Map-based visualisations for Atlas data
by Baptiste Jonglez 08 Dec '15

08 Dec '15

Hi, Is there a way to reuse and adapt the code for the maps available here? https://atlas.ripe.net/results/maps/ It could be interesting to have a generic map-based visualisation, where all probes matching a certain set of conditions would be displayed. Possible applications include: - monitor IPv6 deployment for an AS, by displaying all probes matching "asn_v6 = XX". It would probably be useful to also display probes matching "asn_v4 = XX", as a baseline, using a different color - monitor DNS resolver outage geographically, by matching on system tags like "resolving A doesn't work". - match on user tags, like "IXP" or "core", to monitor deployment of Atlas at specific locations/types of networks. In all those examples, the "time slider" functionality would be extremely useful, to see the evolution over time. It could be even nicer if the slider could move automatically, so as to provide nice animations. Is all this currently feasible, and if not, would it be hard to implement? Thanks, Baptiste

Turris Omnia as probe Platform?
by Kessler, Thomas 08 Dec '15

08 Dec '15

Dear all, some of you are probably aware of the Turris Omnia project by CZ.NIC ( https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/turris-omnia-hi-performance-open-source-… ). This might be an interesting platform for running an VM probe?! Just thought it might be worth brining it up here for discussion. Cheers Thomas

Dear colleagues, A few weeks ago we gave you a heads up about a new visualisation tool in RIPE Atlas called DomainMON, and we're pleased to announce that this is now available for all RIPE Atlas users with available credits. Please find more details on RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/suzanne_taylor_muzzin/ripe-atlas-domainmon-is… Kind regards, Chris Amin RIPE NCC

Probe power down.
by Alistair Mackenzie 07 Dec '15

07 Dec '15

Hi all, I'm currently moving house and expect my probe to be offline for approximately one week, Is there any formal channels that I must notify ripe of this other than the location change once it's back online? Thanks, Alistair

Dead probes
by Marty Strong 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

Hi, I've got 1 or 2 dead probes, they power on but I see no mac address from them. They have the first 2 lights on, but none of the others. I don't see this combination listed on https://atlas.ripe.net/about/faq/#what-do-the-lights-on-the-side-of-the-pro… Has anybody else come across this issue? Anybody know what the light combination means? Marty

location field in probe API
by Bajpai, Vaibhav 01 Dec '15

01 Dec '15

Hello, TL;DR: The probe API does not expose the probe location even if I explicitly ask for it. location: A human readable location for this probe, either explicitly specified by the probe owner, or derived from the longitude and latitude. It appears the 'location' field in the probe API is hidden by default and it must be explicitly set in the request parameters to expose location field values. However, even if I do set it, I still don't get location entries. I made multiple permutations of query requests and also tried the usage example on the API documentation webpage [1]: Get the IPv4 addresses and the usually hidden human readable location string for public probes in Germany: https://atlas.ripe.net/api/v1/probe/?country_code=de&is_public=true&fields=… What could be wrong? -- Thanks! PS: It seems, this field is also missing in the probe archive API.

Fwd: Re: Measurements delete and ping issue

I did not copy the list on this message and then realised that it is a generic answer that deserves to be seen and archived here.

Andrea, An important idea behind RIPE Atlas is that all results are re-useable. Therefore we store the results of *all* measurements as long as we possibly can because those results can be useful for other researchers even if they did not run the measurements themselves. Each result says something about the packet flow in the Internet at the particular time it was obtained. There is no way we can foresee how these results can help to answer interesting research questions and help us to understand the Internet packet layer better than we do now. For a recent example of this, please see https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/ripe-atlas-tools-hackathon-results "ASN Tryst". Therefore we do not provide the functionality of deleting measurements. The only way we foresee that results can be deleted is if we run out of storage space. Of course that one has to be careful to select the measurements one wants to re-use according to the question one wants to answer. Your measurement shows this very well. I do not recommend using your results unless the question is about reachability with RTTs under 6ms. I hope this answers your question Daniel (co-inventor of RIPE Atlas)

Measurements delete and ping issue
by Andrea Consadori 30 Nov '15

30 Nov '15

Hi all, i just start using proble atlas and i found is not possible to delete Stopped measurements from web, it's normal? i try to search on old mailing list messages and seems to be and old issue but i still cannot delete stopped masurements (for example ids: 3050379, 3034900) Another issue i see, if i create a ping measurement (id 3034899) under probes i see RTT column unreachable for every raw... but the public ip is pingable form everywhere.. maybe there's simple solutions i cannot found, if so can someone show me a good link where to found how to fix this two issues? Regards Andrea Consadori

Problem with Map Tab of DNS Measurement
by Klaus Darilion 30 Nov '15

30 Nov '15

Hi! I did a one-off DNS measurement: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/3050168/ As long as the measurement was running, I could click on the map tab. But now as the measurement is finished, the "map" tab is gone. While loading the site I see for a short time the tabs General information, Probes, Map and Results. But as soon as the site is loaded completely the Map and Probes tab are gone. Calling the map explicitely using https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/3050168/#!map does also not work. Is this a feature or a bug? Thanks Klaus
