Dear colleagues, The DNS Monitoring Service (DNSMON) has been providing a comprehensive, objective and up-to-date overview of the quality of various global and regional DNS operators' services since 2003. We are in the process of integrating DNSMON within RIPE Atlas and the beta version of the new DNSMON is now publicly available: https://atlas.ripe.net/dnsmon We have also published a RIPE Labs article detailing what’s changed in the new DNSMON: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/fatemah_mafi/an-updated-dns-monitoring-service We invite you all to try the new service and provide your feedback. We’re confident that the new DNSMON will continue to meet your needs and hope that you'll be happy with the new features.
