What it does
hyperglass is an open-source looking-glass application exposing selected BGP, ping and traceroute views from an operator's network.
hyperglass lets a network operator expose selected BGP, ping and traceroute views through a web looking glass and REST API. Configure the devices, commands and VRFs that should be visible, then apply per-VRF target allow or deny rules. Querying several devices can compare viewpoints inside the operator’s own network. Supported router platforms and optional SSH proxy access are documented, while browser DNS-over-HTTPS resolves FQDN queries. The published results inherit those device, command and target choices; they are not a global reachability guarantee. Use documentation matching the deployment, since the introduction marks the 2.0 documentation as still in development.
Strengths
- Configurable network views across several router platforms
