Dear RIPE Atlas users,

We're happy to announce that another RIPE Atlas anchor has joined the network and is now available as a target for probe hosts conducting their own user-defined measurements. 

The new anchor is called au-mel-as38796 and it is hosted by AusRegistry in Melbourne, Australia. 
Congratulations to AusRegistry! This is the first anchor in Oceania and the second in the Asia and Pacific area. 

Anchoring measurements (ping, ping6, traceroute and traceroute6) are scheduled towards this anchor from all the other anchors as well as several hundred probes, providing a continual overview of regional reachability. Results of these measurements are available as raw data in JSON format, and visualised on the map and "seismograph" with many configurable features.

You can access the anchoring measurements for all anchors at:
