## What is hyperglass?
|
|
|
|
<strong style={{ color: "#ff5e5b" }}>hyperglass</strong> is an open source network looking glass written
|
|
by a network engineer for other network engineers. The purpose of a looking glass is to provide customers,
|
|
peers, and complete strangers with unattended visibility into the an operator's network.
|
|
|
|
hyperglass was created with the lofty goal of benefiting the internet community at-large by providing a faster, easier, and more secure way for operators to provide looking glass services to their customers, peers, and other network operators.
