I'd like to gain some global visibility on where packets come from/go to.
Can you "see" when a packet goes through some major carrier, across a border or through the ocean? I tried some tools like visual traceroute but I think the results are not that reliable. I did a traceroute from AWS france to different locations (russia, UK, south east asia) and each time traceroute went to the same place in the US then sometimes coming back to the Netherlands and then for example going to Russia. Could this be correct? I guess maybe just the geoip database has some error where one of the intermediate routers is wrongly located in the US.
Are there any better tools?
