+"""The purpose of this script is to take the RIPE NCC's routing database
+and transform a comma separated list of AS-SETs (-as-sets) into IRCnet's
+I-Line structure. It will look at all ipv4 and ipv6 route objects in a
+certain AS number, and it finds the AS numbers by expanding the AS-SET
+members. It uses the class speficied on the commandline (-class)
+Example usage:
+$ asset_ilines.py -as-sets AS-IP-MAN-PEERING-CIXP,AS-IP-MAN-PEERING-TIX \
+	-class 210 -output ilines.as-set.conf
