The Python Routeing Toolkit (`PyRT') enables routeing information in a network to be collected. The purpose of this software is to enable routeing information in a network to be collected. This package currently supports BGPv4 and ISIS and will dump MRTD format files. It also supports parsing of MRTD TABLE_DUMP files (as available from, eg., RouteViews and RIPE/RIS). A number of utilities for manipulating these dumps are also provided.

PyRT is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2. A copy is contained within this distribution in the file COPYING.
