In addition to the library routines in the rpkid/rpki/ directory, the package includes the following programs: - * rpkid_: The main RPKI engine daemon. - * pubd_: The publication engine daemon. - * rootd_: A separate daemon for handling the root of an RPKI certificate tree. This is essentially a stripped down version of rpkid with no SQL database, no left-right protocol implementation, and only the parent side of the up-down protocol. It's separate because the root is a special case in several ways and it was simpler to keep the special cases out of the main daemon. - * irdbd_: A sample implementation of an IR database daemon. rpkid calls into this to perform lookups via the left-right protocol. - * smoketest_: A test tool for running a collection of rpkid and irdb instances under common control, driven by a unified test script. - * yamltest : Another test tool which takes the same input format as smoketest.py, but with slightly different purpose. smoketest.py is intended to support regression tests, while yamltest.py is intended for automated @@ -75,7 +65,6 @@ myrpki.conf as the configuration file for each server as well.
