APNIC gathers many statistics and offers them on their website. However, they provide way more data than it might initially look like, since many of the datasets are not linked from their main page.
https://rex.apnic.net/overview
Autonomous System | BGP | Dataset | Network | ToolAPNIC REx shows general information about IPv4 and IPv6 usage and delegations. It features on overview of all AS connections. This is the replacement of the earlier vizAS tool.
https://www.bgplookingglass.com/
Autonomous System | BGP | DatasetThe website contains a list of hundreds of looking glasses for various autonomous systems. All looking glasses are publicly accessible.
https://puck.nether.net/bgp/leakinfo.cgi
Autonomous System | BGP | DatasetThe website analyses RIB and BGP UPDATE information to find routing leaks. They determine a leak with the valley-free assumption, namely, if two major networks appear in the same AS_PATH. The leaks are timestamped and the faulty AS is shown.
An open-source software framework for live and historical BGP data analysis, supporting scientific research, operational monitoring, and post-event analysis.
BGP streams are freely accessible and provided by Route View, RIPE, and BGPmon.
https://bgpstream.crosswork.cisco.com/
Autonomous System | BGP | Dataset | NetworkBGP Stream is a free resource for receiving alerts about hijacks, leaks, and outages in the Border Gateway Protocol.
BGP Steam provides real-time information about BGP events. It includes information about affected IPs, ASNs, and even a replay feature how the BGP announcements changed.
https://stat.ripe.net/special/bgplay
BGP | Dataset | Network | ToolBGPlay shows a graph of the observed BGP routes. It allows replaying historical BGP announcements and displays route changes.
https://dev.hicube.caida.org/feeds/hijacks/events
BGP | Dataset | NetworkThe BGP hijacking observatory lists potential BGP hijacks. It can observe different kinds of hijacks, e.g., shorter path or more specific prefix. It lists the hijacking time, potential victims and attackers, and the affected prefix.
More details about the different hijacking methods are in the AIMS-KISMET presentation.

Autonomous System | BGP | Dataset | IP | NetworkOverview of datasets, monitors, and reports produced and organized by CAIDA. Also contains links to other datasets.
Cloudflare Radar is Cloudflares reporting website about internet trends and general traffic statistics. The website shows information about observed attacks and attack types and links to the DDoS report. General traffic statistics are reported, such as the used browser, fraction of human traffic, IP, HTTP, and TLS version.
The website also provides more detailed information on domains and IP addresses. Domains have information about age, popularity, and visitors. IP addresses have ASN and geolocation information.
More information about Cloudflare Radar is available in the introduction blogpost.
The Radar data is also available via API, for example the attack data: https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/operations/radar_get_AttacksLayer3Summary
The common wisdom is that BGP serves /24 prefixes for IPv4 and /48 prefixes for IPv6. However, this is more of a convention, than a hard rule. Larger prefixes are observed in BGP routing tables.
This website summarizes a paper about hyper specific BGP prefixes. It shows how common hyper specifics are over time for IPv4 and v6.
IP geolocation services feeding itself from geolocation databases, user provided locations, and most importantly, active RTT measurements based on the RIPE Atlas system. It also provides a nice API to query the location. It provides a breakdown on where the results stem from and how much they contribute to the overall result.
Contains a list of pricing information of different IXP.
https://pulse.internetsociety.org/
Autonomous System | BGP | Dataset | Network | ToolThe Internet Society gathers data to show the general health and availability of the internet. They measure four categories: internet shutdowns, technology use, resilience, and concentration. Under internet shutdowns, they show which countries are performing what kind of disruption, e.g., regional or national. The technology sections lists basic statistics about HTTPS, IPv6, TLS, DNSSEC.
"Is BGP safe yet?" is an effort by Cloudflare to track the deployment of RPKI filtering across different ISPs. They provide a tester on the website with which each user can test if the current ISP is filtering RPKI invalid announcements. The website includes a list of networks and if and how they use RPKI (signing and/or filtering).
More details for this project can be found in Cloudflare's blog or on the GitHub project.
The Packet Clearing House (PCH) publishes BGP data collected at more than 100 internet exchange points (IXP). The snapshot dataset contains the state of the routing tables in daily intervals.
PCH also provides raw routing data in MRT format. These contain all the update information in sorted by time.
The RIS is the main resource from RIPE featuring all kinds of datasets about AS assignments and connectivity.
Routeviews is a project by the University of Oregon to provide live and historical BGP routing data.
https://observatory.manrs.org/
BGP | Dataset | NetworkMutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) is an initiative to improve the state of routing security. The observatory shows what kind of incidents occurred and how prepared networks are, e.g., with filtering and coordination efforts. The data is available globally and comparisons between regions are available. Historic data is accessible on the website.
https://github.com/nsg-ethz/mini_internet_project
BGP | IP | Network | ToolThe mini internet project is part of the curriculum by the Networked Systems Group of ETH Zurich. It teaches the students the basic steps how to create a mini internet. It starts with the basics of intra-network routing, by setting up multiple L2 switches. Then the students have to configure L3 routers to connect multiple L2 sites together. Lastly, in a big hackathon style, the students need to connect their local network with the network of the other students, by properly configuring BGP routers and setting up routing policies.
The code and the tasks are all available in the GitHub repository.
The APNIC Blog has a nice introduction to the project too.
https://rpki-monitor.antd.nist.gov/
BGP | Dataset | RPKIThe NIST RPKI Monitor shows different statistics about RPKI adoption and about the validation status. It shows the number of validating prefixes, their history, the autonomous systems with the most VALID and INVALID prefixes and how validation changes over time.
https://peering.ee.columbia.edu/
BGP | Network | ToolPEERING is an environment where researchers and educators can play with BGP announcements in a real but sandboxed environment.
Description from the website:
The long-term goal of the PEERING system is to enable on-demand, safe, and controlled access to the Internet routing ecosystem for researchers and educators:
Contains information for some networks about peering information. This includes peering partners, transfer speeds, peering requirements and similar.
RIPEstat is a network statistics platform by RIPE. The platform shows data for IP addresses, networks, ASNs, and DNS names. This includes information such as the registration information, abuse contacts, blocklist status, BGP information, geolocation lookups, or reverse DNS names. Additionally, the website links to many other useful tools, such as an address space hierarchy viewer, historical whois information, and routing consistency checks.
The Route Origin Validation (ROV) Deployment Monitor measures how many AS have deployed ROV. It uses PEERING for BGP announcements and uses BGP monitors to see in which ASs the wrong announcements are filtered. A blogpost at APNIC describes it in more detail.

dn42 is a big dynamic VPN. It employs various Internet technologies, such as BGP, whois, DNS, etc.
Users can experiment with technology, they normally would not use in a separated environment.
Mostly different hackerspaces participate in the dn42 network, such as different locations of the CCC.
