Hi, There is an open request on the IRTF's PEARG list, seeking feedback on a draft document, "Guidelines for Performing Safe Measurement on the Internet". The MAT WG has expertise and probably feedback to share. The request with appropriate pointers is here: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/pearg/-qGRRbBAZ2YAytwt4lpxVcQ7OZE/ Feedback on the draft is welcome either on their RG discuss list, or by filing issues directly against the git repo. Cheers, S.

Unauthenticated user access to RIPE Atlas
by Ben Cartwright-Cox 03 Nov '23

03 Nov '23

Hello everybody! I was wondering around what are the rules and views on “open user access” to RIPE Atlas ( as in non-authenticated users being able to make RIPE atlas measurements) I ask because as of this morning I noticed that hurricane electric’s bgp.he.net tool is now allowing users to make right atlas measurements without any authentication to RIPE Atlas, this was surprising to me as when I asked a NCC staff member at the last meeting in Berlin about doing something similar to this I was explicitly told that this would not be desired. I cannot remember who told me this ( and I don't have an easy way of finding out again ) but assuming this is allowed I will happily copy this for bgp.tools But I'd like to check with Atlas people before doing such a thing.

Hi all, RIPE87 is coming up: the meeting will take place 27 November -- 1 December. Once again, we are seeking your presentations for the next MAT WG session, scheduled on Tuesday, 28 November! Presentations for the WG session are preferably 10-15min long.

Interesting topics include (but are not limited to): recent measurement research which has an operational impact; recent operational work that may open avenues to research; projects, tools, or datasets that support either operations or research. Please submit your presentation proposal by **Friday, 27 October** by emailing us at mat-wg-chairs at ripe.net. We will make our selections and post the agenda soon after. RIPE meetings are fully hybrid with sessions facilitated through meetecho; we encourage presentations from anywhere.
