RIS Quarterly Planning Q3 2022
by Paul de Weerd 29 Jun '22

29 Jun '22

Dear colleagues, We've published the quarterly plans for RIS and they can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/support/documentation/quarterly-planning/ris In this quarter, we'll gather feedback on three new prototypes and continue to make improvements to RIS data through peering coordination among other items. We hope that by providing these plans, we can better inform the community of the ongoing work we're doing on RIS and get feedback on it. If you have any input on these plans or suggestions for future work, please reach out to us. Kind regards, Paul de Weerd RIPE NCC

rrc13 collector is down
by Marco Giuliani 25 May '22

25 May '22

Dear all, the collector rrc13.ripe.net installed at MSK-IX is currently down due to a major hardware failure. As a consequence of the lack of proper shutdown of the BGP sessions, RIS data is showing stale prefixes. So, for example, it can appear that a route is still up for a peer on RRC13 while in reality that route was withdrawn from the global Internet. We expect this negative effect to disappear in the course of May 25th. We are currently in contact with MSK-IX to restore the system. Marco Giuliani RIPE NCC

New prototype: per-peer dump files
by Oleg Muravskiy 14 Apr '22

14 Apr '22

Dear RIS users, We would like to announce the release of a public prototype of a new service, per-peer BGP dump files. These files are generated every hour and exposed through a REST interface. We believe that having BGP dumps generated every hour provides better insight into BGP than the eight-hourly dumps currently provided. Also, with per-peer dumps, it is possible to choose just a subset of data that is now available with per-RRC dumps, which could make the analysis of this data faster. We have also fixed the format of the dump files, so it now conforms to the RFC 6396 (Multi-Threaded Routing Toolkit (MRT) Routing Information Export Format): we do not include MP_UNREACH_NLRI attribute of BGP updates in a dump file, and we do not include announced prefix in MP_REACH_NLRI attribute, as Section 4.3.4 of RFC 6396 describes. With these changes in the format of the files, we ask you to verify that your MRT parsers could still parse these new files. The REST interface to access per-peer dump files is available at: https://www.ris.ripe.net/dumps-per-peer-rest/prototype/ Please take note of the word "prototype" in the URL: this is still a prototype service. At this moment, we want to collect your feedback and improve this service before moving it to "production". Please also do not rely on this URL, as we intend to change it in the future. The API of the interface should be self-explanatory: doing a GET request on the above URL returns a list of links to the individual RRC's data, arranged per hour, in JSON format. Fetching any of those links will return a list of links to the dump files. Please share your feedback on this mailing list; we are looking forward to your reactions! -- Oleg Muravskiy RIPE NCC

Today RIS session in SpatialChat - RIPE 83
by Michela Galante 25 Nov '21

25 Nov '21

Dear RIS users, It has been a long time since we have sent you some news related to RIS (the RIPE NCC Routing Information Service) through this mailing list. As you might know the RIPE 83 meeting is happening this week. The event has a virtual format and registration is free: https://ripe83.ripe.net/attend/register/ The registration will allow you to participate through Meetecho, the RIPE 83 conference platform, and SpatialChat, the virtual coffee break area. Hereby we would like to invite you to participate to the RIS Jam session that will happen today in SpatialChat between 17.00 and 18.30 (UTC+1): during this session, we, the team operating the RIS service, will be available to listen to your feedback and to answer any questions that you might have. Date: Thursday, 25 November Time: 17:00-18:30 (UTC+1) Where: SpatialChat – RIS JAM Hope to see many of you in SpatialChat! Best regards, Michela Galante on behalf of the RIPE RIS Team

Data inconsistency affecting RIS dumps and RIPEstat APIs and widgets
by Oleg Muravskiy 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Dear RIS users, We have discovered a data inconsistency affecting RIS dumps and data available through RIPEstat APIs and widgets. The BGP updates that took place on 1 November between 10:00–11:47 and 14:00–15:33 were not accounted for when generating RIS dump files and most of the datasets of RIPEstat. This resulted in an incorrect representation of the BGP state data for routes that have not been updated since then. RIS update files and RIS Looking Glass are not affected. We are working on a fix and will re-generate correct RIS dump files and RIPEstat datasets. We are sorry for any inconveniences this may have caused. Oleg Muravskiy RIPE NCC

Does bgpdump show select route?
by Qiao Xiang 22 May '19

22 May '19

Dear all, How are you doing? I am new to the bgpdump tool. I use it to transfer a .bz2 RIB data file on Route Views to ASCII file as suggested in the following page: http://www.routeviews.org/routeviews/index.php/archive/ In the resulting ASCII file, all entries are marked as TABLE_DUMPV2 type. However, I am wondering, if entries of selected routes are marked in the file? If so, what is the marker? Thank you very much.

New RIS Remote Route Collectors at InterLAN Bucharest, Equinix Singapore
by Colin Petrie 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC is pleased to announce two new Remote Route Collectors (RRCs) for the Routing Information Service (RIS). RRC22 is now online at InterLAN in Bucharest. We would like to thank InterLAN for their help and support. RRC23 is now online at Equinix Singapore in Singapore. We would like to thank Equinix for their help and support. The data from these new collectors is already available via RIPEstat, and the raw data is available in the archives. Peering with RIS ---------------- If you would like to peer with us, please fill in the form at: http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/peerreg.cgi For more information about peering with RIS, please see: https://www.ripe.net/analyse/internet-measurements/routing-information-serv… About RIS ------------- RIS aims to collect and store Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing information and make it publicly available for the Internet community. The RIPEstat tools that provide access to this data can help network operators troubleshoot routing problems by providing eBGP data collected over time without being limited to a single BGP view. RIS deploys RRCs at major Internet exchanges, where they peer with other networks. At this time, RIS has more than 750 peers at 22 different Internet exchanges. For more information, please see: https://ripe.net/ris/ If you have any further questions, please contact <ris at ripe.net> Kind Regards, Colin Petrie RIPE NCC

High amount of v6 prefixes at CATNIX and SFINX
by Johanna Ullrich 23 Apr '18

23 Apr '18

Hello! Relying on RIS data, I am currently investigating BGP announcement for IPv6 for my research. For some reason, CATNIX and SFINX members appear to announce a lot more prefixes than the others. While I found typically less than 50 /32 prefixes for the other Internet exchanges, I see almost 900 /32 for SFINX and even 9000 /32 for CATNIX. I wonder whether there is a specific reason, e.g., with respect to aggregation or policies. I am really looking forward to your reply. Thank you a lot for help!
