## Description

A suite of administrative tools for analyzing BGP paths, calculating IP ranges, and managing protocol and DNS references. It functions as a network administration toolkit providing web-based utilities for calculating subnets, resolving IP addresses, and diagnosing routing issues.

The project provides specialized analysis for Autonomous System numbers and BGP path attributes, alongside tools for detecting and bypassing carrier-grade NAT restrictions. It also includes a reverse DNS tool for generating zone formats and performing PTR record lookups.

Capabilities cover network planning and design, including CIDR and subnet parameter calculations, IPv4 and IPv6 address interpretation, and protocol references for TCP/UDP ports and ICMP message types. The toolkit also includes diagnostic utilities for MTU performance testing, IP ownership identification, and the creation of Access Control Lists.
