Plan to Implement RIPE Atlas WiFi Measurements
by Robert Kisteleki 09 Oct '17

09 Oct '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

Reporting incorrect locations
by Marty Strong 30 Jan '17

30 Jan '17

Hi RIPE Atlas folks, Is there somewhere we can go to report a suspected incorrect location of an Atlas probe? This probe: https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/16578/ Is marked as in China, but is clearly in Australia. I couldn’t see anywhere I should report this. Marty

high v6 user-base, less atlas probes
by Bajpai, Vaibhav 28 Jan '17

28 Jan '17

Hello, -- sorry for cross-posting Here is a list of top 20 countries that have a large v6 user-base [*] but are underrepresented by RIPE Atlas due to less number of deployed dual-stacked probes. Consider hosting a dual-stacked probe in these regions to help remove the region-based bias that v6 studies using RIPE Atlas may otherwise have: Full paper available here: http://goo.gl/hWGveA (§4) +----+------------+-----------| | CC | v6 Users | v6 Probes | |-----+----+------------+-----------| | 01 | BE | 56.48 % | 2.82 % | | 02 | LU | 35.23 % | 0.61 % | | 03 | GR | 33.66 % | 1.39 % | | 04 | CH | 33.48 % | 3.82 % | | 05 | PT | 29.01 % | 0.74 % | | 06 | IN | 22.25 % | 0.09 % | | 07 | US | 33.00 % | 13.21 % | | 08 | DE | 40.07 % | 21.25 % | | 09 | EC | 18.76 % | 0.04 % | | 10 | JP | 19.69 % | 1.35 % | | 11 | GB | 24.63 % | 7.00 % | | 12 | EE | 16.55 % | 0.26 % | | 13 | CA | 17.83 % | 1.91 % | | 14 | FI | 16.68 % | 1.39 % | | 15 | MY | 14.90 % | 0.13 % | | 16 | IE | 13.22 % | 0.87 % | | 17 | NO | 14.02 % | 1.83 % | | 18 | BR | 12.56 % | 0.83 % | | 19 | AU | 12.76 % | 1.09 % | |-----+----+------------+-----------| [*] The estimation of number of IPv6 users is taken from APNIC dataset: http://labs.apnic.net/dists/v6dcc.html -- Vaibhav -------------------------- Vaibhav Bajpai www.vaibhavbajpai.com Postdoctoral Researcher TU Munich, Germany --------------------------

RIPE Atlas v1 APIs have been decommissioned
by Robert Kisteleki 20 Jan '17

20 Jan '17

Dear All, As we've been announcing it for a while now (see https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-atlas/2016-September/003017.ht… and https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-atlas/2017-January/003128.html) the v1 APIs were to be decommissioned by the end of last year / early this year. This step actually happened on Wednesday this week (18 January, around 14h CET). This means that queries to these APIs give 404s (for GETs) and 405s (for other methods, which we may change to 404 instead). This is also the cause for the issues Stéphane was experiencing. Full documentation on the v2 APIs and other features are available at https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/ Apologies for not sending this mail already on Wednesday. Regards, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC

traceroute measurement with abnormally small RTT
by Wenqin SHAO 19 Jan '17

19 Jan '17

Dear list, I recently found a ‘weird’ traceroute measurement record in the sense that: with paris id set, it has different IP addresses for a given hop; after it reached the destination, it tried one more hop; the final hop reported abnormally small RTT. I’d appreciate your views on how this happened. Here is how to identify the measurement in question: (the concerned record is as well provided at the end the mail) from ripe.atlas.cousteau import AtlasResultsRequest filters = dict(msm_id=5010, probe_ids=[10460], start=1482177890, stop=1482177900) _, results = AtlasResultsRequest(**filters).create() It’s a IPv4 traceroute measurement toward DNS b root, 192.228.79.201. What you’ll see is: starting from hop 14, the 3 measurements for the same hop come from different IP address: hop 14: 184.105.80.202, 72.52.92.122 hop 15: 72.52.92.122, 216.218.223.28 hop 16: 216.218.223.28, 130.152.181.189 hop 17: 130.152.181.189, 206.117.5.22 hop 18: 206.117.5.22, 192.228.79.201 hop 19: 192.228.79.201 My first doubt is with Paris traceroute is it still possible that response IP can change due to LB mechanism on the returning path? At hop 18, the traceroute actually already reached the destination, but it continued to perform the hop 19, why? At hop 19, there is one measurement from 192.228.79.201 reporting abnormally small RTT of 0.449ms. How come? Can that happen to other measurements as well, under what circumstances? The above listed neighbouring hops always share one IP address, which makes it seem like a data formatting issue. Is there a known bug? Thanks in advance for your attention.

Hi everyone, I host a probe but do not create measurements. As such, I have a large surplus of unused credits. Is anyone in need of credits and would like for me to transfer them?

Maximum daily spending boundaries?
by Sebastian Castro 12 Jan '17

12 Jan '17

Hi: While scheduling a few one-off measurements, I'm constantly hitting the "Maximum daily spending" limit, however I don't have any ongoing measurements and just a handful of one-off measurements going at a expense of ~5000 credits each. When is the daily spending is reset? Midnight in some time zone? Something different? This case seems to be a race condition or something like that, as few measurements attempts actually go through, while the rest is rejected. A consistent behavior seems to be "from here no other measurement will succeed" Cheers! -- Sebastian Castro Technical Research Manager NZRS Ltd. desk: +64 4 495 2337 mobile: +64 21 400535

Maximum (unknown) spending limit?
by Sebastian Castro 11 Jan '17

11 Jan '17

Happy New Year RIPE Atlas Users: Executing some measurements today, it started rejecting them with the message: Executing this measurement request would violate your maximum daily spending limit of {max} credits. Please stop some of your currently running measurements and try again. It's startling the {max} credits, like a template that didn't get replaced when processing the message, not the message itself as it's documented. A little 2017 bug perhaps? Cheers! -- Sebastian Castro Technical Research Manager NZRS Ltd. desk: +64 4 495 2337 mobile: +64 21 400535
