Macroscopic Internet Topology Data Kit (ITDK)


ITDK 2016-03
 

For the latest ITDK as well as other historical releases, see the main ITDK page.

This page describes the ITDK release 2016-03, which consists of

  • two related router-level topologies,
  • router-to-AS assignments,
  • geographic location of each router, and
  • DNS lookups of all observed IP addresses.

This ITDK is produced from active measurements conducted on our Archipelago (Ark) measurement infrastructure. For the router-level topology, we used a subset of the IPv4 Routed /24 Topology Dataset, which is collected continuously. Specifically, we obtained the raw IPv4 topology by performing traceroutes to randomly-chosen destinations in each routed /24 BGP prefix using 111 Ark monitors located in 44 countries on Mar 13-28, 2016.
