Seven more anchors, and that makes 150!
by Vesna Manojlovic 23 Oct '15

23 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, We are proud to announce that we have reached 150 RIPE Atlas anchors! Since the previous announcement, seven new RIPE Atlas anchors have been activated: - ca-mtr-as852, hosted by TELUS in Montreal, Canada. - sg-sin-as43996, hosted by Booking.com IT Services, Singapore. - cz-prg-as6881, hosted by NIX.CZ in Prague, Czech Republic. - nl-haa-as201682, hosted by Liquid Web in Haarlem, Netherlands - de-fra-as28753, hosted by Leaseweb Network B.V. in Frankfurt, Germany. - mn-uln-as45204, hosted by GEMNET LLC in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. - ro-buh-as39107, hosted by Asociatia Interlan in Bucharest, Romania (sponsored by RIPE NCC) The map of all anchor locations is available at: https://atlas.ripe.net/anchors/map/ You can access the anchoring measurements for all anchors at: https://atlas.ripe.net/anchors/list/ And here are the logos and links to hosting companies: https://atlas.ripe.net/get-involved/community/#!tab-anchor-sponsors We are still accepting new applications from organisations interested in hosting a RIPE Atlas anchor. We are particularly interested in deploying anchors in the Middle East, Western Asia, Latin America and Africa, in order to add more geographical diversity to the measurement data. There are more organisations that want to host a RIPE Atlas anchor but don’t have the necessary funding. To learn more about sponsoring an anchor, please contact us at mcb at ripe.net To apply for your own RIPE Atlas anchor: https://atlas.ripe.net/get-involved/become-an-anchor-host/ For any other questions, please contact us at atlas at ripe.net Regards, Vesna Manojlovic -- Measurements Community Building RIPE NCC

New on RIPE Labs: Researching F-root Anycast Placement Using RIPE Atlas
by Mirjam Kuehne 14 Oct '15

14 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, Please find a new article on RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/ray_bellis/researching-f-root-anycast-placeme… In order to expand the reach of F-root, Ray Bellis looked at where queries to F-root are coming from and where it would make most sense to place new nodes. As a first step, Ray looked at the existing nodes to see how they behave and if there is anything that can be improved. He used RIPE Atlas to do this. Kind regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC

New on RIPE Labs: Real-time BGP Monitoring with Isolario and BGPlay
by Mirjam Kuehne 06 Oct '15

06 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, Please find a new article on RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/alessandro_improta/real-time-bgp-monitoring-w… The Isolario project introduces a new concept of Route Collectors to devise real-time services and attract new BGP data sources. Thanks to the integration of BGPlay, the project provides new interesting troubleshooting tools to monitor BGP routes in real-time. Kind regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC

New on RIPE Labs: A Tale of BGP Collectors and Customer Cones
by Mirjam Kuehne 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

Dear colleagues, When operators and researchers use data from BGP route collectors such as RIS and Route Views, it's not easy to tell if a path announced to a collector is an ISP's customer cone, an internal route, or one learned from peering or transit. In this new RIPE Labs post we look at what information we can currently get from BGP communities in RIS: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/emileaben/a-tale-of-bgp-collectors-and-custom… Kind regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC

Requested Feature: RIS Prefixes
by Christian Teuschel 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

Dear colleagues, In May this year there was a feature request from Job Snijders to have RIPEstat provide transitted prefixes for an ASN. See [0] for more details. Over the summer we worked on this feature. As a result we now have a new data call in the RIPEstat API called RIS Prefixes. This data call reports the prefixes for a given ASN that are seen on the AS paths between the origin and RIS. You can see an example using the RIPE NCC's ASN (AS3333): http://stat.ripe.net/data/ris-prefixes/data.json?resource=AS3333&list_prefi… The data call supports the additional parameter of tailoring the output to your needs. See [1] for more details. The data is based on data collected by the RIPE NCC's RIS network (see [2]), and the output therefore reflects the perspective of RIS. Important to interpreting the data correctly is the definition of a transit: for this dataset, a transit is defined as any ASN appearing on the AS path for a route that is not the origin. We understand that the term “transit" can also imply the business relationship between networks, which would provide a list of prefixes that could be referred to as prefixes in the customer cone of a network. At this point in time, the customer cone itself cannot be extracted from the RIS data in a way that is exact and reliable. The RIS Prefixes data call provides a SUPERSET of prefixes considered the customer cone. During the coming months we will further investigate the possibilities of determining customer prefixes with RIS/RIPEstat. Meanwhile, we welcome suggestions from the community for approaches to solve this issue. We look forward to hearing from you, Christian Teuschel & Romeo Zwart RIPE NCC [0] https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/mat-wg/2015-May/000588.html [1] https://stat.ripe.net/docs/data_api#RISPrefixes [2] https://www.ripe.net/ris
