Is "Prepend probe's ID" checkbox working?
by Willem Toorop 12 Mar '14

12 Mar '14

Hi, In the web-interface DNS UDM, there is checkbox "Prepend probe's ID". Is this working already? Where does it prepend the ID? I expected it to prepend to the query name (i.e. Argument), but I couldn't see it working. Regards, -- Willem

Searching for public measurements
by Sebastian Castro 12 Mar '14

12 Mar '14

Hi: I want to search for specific public measurements for hosts that are most likely be monitored at this point. Is there are way to do this using the web interface, or I should try to fetch all public measurement ids and do the grinding myself? Considering there are more than 560,000 public measurements, getting all the ids doesn't sound like a good idea.

Probe management
by Marco Davids (SIDN) 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

Hi, In the 'general information' tab of our probe I noticed a section 'management sharing', with our regID as a group that apparently has 'shared administration' rights. My question: is it possible to add some of my colleagues to that group, so that they have access to the probe as well? Seems like a better thing to do than handing out my LIR-credentials... Cheers, -- Marco

Some Atlas Anchor Graphs
by Daniel Karrenberg 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

During some research I happened to visualise some random anchor calibration measurements and thought I'd share the graphs. The basis are IPv4 traceroutes from all (4500+) RIPE Atlas probes to the anchor encoded in the file name. The graphs show adjacencies that appear in more than 3% of all paths. IP addresses are aggregated by the network name as registered in the RIR registries. The darker an edge appears, tho more paths contain this adjacency; the colouring is scaled logarithmically. Enjoy Daniel

Thoughts on allowing newer DNS RR queries?
by Mark Delany 21 Feb '14

21 Feb '14

Outside of Atlas I've been doing a few tests to see how well CPE supports newer RR types. By newer I mean newer than AAAA. I'd like to do the same with the Atlas probes. Has there been discussion about being able to issue RR queries of newer types? On the query side, the Atlas device only needs to know enough to encode the type-value which could be supplied as a numeric if necessary. On the response side, a simple hex dump of the response would be good enough. I guess it's sort of a one-off test for most probes because once we know a probe and its intervening caches does or does not support a number of newer types, that situation is unlikely to require re-testing very often. So an alternative might be to make it a bootstrap sequence that the probe goes thru? Out of curiousity, how does the probe do the current DNS queries? Is it via dig or similar or is it coded into a program of some sort? Mark.

Easier access to bandwidth data of RIPE Atlas anchors
by Vesna Manojlovic 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

Dear RIPE Atlas community, we have added a small feature to the listing of RIPE Atlas anchors: https://atlas.ripe.net/anchors/list/ If you click on the hostname of the anchor (e.g. nl-ams-as3333), the link will take you to the graph of bandwidth, served by RIPEstat: https://stat.ripe.net/m/widget/atlas-probe-traffic#w.probe_id=6001&w.measur… This is the same graph that appears on the RIPE Atlas "probe page" of every anchor, but we decided to add a direct link to the bandwidth graph rather then to the whole probe page, since we are working on the improved version of it. The graph is zoomable, so you can see the whole year of data for older anchors; and it has other features described in this RIPE Labs article: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/seismograph-and-other-new-ripe-atlas-fe… Hosts of RIPE Atlas anchors can access the same feature via their admin interface. Other features on this "list" page of RIPE Atlas anchors are: - sortable columns: you can sort by hostname, company name, city or country; in ascending and descending order - "clickable" links to anchoring measurement per anchor, per type We hope that this will give you more insight into the operations of RIPE Atlas anchors to date. We are still accepting applications from new hosts: https://atlas.ripe.net/get-involved/become-an-anchor-host/ Regards, Vesna

does a probe "know" the AS# it is living in?
by Wilfried Woeber 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Folks, a small group of people is starting to develop an idea for a new measurement and I am a memeber of that team. Now I wonder: does a probe know the AS number it is living in, or is this a piece of information that is maintained by the collectors and the various pieces of central programs and the display software? TIA, Wilfried

