New on RIPE Labs: RIPE Atlas Big Data is Back
by Alun Davies 23 Feb '21

23 Feb '21

Dear colleagues, At the beginning of the year, RIPE Atlas users started encountering delays in data retrieval and an overall drop in the responsiveness of the system. With service having gone back to normal earlier this month, we take a look at what caused the problem and what we're doing prevent it from happening again: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/paul_de_weerd/ripe-atlas-big-data-is-back Kind regards, Alun Davies RIPE Labs Editor RIPE NCC

Re: [atlas] [mat-wg] RIPE Atlas testing of reserved IPv4 addresses
by Robert Kisteleki 18 Feb '21

18 Feb '21

Dear All, A little bit of poking since there were no reactions to this question on the MAT mailing list. Before embarking on evaluating what it takes for RIPE Atlas to contribute to this, I'd like to ask for some input from the community; is this something we should spend energy on? More specifically, would it be worthwhile for us to spend time on evaluating the cost of / implementing such measurements in RIPE Atlas?

RIPE Atlas Measurements packets sent number not always 16
by Debora Marettek 17 Feb '21

17 Feb '21

Dear RIPE NCC, for my ping measurements, I incremented the number of sent packets to 16. Now I noticed that in the measurement with the ID 28779821, the probes didn't always send 16 packets, sometimes, albeit rarely, only 7 or 3. Below you see an extract of the packets_sent data of Probe 52673. Now I wanted to ask what could possibly be the reason for that phenomena. Kind regards, Debora Probe: 52673 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 5, 1, 9, 16, 16, 16, 14, 16, 16, 16, 16, 8, 13, 6, 7, 6, 6, 16, 16, 12, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 10, 11, 10, 7, 6, 16, 4, 16, 16, 16, 16, 4, 7, 15, 6, 9, 12, 11, 7, 8, 11, 6, 5, 13, 13, 13, 5, 10, 16, 16, 7, 7, 9, 7, 7, 7, 9, 16, 16, 11, 4, 7, 16, 7, 2, 8, 16, 4, 6, 8, 16, 7, 8, 6, 5, 8, 8, 9, 8, 7, 4, 3, 10, 1, 2, 11, 6, 16, 8, 12, 6, 11, 10, 11, 8, 12, 12, 12, 11, 8, 16, 6, 5, 5, 9, 10, 6, 10, 7, 9, 10, 9, 11, 8, 8, 11, 7, 12, 7, 11, 9, 13, 2, 10, 12, 10, 7, 9, 16, 13, 5, 4, 7, 8, 6, 5, 7, 6, 7, 9, 9, 9, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 4, 9, 4, 6, 8, 6, 11, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16, <https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/28931367/>

atlas probe down : ID 35603
by MAYER Hans 08 Feb '21

08 Feb '21

Dear All, Our Atlas probe with ID 35603 is down since about 6 days. It’s a V3 probe. Model: TL-MR3020(UN) Ver: 1.9 ; S/N: 2176197008302. When I realised it this atlas probe was not ping-able. ( due to a power outage ) I followed the instructions https://labs.ripe.net/Members/philip_homburg/troubleshooting-ripe-atlas-pro… with solution 1. Unfortunately it didn’t work. During the time without USB stick the probe was on the network reachable, getting the IP from DHCP. But later on, it wasn’t ping-able. So I tried solution 2. I took a different USB stick as described. After a while the probe is now ping-able. ( 2001:628:21f0:911:c225:e9ff:fea8:6530 , 147.125.100.34 , DNS name: ripencc.iiasa.ac.at<http://ripencc.iiasa.ac.at> ) But when I go to https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/35603/ I see it is offline. The web page says „no flash drive“ and „trying to connect“. What else can I do ? It seems, that the TP-Link device itself isn’t broken. Shall I try with a different USB stick. (a third one) I took a 64MB USB stick. Was this maybe too big ? I saw the original stick had only 1 MB. The documentation says it should have at least 4GB. Any ideas ? Any feedback is welcome.

