BGP Network Prefix Monitoring
Monitor your BGP announcements without leaving Linear. See what prefixes are live and announced right now.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
BGP Active Prefixes API
Tool to retrieve ipv4 or ipv6 prefixes currently announced on bgp. use when inspecting bgp routing announcements for a given asn.
Why this helps
Network operators check BGP announcements manually and lose track of what's actually live. State changes happen but go unnoticed without constant watching.
- See all active prefixes your ASN announces without manual checks
- Catch unauthorized BGP hijacks by monitoring live state
- Track IPv4 and IPv6 announcements in one place
- Keep network topology changes documented in Linear
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Linear workspace and Big Data Cloud BGP APIs to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a BGP monitoring issue is created, retrieve all active prefixes announced by this ASN and add them to the issue.'
- 3Select 'Issue Created' as your trigger.
- 4Route results to your #network Slack channel or keep them in Linear for record-keeping.
- 5Test by creating a network issue with a known public ASN (e.g., Cloudflare or your own) and watch Notis list active prefixes.
Questions about this workflow
What's the difference between IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes?
IPv4 are traditional IP ranges (like 1.2.3.0/24). IPv6 are newer, longer format (like 2001:db8::/32). Modern networks announce both.
How often is the data updated?
BGP data is typically current within minutes. Notis pulls the latest announced state at the time of the issue.
Can we use this to detect hijacking?
Yes. If unexpected prefixes appear in the live list, something might be wrong. Compare against your known announced prefixes to spot anomalies.

Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
BGP Active Prefixes API
Tool to retrieve ipv4 or ipv6 prefixes currently announced on bgp. use when inspecting bgp routing announcements for a given asn.
Private Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Reverse Geocoding With Timezone API
Tool to return reverse geocoding and time zone info for given coordinates. use when you need both locality details and timezone data in one call.
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Country by IP Address API
Tool to geolocate an ip address and retrieve country details and demographics. use when you need country-level data after obtaining the target ip address.
Private Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Country Info API
Tool to fetch detailed country information by iso code. use when you need localized names, currencies, regions, and other metadata for a country.
