It connects to the RIPEstat's BGPlay API and retrieves a RIS dump about the monitored resources. The retrieved dump is 2 hours old, due to limitations on the API side.

Without this connector, when you start BGPalerter the monitoring will start based on new BGP updates. This means that you will not receive alerts before a new BGP update is propagated; e.g., if one of your prefixes is already hijacked when you start BGPalerter, you will not get notified immediately.
This connector runs only in the two following conditions:
- you enable it in the config.yml (commented out by default);
- you didn't start BGPalerter in the last two hours.