Logistics Q: probe "owner" leaving an organisation, but probe remains

Hi folks, maybe there's already an FAQ answer somewhere or it has been discussed before, and I missed it. Please point me into the right direction :-) Background: I handed out a probe (from an ambassador batch) and the probe was connected to the 'net. Now, a rather short while later, the "owner" of that probe left the organisation, and left the probe behind. It is still connected :-) What is the procedure or advice for assigning a new "owner" from the hosting organisation? Thanks, Wilfried

Denial of Measurement
by Sebastian Castro 18 Feb '14

18 Feb '14

Hi: Trying to investigate a problem with one of our boxes, I came across the following error message: "10 UDMs are already measuring 202.46.187.130/2001:dce:7000:2:0:0:0:130. Cannot add 1 more" What I did was to add a one-off DNS UDM to ns2.dns.net.nz, to track if reachability was OK, but I can't because someone else is already doing that. None of those UDMs is mine, so effectively someone created a "Denial of Measurement" against me. Any recommendations what to do about this?

Linking to measurements?

Is there any real way to send someone a link to a measurement? I've figured out how to send them links to individual RRD detail pages (https://udm01.atlas.ripe.net/atlas/udm_graph_history.html), but not a link to the overall public measurement. The UI is all AJAXy, so I haven't seen any obvious places to pull a link out of.

probe status "abandoned" - "garbage collect" attempt?
by Wilfried Woeber 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Dear community, as a side-effect of looking at maps and country-related info, I recognised that there's a considerable number of probes in our country which are marked as "abandoned". We may be able to follow up on some of them. Looking at https://stat.ripe.net/widget/atlas-probes#w.resource=AT and switching to table view, I'm missing the AS# column. Being able to search for "our" ASes would be nice. Thanks, Wilfried PS: a text / table version that can be saved locally and then subjected to a 'grep' would be nice, too. PPS: the sort function by address family is really nice!

"funny" comment in pop-up display for a measurement? (v4/v6 addr mismatch)
by Wilfried Woeber 16 Jan '14

Some more digging and some more confusion? Logged in, looking at "My measurements", selecting 1033944, a traceroutev6.

But the *-comment at the bottom puzzles me, by saying: * The last address does not match the target IP (192.153.174.196) This is sort of obvious, as the address referred to is 2001:6f8:114e:4::1 What's the background for this behaviour?

UDM display, session expiration

Just an observation... I started a TR6 connectivity measurement against our Anchor, late in the evening yesterday and had the measurement panel open.

13 Jan '14

Dear RIPE Atlas users, We're happy to announce that another RIPE Atlas anchor has joined the network and is now available as a target for probe hosts conducting their own user-defined measurements. The new anchor is called jp-tyo-as2500 and it is hosted by University of Tokyo/WIDE BB in Tokyo (Japan) on behalf of RIPE NCC since they are one of our RIS-RRC locations. Anchoring measurements (ping, ping6, traceroute and traceroute6) are scheduled towards this anchor from all the other anchors as well as several hundred probes, providing a continual overview of regional reachability. Results of these measurements are available as raw data in JSON format, and visualised on the map and "seismograph" with many configurable features. You can access the anchoring measurements for all anchors at: https://atlas.ripe.net/anchors/list/ Learn more about RIPE Atlas anchors at: https://atlas.ripe.net/about/anchors/ Thank you for participating in RIPE Atlas! Kind regards, Measurements Community Building Team RIPE NCC mcb(a)ripe.net

