Route Monitoring: Pointers

Route Monitoring: Pointers

Software

IRRToolset

IRRToolSet is a suite of policy analysis tools. It is implemented in C++ on a UNIX platform. IRRToolSet grew out of RAToolSet and was maintained by MERIT, RIPE NCC, and ISC (Internet Systems Consortium) over time.

IRRd (Internet Routing Registry Daemon)

"IRRd is a freely available streamlined, stand-alone Internet Routing Registry database server. IRRd supports both RIPE-181 and RPSL routing registry syntaxes."

MRT

The Multi-Threaded Routing Toolkit contains (among other things) a BGP-4(+) implementation for Unix systems (a Win32 port is in the workds) that could be used to gather real-time routing information from BGP routers. Having this on a workstation makes it possible to compare actual routing information with registered policies.
