other peers. other peers.
To countermeasure DDoS attacks, it is widespread to provide
blackholing services at IXPs (see RFC 7999 [RFC7999]). Peers are
using blackholing to drop traffic, typically by announcing smaller
subnets, which are unter attack. Assuming, for practical reasons,
peers will not reflect these announcements in their ROAs. In such
situations, the RPKI validation status for a prefixes, providing a
ROA, would be "Invalid". Given that other peers evaluating the RPKI
status, this leads to a degradation of prefixes being blackholed.
It's recommended that peers validating the RPKI status use a adopted
classification for such prefixes.
