Looking for a hardware probe
by Giuseppe Macario 25 May '22

25 May '22

Hello everyone, I would like to host a new Atlas probe (for AS203591) but I understand that RIPE is not shipping probes anymore; I applied online but nobody responded. Therefore, feel free write me an email if you have one for sale, in which case I am willing to pay via PayPal. I will also ask RIPE for a new probe ID, so the history attached to your old probe will be reset. PS: not interested in software probes. -- Giuseppe Macario, PhD https://giuseppemacario.men https://www.giuseppemacario.it

RIPE-Atlas measurements showed "No recent report available"
by Tingting Lu 25 May '22

25 May '22

Hi all, I am using RIPE-Atlas to generate some ping measurements for my testing ip recently. It worked very well until yesterday. Starting from May 23rd, most of my measurements only have results for a few probes. Most probes showed "No recent report available". Does anyone have the same problem or know what's going on there? -- Regards, Tingting Lu

Ongoing problem with DoT measurements
by Meikel Kokowski 23 May '22

23 May '22

Dear RIPE Mailing List, in the context of my final thesis I am conducting research related to DNS (Do53 and DoT) using RIPE Atlas probes. In preparation for the main measurement I issued, to around 4800 probes, DNS queries 1) over TLS [measurement ID: 41196896] and 2) over Do53 (standard) [measurement ID: 41196980] While Do53 works perfectly, DoT seems not to yield any results at all. In the RIPE Atlas forum I found a similar question (https://www.ripe.net/participate/mail/forum/ripe-atlas/PDIwMjIwMzI0MTIzMzE1…) According to that thread, a configuration error on the probes causes the problem. That post is 2 months ago and the problem seems to subsist. Could you provide an update to the current situation to this problem and a possible date for a fix? Thank you! Best, Meikel

Probe TLS stack
by Christopher Wood 15 May '22

15 May '22

Hi folks, Apologies in advance if the answer to this question is available online somewhere, but I’m wondering if anyone knows what TLS stack is used in Atlas probes, and in particular, what sort of TLS features are configurable by such probes. Best, Chris

Future of Software Anchors
by ripe.net＠toppas.net 15 May '22

15 May '22

Hi everyone, accoring to this site, a CentOS 7 installation is required for running a Software Anchor: https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/anchor-installation-vm/ But CentOS 7 will be End-of-Lifetime in two years (30. Juni 2024). https://wiki.centos.org/About/Product So it does not really make sense, to set up a new Anchor with CentOS 7, i guess. What are the plans, dear RIPE Labs? I searched the atlas mailinglist topics for "software anchor" and "centos 7" but didn't find anything. Greetings, Simon

Atlas probes, IPv6, EUI-64, and privacy
by Alexander Burke 03 May '22

03 May '22

Hello all, I couldn't help but notice that my Atlas probe is using an EUI-64 IPv6 address. It has come to light that the presence of even one device using an EUI-64 address on a network has a negative effect on privacy for the whole network: https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.08946 Thoughts? Cheers and thanks in advance, Alex

My probe's not doin' IPv6
by Edward Lewis 23 Apr '22

23 Apr '22

General question… My probe was doing IPv6 until 15 July 2021 but not it is not. Is there any way to discover why it is no longer IPv6’ing? I did change my ISP connection equipment about that time, so something did change on my end. But IPv6 works for other devices. When I go to www.ripe.net <http://www.ripe.net/> it tells me I came from an IPv6 address. The device has been pretty steady - 99.71% the last week, 99.91% for the last month (30days). It was off-line 29 minutes earlier today (the notice made me think to look), but never off line more than 10 minutes since mid-July. There’s one stretch of 34d+ of continuous uptime. Run-of-the-mill home connection via a cableTV company. Is there anyway to ask a probe why it doesn’t have an IPv6 address (via DHCP)? Ed

TLSv1.3 Support
by Antonios Chariton 23 Apr '22

23 Apr '22

I’ve ran a measurement against a host that only support TLSv1.3 ( https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/40393656/#probes ) and all probes came back with "Error: protocol_version”. Do they not support the latest version of TLS? I only seem to be able to get them to work with TLSv1.2 or lower. Thanks, Antonios

Moving on
by Philip Homburg 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

