HTTP measurement proposals [CDN-HTTP] [GENERIC-HTTP] [PEERING-HTTP]
by Ethan Katz-Bassett 06 Mar '23

06 Mar '23

Hi Robert, all: I was considering emailing about the possibility of HTTP measurements to our PEERING <https://peering.ee.columbia.edu/> testbed when I stumbled on the five proposals that Robert posted in December. I want to express my strong support for the two HTTP proposals. Hourly [CDN-HTTP] would be great (eventually with HTTPS support). ([STARTTLS] also sounds good, but I haven't thought deeply about it, and [ONLY-PUBLIC] sounds good unless it costs RIPE Atlas support / probe hosts) I was wondering about the feasibility of allowing HTTP measurements towards PEERING experiments (meaning, towards our address space announced from an experiment via our routers). Is that something that you might be open to supporting? This came to mind because we are in the process of onboarding PEERING to some bring-your-own-prefix services offered by CDNs and cloud providers, and so an increasing number of PEERING experiments are about content delivery/cloud hosting, and it would be great if RIPE Atlas could act as measurement clients to provide widespread vantage points. One hands-off option that comes to mind is to set them up similar to the proposal for CDN-HTTP, where probes will regularly fetch an object at a fixed URL, say http://ripeatlas.ee.columbia.edu/testobject. Normally, that could resolve to our project webserver, which is hosted in AWS. When an experiment needs this HTTP capability (all experiments undergo review by at least 2 people for safety, and we enable only the capabilities they request and need, following the principle of least privilege), we could instead redirect it to a PEERING address allocated to the project that would host the same test object but that would be announced from cloud/CDN/PEERING sites however the experiment had configured. Alternatively, it could be a measurement available to approved accounts, and we could pass on which experiments are approved, or perhaps available to all accounts. We have fixed address space, if you have a way to whitelist. We maintain our list of prefixes as RS-PEERING-TESTBED on RIPE's IRR. I believe Johan recently contacted Kevin Vermeulen about talking to us about RIPE Atlas in the context of another one of our projects, so possibly we can have a discussion covering both topics. Thanks for all your work providing the platform -- it's great! Ethan -- http://www.columbia.edu/~ebk2141/

Errors on Measurement web interface
by ripe＠brite.cz 01 Mar '23

01 Mar '23

Hi team, I see issues with Latencymon, such as https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/48750273/#latencymon Upon opening it displays message "Server is responding slowly", after a while it displays the default view. But when I expand the time range a bit, or make any change to the view, it will show nothing and after a while displays message "It is not possible to download data from the API" Tried Firefox and Chrome, same result. The same result when I open only the frame, such as https://atlas.ripe.net/frames/measurements/48750273#latencymon

Re: [atlas] Measurement question
by Michel Stam 20 Feb '23

Hello Roberto, I’ve done the exact same measurement too, using the 3 types of traceroute available (ICMP, UDP and TCP). UDP: (https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/49826077/#general) TCP: (https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/49826078/#general) ICMP: (https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/49826076/#general) The way the traceroute works in Atlas is that if 5 hops have been received without response, the trace skips over to TTL 255 and ends the traceroute. This is what you see with TCP and ICMP. The traceroute stops for lack of response. To prove that, I’ve run the trace again, skipping hops 1-7, for both ICMP and TCP: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/49826868/#general https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/49826959/#general Now for the interesting bits: 100.64.0.0/10 is CGN (Carrier Grade NAT), RFC 6598. Looking at the traceroute differently: Hop 1 (AS16509, Amazon EU West, Amazon-02) Hop 2-7 CGN Hop 8-9 (AS unknown, but between UK and US, IPROU3-ARIN, so Amazon IP routing 3) Hop 10 (AS unknown, but between UK and US, IPROU3-ARIN/ARMP-ARIN, Amazon IP routing) Hop 11-15 CGN Hop 16 (AS unknown, presumably US, IPROU3-ARIN/ARMP-ARIN, I presume Amazon IP routing still) Hop 17-19 CGN Hop 20 (AS13335, Cloudflare US) So it seems like every cloud zone interconnect (amazon Europe west, US, then Cloudflare) transitted goes through a CGN setup. Not sure but I can understand if this confuses some types of traffic. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with your setup, but the results are interesting. I’ve copied a couple of our researchers onto the mail as they may be interested in this as well.

Hi, I noticed that there is no ping and traceroute dumps for 2023-01-23: https://data-store.ripe.net/datasets/atlas-daily-dumps/2023-01-23/ The other days are fine though. Is there any chance to get these dumps? Or are they just lost? Thanks! Maxime

Measurement question
by roberto.lucignani＠caleidos.it 08 Feb '23

08 Feb '23

I’m doing some measurement from one of my software probes, the measure is a traceroute to a destination. The results I get are completely different from what I see doing the same traceroute directly on host where the probe is installed. I configured the measure to sue the DNS resolution on the probe.. >From the Atlas portal I get a traceroute with 7 hops, doing it directly on the host returns 28 hops, for the same destination.
