr] [-d cachedir] [-e rsync_prog] [-H fqdn] [-S skiplist] [-s timeout] [-t tal] [outputdir] rpki-client [-Vv] [-d cachedir] [-j] [-t tal] -f file ... DESCRIPTION The rpki-client utility queries the Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) repository system with a built-in HTTPS client and rsync(1) to fetch all X.509 certificates, manifests, and revocation lists under a given Trust Anchor. rpki-client subsequently validates each Signed Object by constructing and verifying a certification path for the cer- tificate associated with the Object (including checking relevant CRLs). rpki-client produces lists of the Validated ROA Payloads (VRPs), BGPsec Router Keys (BRKs), and Validated ASPA Payloads (VAPs) in various for- mats. The options are as follows: -0 Include hazardous AS0 TALs in the output files. AS0 TALs are not recommended for automatic filtering of BGP routes. The de- fault is not to include them. -A Exclude the ASPA-set from the output files that support it (BIRD, JSON, and OpenBGPD). -B Create output in the file bird in the output directory suitable for BIRD internet routing daemon version 2.16 and up. For com- patibility with earlier versions, use -A. The validated pay- load table names are ROAS4, ROAS6, and ASPAS. -b sourceaddr Tell the HTTP and rsync clients to use sourceaddr as the source address for connections, which is useful on machines with mul- tiple interfaces. -c Create output in the file csv in the output directory as comma- separated values of the Autonomous System, the prefix in slash notation, the maximum prefix length, an abbreviation for the Trust Anchor the entry is derived from, and the moment the VRP will expire derived from the chain of X.509 certificates and CRLs in seconds since the Epoch, UTC. -d cachedir The directory where rpki-client will store the cached reposi- tory data. Defaults to /var/cache/rpki-client. -e rsync_prog Use rsync_prog instead of rsync(1) to fetch repositories. It must accept the -rt and --address flags and connect with rsync- protocol locations. -f file ... Decode the TAL or validate the Signed Object in file against the RPKI cache stored in cachedir and print human-readable in- formation about the object. If file is an rsync:// URI, the corresponding file from the cache will be used. This option implies -n, and can be combined with -j to emit a stream of Concatenated JSON. -H fqdn Create a shortlist and add fqdn to the shortlist. rpki-client only connects to shortlisted hosts. The shortlist filter is enforced during processing of the Subject Information Access (SIA) extension in CA certificates, thus applies to both RSYNC and RRDP connections. This option can be used multiple times. -j Create output in the file json in the output directory as JSON object. See -c for a description of the fields. -m Create output in the file metrics in the output directory in OpenMetrics format. -n Offline mode. Validate the contents of cachedir and write to outputdir without synchronizing via RRDP or RSYNC. -o Create output in the file openbgpd in the output directory as bgpd(8) compatible input. If the -B, -c, and -j options are not specified this is the default. -P posix-seconds Specify the time for the evaluation in posix-seconds seconds from the unix epoch. This overrides the default of using the current system time. -R Disable RRDP, synchronize only via RSYNC. -S skiplist Do not connect to hosts listed in the skiplist file. Entries in the skiplist are newline separated Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDNs). A `#' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted. The skip filter is enforced during processing of the Subject Information Access (SIA) extension in CA certificates, thus ap- plies to both RSYNC and RRDP connections. By default load en- tries from /usr/local/etc/rpki/skiplist. -s timeout Terminate after timeout seconds of runtime, because normal practice will restart from cron(8). Disable by specifying 0. Defaults to 1 hour. Individual RSYNC/RRDP repositories are timed out after one fourth of timeout. All network synchroni- sation tasks are aborted after seven eights of timeout. -t tal Specify a Trust Anchor Location (TAL) file to be used. This option can be used multiple times to load multiple TALs. By default rpki-client will load all TAL files in /usr/local/etc/rpki. TAL are small files containing a public key and URL endpoint address. -V Show the version and exit. -v Increase verbosity. Specify once for synchronisation status, twice to print the name of each file as it's processed. If -f is given, specify once to print more information about the en- capsulated X.509 certificate, twice to print the certificate in PEM format. -x Enable processing of experimental file formats. This option is implied by -f. outputdir The directory where rpki-client will write the output files. Defaults to /var/db/rpki-client. By default rpki-client outputs validated payloads in -joBcm (JSON, OpenBGPD, BIRD, CSV and OpenMetric) formats. rpki-client should be run hourly by cron(8): use crontab(1) to uncom- ment the entry in root's crontab. TRUST ANCHOR CONSTRAINTS rpki-client can impose locally configured constraints on cryptographic products subordinate to publicly-trusted Trust Anchors. Constraining a Trust Anchor's effective signing authority to a limited set of Internet Number Resources allows Relying Parties to take advan- tage of the potential benefits of assuming trust, while deriving trust within a bounded scope. Each .constraints file imposes constraints on the Trust Anchor reach- able via the same-named .tal file. One entry per line. Entries can be IP prefixes, IP address ranges, AS identifiers, or AS identifier ranges. Ranges are a minimum and maximum separated by a hyphen (`-'). Comments can be put anywhere in the file using a hash mark (`#'), and extend to the end of the current line. deny entries may not overlap with other deny entries. allow entries may not overlap with other allow entries. A given EE certificate's resources may not overlap with any deny entry, and must be fully contained within the allow entries. ENVIRONMENT rpki-client utilizes the following environment variables: http_proxy URL of HTTP proxy to use. FILES /usr/local/etc/rpki/*.tal default TAL files used unless -t tal is specified. /usr/local/etc/rpki/*.constraints files containing registry-specific con- straints to restrict what IP addresses and AS identifiers may or may not appear in EE certificates subordinate to the same-named Trust Anchor. /usr/local/etc/rpki/skiplist default skiplist file, unless -S skiplist is specified. /var/cache/rpki-client cached repository data. /var/db/rpki-client/openbgpd default roa-set output file. All the top-level TAL are included, except the ARIN TAL which is not made available with terms compatible with open source. That public key is treated as a proprietary object in a lengthy legal agreement regard- ing ARIN service restrictions.