Automating software probe creation?
by Steve Gibbard 04 Jan '21

04 Jan '21

I’m working on creating some Raspberry Pi-based software probes, to put in some networks that currently lack Atlas probes. I’d like to have a standard image that can come up and work wherever an individual probe lands, instead of needing to configure each one separately. As far as I can tell from the documentation, it looks like the probes are identified by the encryption keys in /var/atlas-probe/etc/probe-key* . If creating new probes from an image, is it sufficient to make each probe generate its own encryption keys, or are there other files that need to change? For registering the probes, I see a web form that requires being logged into a RIPE account, and don’t see any equivalent in the API documentation. Is there a way to register new software probes via the API? Thanks, Steve

Probes suffering DNS interception?
by Ray Bellis 15 Dec '20

15 Dec '20

Is there any RIPE policy about whether nodes that are subject to DNS interception should be excluded from results (or maybe even dropped altogether) ? While these probes are perhaps still useful for ping and traceroute tests, they are effectively useless for DNS related tests other than as a proxy measure for how prevalent that practise actually is. For the visualisation I've just been building based on the Root System's "hostname.bind" data returned by Atlas it was pretty difficult to figure out how to exclude those probes on the client side. If there was a heuristic that could be applied on the probe itself or within the RIPE data collector that tagged the probe as having "bad DNS" that would help a lot. cheers, Ray Bellis Director of DNS Operations, ISC.

Re: [atlas] Probe operator notifications
by ripe＠brite.cz 14 Dec '20

14 Dec '20

For this purpose I use an online ping check service. Your probe need to have IPv6 or public IPv4 and ICMP be not blocked by a firewall to be able to respond pings from outside. To be exact, I use http://wedos.online that is run by one of the largest server-hosting company in the Czech Republic. It is free of charge. You can choose how often (1 minute or more) it will ping the probe and how many pings can be lost, then it sends both DOWN and UP notifications (email, Slack, Rocket chat) Cheers Jiri ______________________________________________________________ > Od: "Ponikierski, Grzegorz" <gponikie(a)akamai.com> > Komu: "Edward Lewis" <edlewisjr(a)cox.net>, "ripe-atlas(a)ripe.net" <ripe-atlas(a)ripe.net> > Datum: 11.12.2020 12:16 > Předmět: Re: [atlas] Probe operator notifications > >+1 for 'your probe came back on-line' > >Regards, >Grzegorz > >From: Edward Lewis <edlewisjr(a)cox.net> >Date: Thursday 2020-12-10 at 22:32 >To: "ripe-atlas(a)ripe.net" <ripe-atlas(a)ripe.net> >Cc: Ed Lewis <edlewisjr(a)cox.net> >Subject: [atlas] Probe operator notifications > >(Seeing the thread about DNS intercepted probes reminded me to send this:) > >For 5 or so years running I have a probe operating in my garage (behind my home’s NAT and using the ISP’s NXDOMAIN rewriting, non-DNSSEC handling recursive server) a run-of-the-mill home cable set up. > >When I got my November report, it said I’d been down the last half of November.

Good afternoon, My name is Konstantin Averkin, and I am a Bachelor student of University of Twente. Currently, I am working on my thesis on resilience of DNS servers. In order to successfully perform the research, I need to do ping and trace route measurements against a series of DNS servers located all around the world. With this email I am writing to ask you to provide 20 million credits to perform measurements with the RIPE Atlas platform. Would that be possible? My account is linked to the same name and address as in this email. Thank you in advance. Kind regards, Konstantin Averkin

List of (scientific) publications using RIPE Atlas
by Moritz Muller 26 Nov '20

26 Nov '20

Hi everyone, A follow up to last week’s Atlas Open House: One of the speakers mentioned that the Wikipedia page of RIPE Atlas [1] lists a number of publications that made use of RIPE Atlas. This list is incomplete and I was wondering if there’s a page somewhere, maybe provided by RIPE NCC, where researchers can submit and list work that used Atlas in some way. This could give beginning researchers and students some inspiration. Maybe this page could also provide links to the measurements themselves for transparency. - Moritz [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIPE_Atlas

