Action 2-1: Offer assistance to its members to maintain accurate routing information in an appropriate repository (IRR and/or RPKI).

We give our members where they can update their objects and how to update those correctly.
Additionally, we point out some good examples, how to retrieve policy from other and on the other hand, how to define their own policy as well, finally, how IRR and RPKI can fulfil each other to gain the security to the Internet.

Action 2-2: Offer assistance in implementing MANRS ISP Actions for the members.

We help promote MANRS through member meetings which will be held 2 times a year. Besides, We invite the distinguished speaker, Aftab Siddiqui to introduce and promote MANRS in BKNIX Peering forum.
