FWIW, my probe is sitting on its own "RIPE-ATLAS" VLAN . . .
I have a lot of respect for the RIPE team - but dropping a device from a 3rd party, that you *know for a fact* it will get requests for tests from who-knows-where . . . A bit of a bad idea.
Trust, but verify applies here - segment the probe into its own segment. Maybe an IPv6-only one . . .
AFAIK the probe currently does not support being on an IPv6-only network. Besides, why voluntarily make it half as useful to the world as it can be. You got the probe, got IPv4, might as well let the probe measure on IPv4... -- With respect, Roman
