MRT
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
MRT is a format for storing information related to the state of Internet routers, especially BGP-related information. It originated in 1999[1] as part of the development of the Multi-Threaded Routing Toolkit, from which it takes its name, but the format has outlived the original program, which ceased development in 2005[2]. It was standardized in RFC 6396 in 2011.
