by Vesna Manojlovic 08 Sep '14

08 Sep '14

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. Please send your comments and questions to the DNS Working Group Mailing List at dns-wg(a)ripe.net. Kind regards, Vesna Manojlovic Measurements Community Building RIPE NCC

Net Neutrality measurements
by Georg Chytil 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

Dear collegues, I sympathize with the cause for net measurements, and the RIPE Atlas project in particular. I´d like to draw your attention to the use of net measurement infrastructure as a means of documenting net neutrality, and a consulation of BEREC in this context: http://berec.europa.eu/eng/news_consultations/ongoing_public_consultations/… I´d appreciate if RIPE got involved in this field before less desireable and competent parties do ;-) Maybe comment on net neutrality on https://atlas.ripe.net/about/future-plans/ ? Kind Regards #g

Use case for RIPE Atlas: DNS service disruption in Turkey
by Vesna Manojlovic 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

Dear all, one of our most active users, Stephane Bortzmeyer, performed RIPE Atlas (and other) measurements to collect the data for his analysis, published in a blog post yesterday: "Hijacking of public DNS servers in Turkey, through routing" http://www.bortzmeyer.org/dns-routing-hijack-turkey.html Thank you for this interesting use-case! This is a call for the rest of the community to let us know if you have done some measurements or analysis to solve your problem, or to better understand a network-event - please share it with us. We are also interested in re-publishing your stories on RIPE Labs. You can find the previous articles here: https://labs.ripe.net/atlas Regards, Vesna

LACNIC (UY) has joined RIPE Atlas anchors
by Michela Galante 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

Dear RIPE Atlas users, We're happy to announce that another RIPE Atlas anchor has joined the network and is now available as a target for probe hosts conducting their own user-defined measurements. The new anchor is called uy-mvd-as28000 and it is hosted by LACNIC in Montevideo, Uruguay. Congratulations to LACNIC! This is the first anchor in Latin America and the first one hosted by an RIR on behalf of the RIPE NCC. Anchoring measurements (ping, ping6, traceroute and traceroute6) are scheduled towards this anchor from all the other anchors as well as several hundred probes, providing a continual overview of regional reachability. Results of these measurements are available as raw data in JSON format, and visualised on the map and "seismograph" with many configurable features. You can access the anchoring measurements for all anchors at: https://atlas.ripe.net/anchors/list/ Learn more about RIPE Atlas anchors at: https://atlas.ripe.net/about/anchors/ Thank you for participating in RIPE Atlas! Kind regards, Measurements Community Building Team RIPE NCC mcb(a)ripe.net

400 Bad Request
by Wilfried Woeber 22 Mar '14

22 Mar '14

Hi folks, I had a look at the list of my ambassador probes and noticed that one of them is currently listed as being off-line (ID 12734) The probe ID is rendered as a link, with this URL: https://atlas.ripe.net/ambassadors/probes/%7B%%20url%20'probe-detail'%20pk=record.prb_id%20%7D%7D which comes back with " Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. " Just fyi, no harm done :-) Cheers, Wilfried

8.8.8.8 hijack and ripe atlas
by Jared Mauch 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

It appears there are some public measurements like #1002630, and i'm curious if someone is able to look at the latency and TTL numbers of the transport side and observe the localized hijacking of 8.8.8.8. The dataset is somewhat huge and i'm not a json master so trying to discern if there is evidence in there is something i'm looking at. - Jared
