Can anyone suggest a good pointer for getting up to speed.  I’m most specifically interested in the new policy construction and building policies for BGP routing control.  I googled for an IOS to IOS-XR translator as possibly a starting point and there seemed to be some internal resources but nothing public facing.  Any such package exist to do conversions and give me a starting point?  Any help would be most appreciated.  I’ve found some documents on the new policy structure but nothing that doesn’t assume I already have a baseline in XR.  Any pointers would be most appreciated.

If books are more your thing, you can try this from Cisco Press...

It will cover a lot more than the RPL, but it is a good starting point.
