Hi Anurag, you can do what you want with RIPE Atlas Tools in two steps. First get a list of probes that are around a city like: |ripe-atlas probes --location Amsterdam --ids-only --radius 20 | If you do: |ripe-atlas probes -h | you can see some explanation of the options. And then get the above list and pass it as a comma separated list to the measure command like: |ripe-atlas measure traceroute --from-probes 1,2,3,4 your_target | --paris is the paris traceroute option. It should be an integer from 0 to 64 as stated in the RIPE Atlas website documentation. <https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/measurement-creation-api/> I hope that helps!

Hello everyone,
I was looking at possible command line tool to trigger traces from Atlas from given city or that area.
The closest I can see is RIPE Atlas Tools - https://github.com/RIPE-NCC/ripe-atlas-tools but these let to only put source country or region.
1. Is anyone aware of how one can trigger traces via CLI from specific cities? /(I would love to do trace from a nearby city if specific city does not have Atlas coverage)/ 2. In the Ripe Atlas Tools I see in documentation it refers to an argument "[--paris paris]". Is anyone aware of what does it mean? It seems to be asking for an integer value.
Thanks in advance!