Hi Atlas Users, After ten years at the RIPE NCC it is time for me to move on. Normally, that is not something that would be announced on a public mailing list. However, I get quite a bit of email that is directly sent to me. This is to let you know that I will not be able to read future email sent to this address. I have two new colleagues who will work on probe firmware development. They are Guy Meyer <gmeyer(a)ripe.net> and Michel Stam <mstam(a)ripe.net>. I'm sure they will be happy to help. As for me, I will be <philip(a)nlnetlabs.nl> from now on. Philip Homburg

problem reusing probes
by Cristel Pelsser 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

Hi, I have a problem reusing probes from previous measurements. I’m launching experiments in pairs from the web interface. I would like to retrieve the probes selected randomly in one experiment for another measurement that takes place at the same time. My problem is that it takes time to show the measurement I created in the list of "my measurements". Even when all measurements are shown in the list of all "my measurements", the creation interface does not find all these measurement ids. So I cannot retrieve the probes I need. Is there an access problem to the measurement DB or am I doing something wrong? Cristel

Problem with DoT measurements?
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 24 Mar '22

24 Mar '22

DoT measurements seem partially broken, only 10 % of the probes do report. (See for instance #39675721.)

Facebook in Russia and a diagnostic problem
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 14 Mar '22

14 Mar '22

Around half of the RIPE Atlas probes in Russia cannot complete a TLS session with facebook.com <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39387725/>. (All the remaining tests have been done with the same set of probes, 'type': 'msm', 'value': '39387725'.) They have no problem with YouTube <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39387839>. I also did TLS tests with IP addresses instead of names, same result <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39387985> <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39388031>. There is no lying DNS resolver <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39387902>. But traceroute show no connectivity problem either, we can go to the Facebook AS from Russia <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39388122> <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/39388176>. So, I'm a bit lost: what do we observe? It does not look like censorship but not like a connectivy issue (because of depeering by Cogent and Lumen) either.

broken atlas streams
by Teun Vink 04 Mar '22

04 Mar '22

Hi, We’re seeing some issues with RIPE Atlas streams using the ripe.atlas.cousteau websocket library. Sockets seem to connect properly, but no data is received. tcpdumps show very little traffic. One of the already running receiver application (monitoring the exact same set of measurements) is receiving data, but any newly started daemon fails to receive data. Is there an issue on the RIPE Atlas infrastructure? Thanks, -- Teun Vink BIT | teun(a)bit.nl | +31 318 648 688 KvK: 09090351 | GPG: 0xFC8B25D6 | RIPE: TEUN-RIPE

My Atlas > Credits reporting wrong total daily income?
by Jaewon Kim 19 Feb '22

19 Feb '22

Hello, List! First of all, this is my first time posting to any kind of mailing list, so apologies if I did something wrong. Please let me know if so. I'm having this weird issue where 'My Atlas' page showing wrong info for "total daily income" (around 2x of what I'm actually getting). As you can see above, Atlas is reporting that this specific probe is earning 64K a day, and the total income is around 615K. However, if I see the actual credits page, None of my probes are actually earning that much. Plus, the hourly income is 13.7K, which sums up to around 330K/day. This isn't a big issue to be honest, but just got curious (and confused) with it. If anyone knows a fix for it, or why this is happening, it would be great :) Thank you! Best regards, Jaewon.

monthly information about probe availability
by MAYER Hans 14 Feb '22

14 Feb '22

Dear All, We get this monthly e-mail about probe availability. This is great. But there are some questions. What exactly is getting measured? Is this a connection to some external site? Which could mean that there are other factors that could influence the measure (i.e. that external site is down, etc.) Kind regards Hans —

Ripe Atlas Credits Request
by Sergio Ricardo Hernandez Torres 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

Hello Ripe Atlas Community: My name is Sergio R. Hernández Torres, and I’m currently a Master’s student at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, SE. A little more than a year ago, in November 2020, I was deeply inspired by RIPE's mission and RPKI route validation, thanks to a guest lecture from RIPE at KTH. At this moment, I am currently beginning to work on my Master’s Thesis and chose to do it related to RPKI Validation. To run some experiments, I’m reaching out to you to know if it is possible to obtain RIPE Atlas credits for Academic Purposes. Also, I would like to keep in touch if more RPKI or routing information is needed! My Ripe Atlas account where donations are accepted is: srht(a)kth.se<mailto:srht@kth.se> Best Regards, Sergio R. Hernández Torres Student | Master's Programme, Communication Systems KTH Royal Institute of Technology www.kth.se<http://www.kth.se/>
