Abstract

We propose a new metaphor for the visualization of prefixes propagation in the Internet.Such a metaphor is based on the concept of topographic map and allows to put in evidencethe relative importance of the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) involved in the routing of the prefix.Based on the new metaphor we propose an algorithm for computing layouts and experiment with such algorithm on a test suite taken from the real Internet. The paper extends the visualization approachof the BGPlay service, which is an Internet routing monitoring tool widely used by ISP operators.
