Monitor BGP

This tool enables network operators, researchers, and security teams to gain visibility into global BGP routing. It ingests updates from public collectors and peers, normalizes prefixes and AS paths, and provides a unified view of announcements, withdrawals, and path changes. Example: a prefix 203.0.113.0/24 observed across multiple collectors is tracked for consistency.

Core logic includes data ingestion, normalization, and metric computation. Required features: real-time visibility, per-prefix health, cross-collector correlation, and export-ready data. Optional features: alerting thresholds, historical baselines and trend analysis, multi-collector correlation, and API access for automation.

Outputs include time-series metrics, current route states, anomaly flags, and export formats (CSV, JSON). The tool uses simple rules to flag suspicious changes: unexpected origin ASN, sudden route withdrawals, or inconsistent visibility across collectors. Baselines are established from historical data to identify deviations.

Use cases range from hijack detection and prefix visibility audits to research on global routing dynamics and policy compliance. The differentiator is cross-collector correlation and automatic baseline establishment, enabling operators to shorten MTTR and improve routing reliability.
