INX operates two looking glass services that provide different views of the INXes to you.
INX-ZA Route Collector
An integrated web based looking glass which can be used for any of the INXes is available at:
This is built on Alice-lg, and provides an unfiltered view of routes that are received by all peers. This is exceptionally useful if you want to do a quick search across all of the INXes. You are able to search based on AS, route prefix, or peer ip address, in an intuitive way that does need you to interpret syntax from any particular vendor. The looking glass operates a 5min cache, that helps us to prevent abuse. Be aware that route queries may be slightly delayed, but an intuitive timer, on the top right will alert you to when the next refresh is meant to happen.

This is a subset of the actual peers that are available at each of the INXes; ie. only peers that are actively peering with the route collectors in each of the INX locations, will be visible here. |
INX-ZA Route Server view
We also provide a more detailed view of what (internal) view of what the state of each of the BGP Route Servers looks like. This is available at
and is particularly useful to peers who want to:
- verify that their filtering policies work
- verify the state of their RPKI advertisements
- understand why a route may be filtered by the BGP-RS service
Other Looking Glass Services
Additionally, Packet Clearing House also provide a different and historic view into each of the INXes that they connect to.
The Routeviews Project also runs a route collector at JINX which can be queried in various ways.
