Routing overview
Query an ASN, a single IP or a CIDR prefix.
Observed BGP data is not the same as the complete Internet
RIPE RIS route collectors receive BGP information from many peers around the world. The result is a broad and useful operational view, but every collector has its own perspective and visibility changes over time.
This tool shows observed paths instead of inventing a route
The previous implementation attempted to simulate a path between two ASNs. This version removes that concept. Looking Glass results come from paths actually reported to RIPE RIS collectors.
RPKI validity belongs to a prefix + origin ASN combination
A public or routable IP is not automatically RPKI valid. The validation endpoint compares a specific prefix and origin ASN with Route Origin Authorizations and returns valid, invalid ASN, invalid length or unknown.
“Bogon” is displayed with a more precise classification
Instead of treating every non-global address as one generic category, the page identifies common private, loopback, link-local, documentation, multicast, benchmark and reserved ranges for IPv4 and IPv6.
