### AI overview

This article describes the J2SW Prefix Advertisement Checker, an application that evaluates an exact IPv4 or IPv6 prefix using live BGP data. It reports observed origin ASNs from RIPE RIS collectors, collector visibility, RPKI/ROA status, and matching IRR route objects, with an optional expected origin ASN for comparison.

### Source excerpt

A prefix can appear in the global BGP table and still have a routing problem. The route may originate from the wrong ASN. Its ROA may also authorize a shorter prefix but reject the advertised prefix length. Checking each part normally means pulling data from several routing tools.

### AI overview

This article explains how the one-person network AS215248 participates in more than 90 internet exchanges across two dozen countries using hardware in Amsterdam and remote peering. It describes an open peering policy, IPv6 support, and route validation with RPKI and IRR.

### Source excerpt

A hobby AS doesn't need a rack in every city. A little hardware in Amsterdam plus remote peering goes a surprisingly long way.
