Overview of RIS dBase structure
•Each RRC has its own dBase
•Tables for BGP updates: ‘ryyyymmdd’
•Tables  for RIB dumps: ‘lribyyyymmdd’
•These have foreign keys pointing to ‘Prefix’, ‘Aspath’ & ‘Peer’ tables
•‘Prefix’ stores all prefixes seen by the RIS
•‘Aspath’ stores all aspaths seen by the RIS
•‘Peer’ keeps all information about BGP peers
•‘Updtlist’ is stand-alone and, as mentioned, logs all insertion processes
