Plan to Implement RIPE Atlas WiFi Measurements
by Robert Kisteleki 30 Aug '17

30 Aug '17

Dear colleagues, We wanted to update the community and let you know that we plan to start work on the proposed experiment with WiFi measurements in mid-2016. As we communicated in a recent RIPE Labs article, we will work with GÉANT as a test partner to learn more about the operational effects of introducing WiFi measurements to the RIPE Atlas system, in addition to the benefits we believe this could provide for the entire RIPE Atlas community. Please see the article for more details if you are interested: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/suzanne_taylor_muzzin/ripe-atlas-wifi-measure… We will continue to update you once we’ve begun work on this plan, and we welcome your comments in the meantime. Regards, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC

RIPE Atlas Infrastructure Maintenance (14 March)
by Paul de Weerd 13 Mar '17

13 Mar '17

Dear all, We'll carry out maintenance work on the core RIPE Atlas and RIPEstat infrastructure tomorrow (14 March 2017), approximately between 09:00 and 11:00 UTC+1. As a result, we will switch over to the reduced data set, limiting the amount of history available from the service. This affects RIPE Atlas, RIPEstat, RIS and DNSMON. We apologise for the inconvenience. Best regards, Paul de Weerd Senior Systems Engineer RIPE NCC

Atlas: DNS TCP Errors
by John 07 Mar '17

07 Mar '17

Hello Mat-wg, feature request, when preforming DNS queries over TCP would it be possible for the probe to differentiate between a timeout and a TCP Reset. Currently the result just records the following when it gets a reset[1]. `error.timeout: 5000` A similar feature to record ICMP prohibited for udp queries would also be useful but likely much harder. Thanks John [1]https://atlas.ripe.net/api/v2/measurements/7859749/results?start=14888448…
