Deprecating the old measurement UI
by Robert Kisteleki 09 Jan '15

09 Jan '15

Dear all, In October last year, we introduced a new UI for browsing and scheduling measurements. For details, see: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/suzanne_taylor_muzzin/ripe-atlas-new-measurem… Your feedback about this was predominantly positive, and we’d like to thank everyone who helped this development with suggestions and bug reports. As stated at the time, we plan to deprecate and eventually remove the old interface (both the UI and the "API" it used). Our timeline is the following: 1. We'll make the new UI the default, and remove links to the old UI from the RIPE Atlas main menu, around 21 January. The old pages will still be accessible if one reaches them from somewhere else, such as a browser bookmark or hard-coded scripts. 2. Around the beginning of March, we'll remove the old pages from the system (/atlas/udm.html and related pages). This step will include the "deep links" that some of our users directly access to schedule and manage measurements from scripts (notably /atlas/*udm*.json). We'd like to encourage all of our users to switch to the new UI and API in the following weeks, if you haven't already done so. As always, we're happy to answer any questions or hear any feedback you might have. Regards, Robert Kisteleki, for the RIPE Atlas team

Dear all, we are happy to invite you to the first RIPE Atlas open data hackathon! In short: various groups will come together during the long weekend in Amsterdam, to make new visualisations (or modify existing ones) based on RIPE Atlas data, and to give that SW back to the community. We are inviting: programers, designers, operators, data-lovers, hackers, students... help us spread the word! Comcast is generously offering prizes and some coverage for travel expenses for several people -- to be awarded/selected by a jury. Dates: 27-28-29 March 2015 (Friday to Sunday) How to apply: https://www.ripe.net/s/XUJy More information, as always, in the RIPE Labs article: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/suzanne_taylor_muzzin/ripe-atlas-hackathon-20… Hope to see you there!

Bug on credit expenditure?
by Sebastian Castro 19 Dec '14

19 Dec '14

Hi: I've created 12 one-off traceroute measurements today, each measurement requesting 38 probes. According to the results page, the number of credits per measurement is 60, at 38 probes, we got 2280 credits. Any further attempt to create new measurements returned error 104: "Executing this measurement request would violate your maximum daily spending limit of 2200000.0 credits" Unless my math is horribly wrong, or the message is incorrect, I'm well under the 2.2 million credits daily limit. Is there a bug somewhere that's miscounting the usage of credits? I have enough credits in my account to pamper myself with measurements :) Cheers, -- Sebastian Castro Technical Research Manager .nz Registry Services (New Zealand Domain Name Registry Limited) desk: +64 4 495 2337 mobile: +64 21 400535

MAT-WG proposal for WLAN measurements on RIPE Atlas
by Brook Schofield 10 Dec '14

10 Dec '14

MAT-WG, thankyou for giving me the opportunity to present on "The Value of WLAN Measurements for the R&E Community" at the Measurement and Tools Working Group at RIPE69. You can find my presentation and stenography logs at: https://ripe69.ripe.net/presentations/91-eduroam-and-Atlas-RIPE69.pdf https://ripe69.ripe.net/archives/steno/40 To progress this work within the RIPE NCC Atlas development team I'd like your input into the following five (5) points: #1: For "opt-in" WLAN measurements to be enabled on RIPE Atlas As a point of clarification (and reiterated by Daniel Karrenberg) the intention is that ALL v3 probes will be capable of WLAN measurements - but measurements will ONLY be turned on by a probe host. #2: WLAN measurements will support associating to an "open" or 802.1X protected network for the purposes of performing a measurement As an active monitoring network the Atlas probes WILL NOT scan and report on all/available SSIDs. It will ONLY associate with EXPLICITLY defined SSIDs listed in the measurement. For eduroam quality purposes the success/failure of an 802.1X associations is initially the most interesting part of the measurement in determining whether sites are correctly deploying this service. There will be results related to the authentication process. #3: Any measurements performed over the wireless interface are aligned with a request to associate/authenticate to a particular network. The wireless interface will be connected only for particular tests bundled with the association to an SSID. All other tests will be performed via the wired interface as is currently the case. #4: The schedule for implementation will be determined by the RIPE NCC R&D team ...but hopefully your support for this work will allow them to prioritise this work while not jeopardising the other commitments the team has made to the community. #5: This proposal is inline with your understanding of "WiFi measurements" on the Atlas roadmap I'd be particularly interested in your feedback on whether you thought that the WiFi Measurements listed in the http://roadmap.ripe.net/ripe-atlas/ would accomplish the above or something completely different. My feeling from the room was that the above was largely accepted. I'd appreciate those that voiced their support to also do this on the mailing list again. If there's any confusion I'm willing to clarify further.

Dead Atlas Probe (TP-Link)
by Florian Streibelt 08 Dec '14

08 Dec '14

Hi, I got a probe returned that was not able to connect to the Atlas network. The probe was doint nothing for 2 days, only the leftmost LED (Power) was on, nothing else seems to happen. I also had to learn, that after the probe was not working, the user cleared the USB-Stick. Is there a way to resurrect the probe? Also the probe should be re-added to my ambassador account, if possible. Greetings, Florian -- Florian Streibelt, Dipl.-Inf. building MAR, 4th floor, room 4.004 Fachgebiet INET - Sekr.

Hi The RIPE Atlas hosts earn credit for the time their probes remain connected. I think it could be better to receive additional credit whenever someone uses that probe to make measurement. And if crowded probes be more expensive, we can distribute the load between same probes better. -- Shahin Gharghi

A short note to say 'thank-you' for the ability to configure the origination of an email message when the probe under my supervision has been offline for a short while. I was doing some work on my firewall today, and I neglected to re-plug the probe back into the USB port for power. The email informed me of my transgression. :) Mike.

Software Probs
by Shahin Gharghi 29 Nov '14

29 Nov '14

Dear RIPE Atlas team I want to ask why don't you make software probes? RIPE NCC have to spend a lot of money on RIPE Atlas. They can easily make RIPE Atlas VMWare image or an RPM,deb package and even windows service. So people can install them on their servers. The other way to save probes is making probes multi-home. For example I have 4 probes in one place to monitor 4 different IP prefixes and paths. I know because of the hardware limits we can't use sub-interfaces but we can set 4 IP addresses manually and add 4 any route by the source, then we can save 3 other probes. -- Shahin Gharghi
