The program queries the RPKI repository system, downloads and validates Route Origin Authorisations (ROAs) and finally outputs Validated ROA Payloads (VRPs) in the configuration format of OpenBGPD, BIRD, and also as CSV or JSON objects for consumption by other routing stacks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: rpki-client 9.8 Various refactoring for improved compatibility with various libcrypto implementations and in CA/BGPsec certificate handling. Fixed an accounting issue in HTTP gzip compression detection. Added a warning in extra verbose mode (-vv) about standards non-compliant Issuer and Subject ASN.1 string encodings. Added a check for canonical encoding of ASPA eContent in alignment with draft- ietf-sidrops-aspa-profile-22. Ensure that a repository timeout correctly stops repository processing. Fixed a defect in Canonical Cache Representation ROAIPAddressFamily sort order. As a result, rpki-client 9.8 cannot parse rpki-client 9.7's .ccr files and vice versa.
