Diamond-Miner 💎
D-Miner is the first Internet-scale system that captures a multipath view of the topology. By combining and adapting state-of-the-art multipath detection and high speed randomized topology discovery techniques, D-Miner permits discovery of the Internet’s multipath topology in 2.5 days1 when probing at 100kpps.2
🚀 Quickstart
diamond-miner is a Python library to build large-scale Internet topology surveys.
It implements the Diamond-Miner algorithm to map load-balanced paths,
but it can also be used to implement other kind of measurements such as Yarrp-style traceroutes.
To get started, install Diamond-Miner and head over to the documentation:
# Requires Python 3.10+
pip install diamond-miner
Publication
Diamond-Miner has been presented and published at NSDI 2020.
Since then, the code has been refactored and separated in the diamond-miner and caracal repositories.
The code as it was at the time of the publication is available in the diamond-miner-cpp and diamond-miner-wrapper repositories.
