A registered user, in the context of RIPE Atlas is a user who has registered a RIPE account via https://access.ripe.net/ AND has visited the Atlas site at lease once while they're logged in.
Aha! This definition is difficult to guess. It would be nice to have ^ description on the network coverage webpage.
However, the geographical distribution plot uses the term, “connected probes”, but the stacked plot below uses the term “active probes”. What is the difference between connected and active probes?
Yeah that was just poor choice of names at the time that that page was created. I've since brought them in line so now they both say "connected probes". If you do a refresh on the coverage page you'll see :-)
Thanks for a quick action on this. Best, Vaibhav ----------------------------------------------------- Vaibhav Bajpai Research I, Room 86 Computer Networks and Distributed Systems (CNDS) Lab School of Engineering and Sciences Jacobs University Bremen, Germany www.vaibhavbajpai.com
