### Staging/testing ROAs
You can use BGPalerter to test ROAs before deploying them for real.
How:
- enable [connectorRISDump](configuration.md#connectorrisdump) (optional but useful);
- add the "ROA" in the VRP file using the JSON format described above;
- be sure there is a prefix rule in config.yml covering the prefix of the ROA;
- leave BGPalerter on for some time.
You will get notified if your new staged roa conflicts with what announced at the BGP level.
If you are starting BGPalerter after you already created the VRP file, by enabling connectorRISDump you would be able to get an immediate feedback based on a BGP dump. In any case, new BGP updates are going to be processed in real-time and compared with the VRP file provided.
