Tools such as Arbor Peakflow SP have a lot of cool traffic and routing analysis bits for internal monitoring of this sort, but it might be a bit out of your price range. Having said that, I second Chris's approach above utilizing some quagga box/low-end router (make sure you have enough memory!) and simply reflect routes from your production routers in conjunction with update message logging. If you're looking for tools that perform analysis from an exterior point-of-view, there is also BGPlay which has some cool widgetry to see particular prefixes within a user-specific time interval. Again it's using the operators route-servers so might not be of much value to you http://bgplay.routeviews.org/bgplay/ Stefan Fouant Neustar, Inc. / Principal Engineer 46000 Center Oak Plaza Sterling, VA 20166 Office: +1.571.434.5656 ▫ Mobile: +1.202.210.2075 ▫ GPG ID: 0xB5E3803D ▫ stefan.fou...@neustar.biz
