Hi Robert,

here are some things that bothered me, when looking at the probe pages:

1. Network Tab:
When a probe is connected via IPv4 and IPv6, the second IPv4 DNS resolver is not displayed on the probe page. If the Probe is connected via IPv4 only, both IPv4 resolvers are displayed. At least, that is what I have observed for my probes.

2. Network Tab:
Connection Information: Instead of "Last Week" and "Last Month" it should be "Last 7 Days" and "Last 30 days". For example: in my understanding "last month" means time between 1. - 30. November since the current month is december. But the probe page counts the online-time of last 30 days. Maybe this is a regional thing... are there countries which differentiate between month and calendermonth? I would appreciate, if it would be X days instead of week and month, to avoid confusion.

3. General Tab:
"Router Type" cannot be set for Anchors (at least for my two anchors).

4. Network Tab:
Please take a look at these probes:
https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/26320/#tab-network
https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/1004823/#tab-network
What is causing the probe page to display so much old IPv6 addresses? It doesn't matter of the probe is connected or not, this error can happen in both cases. I've opened a ticket for this two weeks ago (#536036), but got no response.

5. General Tab:
Maybe provide a textfield where probe/anchor hosts can write some details. A description, public contact details or whatever.


Thanks,
Simon

Hi Chris,

sorry for "stealing" this conversation, but it's interesting to hear that there will be a redesign of the probe page coming up soon. Can we have a discussion about that? There are several things, that bother me a bit...

BR,

Hi,

The team started thinking about how to improve these pages. We're using already collected user input, our own observations and including technical changes that are looming anyway.

We're early in this work but are happy to take your input already :-) It can be a thread you start here (e.g. what do you like now? what do you dislike? what is missing? ... about probe pages) or in a "private interview" of some kind.

Cheers,
Robert