Planned changes to "measurement archive"
by Robert Kisteleki 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Dear RIPE Atlas users, You may be aware that we publish "measurement metadata dumps" on "FTP" (https://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/atlas/measurements/) every week. These are meant to make the complete measurement metadata downloadable for those who are interested. Even though there is still a point in publishing our metadata in a downloadable format, the current method is not sustainable: as it is defined it'll grow forever - which is not realistic. Currently *every* dump contains *all* the measurements we *ever* had in the system. We plan to change that to "everything that's running now + everything that was running in the last two weeks". This has about 200k items currently. If we published this every day instead of once a week, we will still only produce 10% of the output we do today - by virtue of eliminating 90% of redundancy and repeated work. The syntax and semantics of the content will not change. We will keep the existing dumps as they are mostly because there's no reason to remove them. What this means for users is: * if you care about "current / recent" measurements, you can just use the last dump from yesterday * if you really need all (or a large part of) history, you can fetch one dump per 2 weeks or so and combine them * you can still use the API for random, finite searches We plan to implement the above change just after RIPE 81 (i.e. early November). Please be aware of this change if you rely on these dumps. Regards, Robert

Result processing glitch
by Robert Kisteleki 12 Oct '20

12 Oct '20

Dear RIPE Atlas users, Today one of our controllers (a component that handles probes and deals with their submitted results) was updated to run a new version of result processing code. Unfortunately this code had a bug that caused results to be mixed up. As a result, some of the results that were delivered by this controller were of the wrong type / syntax, which may result in errors in processing this data. We reverted this change as soon as we detected the error. This issue likely affected results delivered by about 2% of our probes, between 13:30 and 15:15 (CEST). We apologise for the inconvenience. Regards, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC

Invalid results in TraceMON tool
by Andreas Siskos 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Hello everyone, I am an undergraduate student at University of Crete and as a part of my bachelor thesis, I am trying to integrate TraceMON in a website. I used the example code that it was provided by the web page of TraceMON in RIPE Atlas website ( https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/tools-tracemon/#embed), but I noticed something unexpected. The graph of the TraceMON was not taking the same path as the raw data of traceroutes. There were the right destinations/IPs, but in shuffled order. Let's consider the example of measurement ID 26813196. As you can see, in the raw data of the traceroute ( https://atlas.ripe.net/api/v2/measurements/26813196/results/), it reaches the target IP (103.83.160.1) at 16th hop from probe 55564. When I checked the graph in TraceMON on the RIPE Atlas website ( https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/26813196/#!tracemon) (see attached: general.png), the traceroute from probe 55564 was represented in the picture graph.png. As you can see in the data file data.png, the destination IP was reached at 3rd hop instead of 16th, that was in the raw data of the traceroute. The same behavior can be observed for the probes 19648 and 32788. Am I missing something? Thank you in advance, Andreas Siskos

How can I reduce data usage on remote satellite-connected islands?
by chris＠gare.co.uk 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Hello all, I've just become an ambassador for the RIPE Atlas programme. I have a question. I wish to deploy a number of probes to remote low-capacity satellite connected islands. These islands have strict and VERY expensive monthly usage quotas. Looking at some probes already installed, I see that the minimum bandwidth (is that the term used?) is approximately 3.3kbit/s This equates to around 1GB of data per month which represent a significant percentage of a consumer's monthly quota. I'll have a hard job convincing volunteers to act as hosts if they consume that much. Is there a way I can set 'bandwidth' to less than 10kbs or is there a workaround I can use to reduce this under my control? It has been suggested that I could out a timer on the host but that is nonworkable! Any help would be appreciated as I know that reachability is quite unreliable at times and the data I could provide would be most interesting. Chris

Extreme slowness today?

23 minutes before Atlas tells me there is no suitable probes with my criteria (country=SD, which does not surprise me). Same slowness for all measurements.

Disabling TLS 1.0 and 1.1 on RIPE Atlas anchors
by Robert Kisteleki 01 Sep '20

01 Sep '20

Dear RIPE Atlas users, We received reports that the availability of TLS 1.0 and 1.1 on RIPE Atlas anchors triggers some security alarms for some anchor hosts. Since the anchors don't host anything sensitive, and the measurment code is not expected to be affected by this, we will stop supporting these protocols on the anchors (*) as of *1 September*. We'll carry on with supporting TLS 1.2 (*) the RIPE Atlas website/UI will be unchanged for the time being although we expect similar changes in the near future Regards, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC
