BGP Looking Glass

Brief introduction into Public BGP Looking Glass servers and how to use them to troubleshoot real-life issues. 

One of the most common tasks performed by BGP administrator is troubleshooting of prefix propagation over the Internet. You might have originated a prefix advertisement from within your Autonomous System, but was this prefix accepted by your Upstream Peers? If it was, did your Transit peers propagate this information to the global Internet, or did the prefix get lost or summarized somewhere within their networks because you might set a wrong community? Is it possible that your prefix has been hijacked by somebody else?
Public Looks Glass (LG) and Router-Servers (RS) allow you to get an answer to these questions in a matter of seconds.
