Thank you for your answer.

I saw anchors are able to perform more measurements than probes, and collect larger amount of data. In my situation, bandwidth is scarse and expensive. With the amount I'm currently paying for 10M, I could get 1G of transit in a data center in Paris :-)

Then, I can't afford spending too much bandwidth just for the community. That's the reason why I was interested in software probes, for simple measurements, not using more bandwidth than hardware probes.

Kind regards,

I had written up instructions for the VM based anchor method of installing with KVM/QEMU. You need to apply for an anchor and be approved and then set it up for them. It's not that hard.

Likely has the best info.

Hi,

I just saw a survey last June about software probes. I would be greatly interested by them. Can we have some news about this project ?

I know I can deploy software anchors. But I'm on a tiny island. I have very few bandwidth, and it's very expensive; then I can't afford spending too much of it :-)

Kind regards,
