Introduction LibreQoS is an open source project for monitoring and providing quality-of-experience for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and large networks. It runs as a “middle-box”, monitoring traffic that passes through it. It recently gained the ability to track individual data flows - connections between two endpoints. It’s also my favorite Open Source project, to which I contribute regularly. Public Internet IP addresses belong to an ASN - an Autonomous System Number.
