Show HN: Explore ASN Relationships and BGP Route History with Real Internet Data https://bit.ly/4qCro6v

Show HN: Explore ASN Relationships and BGP Route History with Real Internet Data Hi HN, I’ve been working on a side project called ipiphistory.com. It’s a searchable explorer for: – ASN relationships (provider / peer / customer) – BGP route history – IP to ASN mapping over time – AS path visibility – Organization and geolocation data The idea started from my frustration when explaining BGP concepts to junior engineers and students — most tools are fragmented across multiple sources (RouteViews, RIPE RIS, PeeringDB, etc.). This project aggregates and indexes historical routing data to make it easier to: – Understand how ASNs connect – Explore real-world routing behavior – Investigate possible hijacks or path changes – Learn BGP using real data It’s still early and I’d really appreciate feedback from the HN community — especially on usability and features you’d like to see. Happy to answer technical questions about data ingestion and indexing as well. https://bit.ly/4auRK4j February 14, 2026 at 12:12AM
