Documentation
The Routing Information Service (RIS) is a RIPE NCC project to collect and store Internet routing data. The data is then made available to the Internet community for troubleshooting and research.
- The RIS deploys Remote Route Collectors (RRCs) at many Internet Exchanges
- These RRCs peer with local operators to collect routing information
- All information is stored and inserted into a database
- To limit the size of the database, data is discarded after three months
- The raw data itself, dumped by our BGP daemon software (Quagga), is never discarded
The RIS peers from AS12654. Routes collected by the RIS are not used for routing on the RRC.
The RIS data can be accessed through a set of tools, each having a particular purpose.
The RIS has over 600 peers at 15 locations. This gives us a very large and unique view of the Internet. If you are present at one of the RIS locations and do not yet peer with the RIS, you can sign up using our peering form.
If you have any questions, please e-mail us at ris@ripe.net.
