APNIC Member Meeting Seoul, Korea, 3 March 2000APNIC Routing SIGDiscussion Paper: The RIPE-NCC Routing Information ServiceorWhere would you have gone yesterday? Antony Antony and Henk UijterwaalRIPE-NCC, Amsterdam, The NetherlandsRouting decisions between ASs is derived from reachability information exchanged via routing protocols (BGP) between these AS's as well as local policies. The Routing Information Service (RIS) is a new project at the RIPE-NCC. The goal of the RIS is to collect time-stamped BGP updates from default-free border routes of many ASs, at topologically interesting network points. These updates will be stored in a database that can be queried interactively by the community. The information stored in the RIS can be used, amongst other things, to understand network reachability from remote locations for tracing routing problems of the past, for reality checks of routing policies registered in the various Routing Registries and for statistical analysis. This presentation will introduce the RIS project in more detail and show some first results based on the first development version of this service.
