Hi, while reviewing projects with Pedro, we thought that this might be possible to combine with some of the already existing features in TraceMON: > 5a. Comparing IPv4 and IPv6 traceroute paths > by Petros Gigis > > Create a visualization to compare IPv4 and IPv6 traceroute paths, highlighting the differences between these paths. For example, it would be interesting to observe differences in IP-level/AS-level paths in terms of traffic locality; e.g., IPv4 paths from ASX to ASY staying inside a country while IPv6 paths are leaving it. Moreover, this visualization would help the network operators and the academic community understand the differences in IPv4 vs. IPv6 routing, on the data plane. Furthermore, some kind of statistics could be created based on the visualization (similar to the Eyeball Jedi approach (sg-pub.ripe.net/petros/eyeball-jedi) to compare country ecosystems at a larger scale. Finally, comparing the IPv4 ASN of the endpoint probes (as given by the RIPE Atlas platform) with their IPv6 ASNs, would potentially reveal native IPv6 support on the AS vs. support from IPv6 providers. Massimo & Emile, could you care to comment? Petros, Steve, Jasper & Pedro, and aevryone else on site tomorrow, interested in this project - let's consider TraceMON... https://labs.ripe.net/Members/massimo_candela/tracemon-traceroute-visualisation-network-debugging-tool https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/tracemon Thanks, Vesna
