RIPE Atlas now includes a new path analysis tool that makes it easier to understand how traceroute paths evolve over time. By comparing runs side by side, it highlights where the path changed and what kind of change it was. This gives you a fast, visual starting point for incident investigation, validation work, and troubleshooting without having to manually scan hop-by-hop traceroute output.

By identifying protected ASes and prefixes via four BGP AS-path patterns in RIS/RouteViews, we provide an initial overview of adoption across the Internet.
