Measurements can't be stopped

Hi, I tried to stop a measurement, which was defined as "end never". In order to stop the measurement I opened it, clicked "Settings" and unchecked "End never". But regardless what I choose as "End at" time, it always gets refused with the hint that I need to enter a valid date. For example, [ 2014-08-03 ] [ 00:00 ] is refused as invalid date/time. Is there any option to stop this measurements? Thank you! -- Greetings from Wuppertal, Germany Max Grobecker

Static IPv6 problem

Hi, I have a problem when i try to set a Static IPv6 adress i get on my probe. I get: No more than 3 static DNS values may be used at any given time for either IPv4 or IPv6. I have set: 2001:4860:4860::8888 and 2001:4860:4860::8844 as DNS. What should i do to get this to work? Regards Jonas Byström

It's surprising, that you can't manage probe remotelly when it isn't "connected" (even you can directly reach it on L3). Technically, probe runs on Linux, so you can have SSH daemon with restricted IP access running here (listenning daemon has minimal performance overhead) - by current "behavior" you simply loose any way to diagnose problem - and dependence of established tunnel is another layer, which can fail... As stated before - simple rebooting is just a *workaround* of any issue, not a solution (but it seems that's your basic recomendation). I think you should work on improvements on probe diagnostics in such cases - new hardware versions of probes seems to be more problematic compared to older probes, as I can see also on atlas mailing list. I remember, that I had to plug out/in USB flash as some step with probe before (also your recomended "solution"). Also on probe should run some kind of watchdog, which reboots probe in case of similar problem automatically - probably it doesn't run now...
