Apologies for straying off topic, Years ago several tools and sites were available for troubleshooting BGP routing tables and viewing reachability over the Internet. I remember using a site that, when you provided an ASN or IP address, you received a tree-graph showing multi-hop peer points and latency statistics from dozens of sources all over the internet. I know a lot of these sites went away after the release of the vulnerability with the BGP's peering process was disclosed. Some of the sites I bookmarked advertised that they would return once a more secure way of offering this information was worked out. They eventually just went away (example being http://nitrous.digex.net). Did anything replace them? What are some of the tools and sites you use to test if you network blocks are being seen where they should be? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
