Subject: [Sidrops] Example BGPSec Router certificate, and GBR for testing?

Hi all,

Does anyone have a real world BGPSec router certificate and Ghostbuster object they could share for testing validation software?

The router certificates use the same extension as delegated CA certificates: ".cer". But, they are of course slightly different. Relying parties should therefore be aware that when they loop over the entries in a manifest, any file with the ".cer" extension might be either.

I am not aware of any BGPSec certificates in the wild, but they can appear at any moment. Especially given the direction of the manifest -bis document it's therefore important that RPs can deal with these certificates properly.

The same applies to Ghostbuster records. If there is an example that could be shared, then this could help us and other RP implementers to deal with these objects securely as well.

Thanks,

Tim
