hyperglass Network Looking Glass on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Networking
hyperglass, the modern open source network looking glass, letting your peers and customers answer their own routing questions, ready the moment it boots.
Overview
hyperglass is the modern open source network looking glass: the public web page a network operator publishes so that peers, customers and downstream networks can run read only diagnostic queries against the operator's own routers without holding an account on the network. It answers BGP route, BGP community, BGP AS path, ping and traceroute questions across Cisco, Juniper, Arista, Nokia, Huawei, MikroTik, VyOS, BIRD, FRR and more, and presents them through a genuinely polished interface rather than the hand rolled script this category is known for.
It suits internet service providers, internet exchanges, transit providers and content networks who want routing questions answered without a support ticket, and who would rather publish a tool they are happy to put their name on.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg delivers hyperglass fully installed behind an nginx reverse proxy, with Redis as its state store and query cache and every service managed by systemd, so a working looking glass answers within minutes of launch. Because a looking glass is deliberately public and runs commands on your routers for anonymous callers, the image ships its protections switched on rather than leaving them to you: query submission is rate limited per source address, identical queries are served from cache instead of being re run against your routers, and queries aimed at private, loopback, link local, multicast or reserved address space are refused before any router is contacted. No router credential and no operator credential ship in the image, only clearly labelled placeholders; each instance generates its own operator password on first boot into a file only root can read. The image is hardened, fully patched and pinned to a known release, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 support.
Common uses
- A public looking glass for an ISP or internet exchange
- Letting peers and customers troubleshoot routing without a support ticket
- Read only BGP route, ping and traceroute queries against your own routers