Proposing more public RIPE Atlas data and clarifying the current situation
by Vesna Manojlovic 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Dear colleagues, Sharing information about Internet performance is at the heart of collaborative efforts such as RIPE Atlas. Most of the RIPE Atlas probes and RIPE Atlas measurements are already public, and we'd now like to suggest opening up the publication of RIPE Atlas data further. We also want to clarify exactly what is and isn't public in the current system. We describe this in more detail in this RIPE Labs article, where we also ask for community feedback about our suggested plan to move forward: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/proposing-making-ripe-atlas-data-more-p… Our proposed plan is to make all *new* measurements and technical information about the *new* probes public from an agreed upon date in the future. We propose implementing this change in mid-April. All probes and measurements that were not marked "public" by April 2014 would remain non-"public". For a detailed description of what this means, please see the RIPE Labs article (above). Although we believe that having public measurement data contributes to the goal of RIPE Atlas, the RIPE NCC greatly values our users' privacy. We want to ensure you that we will continue to protect our probe hosts' personal information. We look forward to your feedback and comments on the MAT Working Group Mailing List. Regards, Vesna Manojlovic Senior Community Builder Measurements Community Building RIPE NCC

call for help or ptr to doc - saving graphs?
by Wilfried Woeber 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Apologies, if this has been discussed before or should be obvious from some documentation... So here we go: In the "good old days" (no I prefer the current state :-) ) it was asy to get hold of the extended graphs by simply clicking onto the graph in the summary page and then do "save" or "save as". Since the (better, interactive,...) graphs are generated locally, I failed to come up with a method to "get hold" of the graph, for storing locally, printing, whatever. I just today tried to hit "print" in the browser, but the page seems to be inadequately structured/formatted for printing. The result is gaebage all over. Does anyone have a pointer or suggestion for me, sort of "better" than doing a screen shot and then work with the pixels? TIA, Wilfried

graph generation stopped on 9.1.2014
by Wilfried Woeber 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

It looks like the generation of graphs to be displayed on the summary page for my probes stopped at some point in time, today, Jan. 9. Before around noon it was working, now they are gone. Probes affected: 414, 466, 6009 Any hints? Wilfried

Atlas F.ROOT ping
by Peter Gervai 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Hello, Atlas helped me today first to see a hard-to-detect bug: F-root anycast algo works fine for v4 but fails miserably for v6, as instead of AMSterdam it sends all traffic to some remote island in the pacific. ;-) Seems to be the reverse true for M-root: ipv4 sends me off to nowhere land while v6 is great. A-root follows the F-suit. (C-root is not a good avertisement valie for Cogent, with v4 only address and considerable ongoing pkt loss.) Thanks! Peter

Updated RIPE Atlas roadmap
by Vesna Manojlovic 30 Dec '13

30 Dec '13

Dear colleagues, we have considered the feedback we have received from you in the previous few months, on this list and MAT-wg mailing list, and last week we have made an updated version of the roadmap: http://roadmap.ripe.net/ripe-atlas/ We have added few new items under "requested features", and shifted some of the previously requested and planned towards "in progress". We are updating this document every two months, so you can expect newer requests to be added early next year. Regards, Vesna

probe information - useful feature?
by Gilles Massen 24 Dec '13

24 Dec '13

Hi, With a few measurements I was stumbling about probes returning 'unexpected' results (e.g. having DNS responses rewritten). I was wondering if it made sense to provide a way to add information to probes that are somehow 'noteworthy'. Just adding free comments to probes could be enough. The reason is not to lose time each time someone stumbles over the results and has to investigate the specifics over and over again. The probe selection does not have to be affected - after all the weirdness is part of the internet. It shouldn't either result in some kind of blaming, only information sharing. Additionally a probe host could be notified if some text is added to his probe (he might not be aware after all). Thoughts? Best, Gilles

Hello Lukasz, thank you for reporting the problem with the six /8s originated by our AS. For future notice, please note that our company has a response time of 15 minutes to e-mails sent to noc(a)adnettelecom.ro aut-num: AS5541 [...] remarks: E-mail NOC: noc(a)adnettelecom.ro We have been notified by one of our customers that you have sent several e-mails to the ripe-atlas mailing list related to our company. We have investigated the problem reported and noticed that last night, while enabling our BGP session with AS6939 an error in the config caused the announcement of six /8s. The problem is now fixed and the colleague with the fat fingers will have to eat within the next hour 0.000001 Christmas candies for each IP in the rogue announcements. We wish you a Merry Christmas! and ask you to send us an e-mail to noc(a)adnettelecom.ro if you see any problem originated from our AS in the future.
