Troubleshooting Tools - Route Servers and Looking Glasses

One of my favorite Internet troubleshooting website's is http://traceroute.org. It hosts a collection of links to BGP Looking Glasses and Route Servers all over the Internet. This is extremely useful when trying to track down why people in various parts of the Internet cannot reach your public IP space by being able to make sure that the routes that you are advertising are propagated properly and that someone else is not stepping on your routes.

Most of the providers even have the ability to ping and traceroute from various points around the world as well which is sometimes helpful as well.
