Probe no longer on an IPv6 network?
by Rusty Dekema 05 Aug '13

05 Aug '13

Good evening, When I first installed it, probe 10555 was on a network which supports IPv6. Since then, I have moved it to a different network which does not have IPv6 access at all. Is there something I should do to let the RIPE Atlas system know that it no longer has IPv6 access? It seems like there should be, but I haven't found it. I would not like for it to be one of those probes which "thinks" it has IPv6 but actually does not... Thanks, Rusty D

adding a device
by folkert 05 Aug '13

05 Aug '13

Hi, Yesterday I received a probe-device at a conference. I entered the details in the website (which was a lot of fun: finding out the ipv4 prefix(?!) - I ended up trying a couple of entries found in the whois info of my ipv4 address, also in what format should I enter the mac-address?) but the device does not appear in the "My probes" list. Even after a couple of hours. I verified that it got an ip4-address from the dhcp server and also radvd is happily announcing the ipv6-prefix in that segment. Furthermore: I see that the probe is doing all kinds of network traffic to the internet. So the device at itself seems to work. What can be wrong?

Registering a new probe...
by Chris Elliott 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

I have one probe (3690), and just received two new probes from Nathalie Trenaman, thanks to Bert Wijnen. However, either I'm just flat out missing something or the registration page is broken. I go here: https://atlas.ripe.net/register/ I ensure I'm logged in, and try to complete the registration process. No matter what, it always says: - There were some problems with your submission. Please see below However, nothing is highlighted or otherwise called out as an issue. I've tried various combinations in various fields, with no success. Here's one of the settings I've tried: - On what sort of network will you be installing the probe? * Residential/Consumer Business Network Educational Network IXP RIPE NCC Member (LIR) - Organisation Name * - What's the connection speed like on that network? * < 1 Mb/s 1-4 Mb/s 5-9 Mb/s 10-19 Mb/s 20-49 Mb/s 50-99 Mb/s 100-499 Mb/s 500-999 Mb/s > 1 Gb/s I don't know - AS Number - My network supports IPv4 - IPv4 Network Prefix - Please enter a valid prefix. - My network supports IPv6 - IPv6 Network Prefix - How did you receive your probe? * From conference/training From sponsor Other - Who is the sponsor? * - MAC Address - Location * <http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=21.351893,-102.718887&z=2&t=m&hl=en-US&mapcl…> Map data ©2013 MapLink - Terms of Use<http://www.google.com/intl/en-US_US/help/terms_maps.html> Map Satellite - I'm willing to keep the probe online 24/7 - I'm willing to make my probe visible to the public - I accept the rules of the game a.k.a.

HTTP or not HTTP?
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

I'm surprised to see in UDM documentation that you can do HTTP measurements: https://atlas.ripe.net/doc/udm#http-http6 But I do not find this option in the "Choose a measurement" menu of the Web interface. And it is not documented in the REST API: https://atlas.ripe.net/doc/measurement-creation-api/ > type: One of ping,traceroute,dns or sslcert So, can we do HTTP measurements with the Atlas probes?

Outdated documentation to delete
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 30 Jul '13

IMHO, the "mechanize" example in <https://atlas.ripe.net/doc/code#access_from_scripts> is useless now that we have an API and should be deleted.

Spoofing the source IP address from a probe?
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 30 Jul '13

30 Jul '13

I read in the interesting <http://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2013/06/can-we-stop-ip-spoofing-internet> about BCP38 (anti-spoofing): > Another possibility that was suggested is using RIPE Atlas probes to > probe network capabilities (or shall we say incapabilities?). AFAIK, Atlas probes cannot currently perform these tests, am I correct?

Hi, Probably we don't need to spoof all address space, instead only if spoofing enabled just spoof to some predefined address range.

Re: [atlas] Outdated for more than one day?

Hello, The probe ID is 10156. It is attached to a third interface on my router. The graphs have been stalled for the last four days. The probe went online on June 26 and all was well until this happened on July 24. Thanks for looking.

Outdated for more than one day?
by Fred Grayson 27 Jul '13

27 Jul '13

Hello, Recently, all Built-in-Measurments for my probe began showing "Outdated for more than one day" and none of the graphs are current, most show some white space at the far right hand side. My Total Uptime: 99.56% (31d, 22h, 30m) and I have power cycled the device twice trying to solve the problem. Any ideas on how to fix this will be appreciated. Thanks, FG

Ping Fails (ns.ripe.net)
by AlbyVA 23 Jul '13

23 Jul '13

In reviewing My Probe stats, it appears that (ns.ripe.net) was once able to ping the server, but now it appears to be failing. All my other ping stats under My Probe show successful pings to other servers, but for some reason ns.ripe.net is failing. Does anybody have a suggestion of what might be going on, since ping is working to all the other servers. -Alby
