The IRRToolSet is a set of tools to work with Internet routing policies. These policies are stored in Internet Routing Registries (IRR) in the Routing Policy Specification Language.
The goal of the IRRToolSet is to make routing information more convenient and useful for network engineers, by providing tools for automated router configuration, routing policy analysis, and on-going maintenance.
IRRToolSet is not actively maintained. If you're looking for a fast, efficient, well-maintained IRRDB client, BGPQ4 is an excellent choice: https://github.com/bgp/bgpq4.
IRRToolSet's website, up-to-date code and releases can be found at http://github.com/irrtoolset/irrtoolset.
The IRRToolSet community communicates via a mailing list, irrtoolset@isc.org.
To subscribe to the mailing list you can visit

It is preferred for bug reports and patches to be reported on GitHub.
