Get your IPv4 address space maps here! Visualize routing tables, monitor DNS traffic, check for misconfiguration and make sure your HTTP protocol implementation is correct. Check out the intriguingly named Web Polygraph and Squid3 tools too… I love their logo. The smokestack releasing billows of binary digits is endearing. Blue is my favorite color.
