On a sidenote; I have a couple of RIPE Atlas probes running on a NanoPI Neo. I use DietPI as OS, Docker and the Atlas probe container. Works great, consumes not more than 1 Watt.

Much smaller than such a small box would be difficult since you need an SOC, RAM, storage, and an Ethernet jack or 802.11n wifi.

Hi,

I would like to port RIPE Atlas probes to ESP32 as part of my Master's project at TU Graz. Usage of microcontrollers could be an interesting approach to increase the physical availability of probes and to decrease the cost and energy usage.

Would it be possible to get some support in this endeavour from the Atlas dev team? I would need some help with the communication with Atlas servers.

Best,
Urban Suhadolnik
