# dnmapper - An AS-level mapping tool and BGP collector
|
|
|
|
This software
|
|
There is much to do! This software was in parts a quick hack to have a map
|
|
when the old map implementation vanished from our network.
|
|
It is implemented in Python, Django and D3.js.
|
|
|
|
## Data collection
|
|
Data collection is done via screenscraping the BIRD and Quagga/FRR cli. This is
|
|
a bad idea for longterm operations, as a) the CLI output may (and already did)
|
|
change and b) whenever something unexpected happens (e.g. a new route type /
|
|
error condition) the software has to be adjusted.
|
|
|
|
A second RIS is available, writing periodic MRT dumps and continous BGP update
|
|
message MRT dumps. These should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
## TODO
|
|
|
|
* Replace BGP data collection method
|
|
* Add WHOIS data to visualization
|
|
|
|
## Licensing
|
|
This software is licensed under the GPLv3 or later.
