Hi Folks,
I'd like to share with you some recent work I've done on visualizing
the routing table.
http://maps.measurement-factory.com/gallery/Routeviews/
As the page says, I use the routeviews snapshots to create maps
showing the locations and size of each prefix in the table. The
IPv4 address space is mapped into 2-D with a Hilbert curve (as seen
on xkcd). I have maps for snapshots going back to early 2004 and
an animation that shows the evolution over time.
