Ants Watch # ants watch is a DHT client monitoring tool. It is able to log the activity of all nodes in a DHT network by carefully placing ants in the DHT keyspace. For nodes to utilize the DHT they need to perform routing table maintenance tasks. These tasks consist of sending requests to several other nodes close to oneself in the DHT keyspace. ants watch ensures that at least one of these requests will always hit one of the deployed ants.
