Atlas UI update 2025-11-24
by Stephen Suess 24 Nov '25

24 Nov '25

Hello Atlas community, We have just released an update to the Atlas frontend, with new features, changes and fixes. Here are some of them: NEW: Member resources dashboard card and use case - We have a new feature for members, both as a dashboard card and a use case (https://atlas.ripe.net/use-cases/member-resources) Members will be able to see Atlas probes and anchors within their LIRs' prefixes, see measurements that are targeting those prefixes, and link to these objects. NEW: Probe detail results: traceroute comparison component - We have been working on a component for comparing traceroutes over time, and the first place we are rolling it out for testing is on the results tab of the probe detail page (for example: https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/1/results) When you click on a point and show traceroutes, this component will pull 12 hours of traceroutes on either side of that point and show a timeline of significant changes for comparison. NEW: Probe detail results: download data (csv/json) - On the same probe results tab, you now have a menu in the graph allowing you to download the data in csv or json format. NEW: Probe detail overview: show recently stopped measurements - You will now see a button in the probe detail overview not only for measurements currently running on the probe, but also for recently stopped measurements. In addition to the new items above, there are numerous changes and fixes present. For the full list, please see the release notes here: https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/releases/website_index/2025-11-24 We would love to know what you think. Please let us know if you have any questions, comments, or encounter any issues with this update or elsewhere in Atlas. Kind regards, Stephen Atlas UI

Re: v3 probe stuck with BADMD-APP
by Marek Zarychta 18 Nov '25

18 Nov '25

Hello, I have had recently the same problem like Radu described. The probe wasn't connecting with this message since 2025-11-07 09:45:52, so I have taken this probe to different ASN, but it didn't help. Today, after configuring the DNS servers in the original ASN to respond to queries coming from the probe’s temporary network, the probe was finally able to reconnect. It looks like the issue with DNS setting was a problem here. The probe was initially set to use static IP and IPv6 addresses. After changing a few weeks ago to dynamic ones it's still stuck with old DNS server settings. It's really hard to fix the USB issue with the probe using static addresses. The only working way was taking it to the network with working DHCP and/or IPv6 auto-configuration including RDNSS, plugging it without USB, waiting several minutes, plugging USB stick, waiting till it reboots, disconnecting from the network, and connecting back to the network for which static addresses were configured. Of course, if there were DHCP or RDNSS working in the original network, the troubleshooting would be far easier. Anyway, I have two requests for the RIPE Atlas operations team: - please ensure that DNS settings automatically switch to dynamic when changing a probe’s addressing mode from static to dynamic, - please allow users to change a probe’s addressing mode from static to dynamic even when the probe is currently offline. Cheers -- Marek Zarychta

v3 probe stuck with BADMD-APP
by Radu Anghel 11 Nov '25

11 Nov '25

hi, one of the v3 probes i spread around the universe that is 12+ years old just had another USB stick die after a power failure. i have tried reviving it by replacing the stick (tried at least 3 different ones), but for some reason it does not work as when i previously replaced it. i also tried different partitioning on the 16/32gb sticks: one single partition fat32/ntfs/ext4, no partitions at all. the probe does not format the new stick or do anything with it except reporting it to the controller, i see "registrations" in the event log with info about the USB that is plugged in. after that it just keeps repeating the BADMD-APP SOS DNS query. no blinky light on the stick to show activity. tried leaving it for more than 8h with the new stick, tried plugging in the stick 10+ minutes after probe booted, tried booting with the fresh stick plugged in. no changes in behaviour. also replaced the power source/cable, that did not help either. is there anything else i can try to revive it? thanks!

A system tag for DNS resolution of "other types"?
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 11 Nov '25

11 Nov '25

I see a probe (31874) which can resolve A and AAAA (and has system tags for that) but always SERVFAIL for TXT records. % blaeu-resolve --probes 31874 --type TXT ietf.org [ERROR: SERVFAIL] : 1 occurrences Test #136741617 done at 2025-11-08T16:31:22Z % blaeu-resolve --probes 31874 --type A ietf.org [104.16.44.99 104.16.45.99] : 1 occurrences Test #136741646 done at 2025-11-08T16:31:36Z (You can check with other domains such as ripe.net.) Suggestion: a system tag "Resolves TXT".

IXP Country jedi seems to be down
by Vasileios Giotsas 07 Nov '25

07 Nov '25

Hi all, It seems that the data endpoints for the IXP Country jedi website are down. The website itself (https://jedi.ripe.net<https://jedi.ripe.net/latest/AT/geopath/index.html>) is loading, but none of the graphs are loading, e.g. the https://jedi.ripe.net/latest/AT/geopath/geopath.v4.json is returning 404 (and all other json data paths) so the plots aren't loading. Just thought to bring it to your attention because these data are very useful. Best, Vasilis Giotsas

BIG Atlas UI update for 2025-11-06
by Stephen Suess 06 Nov '25

06 Nov '25

Hello Atlas friends, We have just released a pretty big update to the Atlas frontend, with lots of new features. Here are some of them: Probe Connectivity use case - Visualise Internet connectivity by analyzing RIPE Atlas probe connection states over time. This tool helps identify potential outages and connectivity issues across different networks and regions. Here is an example link showing a power outage in Chile earlier in the year: https://atlas.ripe.net/use-cases/probe-connectivity/?method=country&start=1… Khipu: export image and data - There is now an export button in the toolbar allowing you to export Khipu visualisations as pngs, and menu items for exporting your filtered or full measurement data source in either json or csv formats Khipu: multi term path filter - You can now use multiple terms in the path filter to further refine your path selection Khipu: country filter improvements - You can now filter by continent, search for a country, or invert your country selection Clone a measurement (from detail and listing pages) - You can now clone existing measurements (that are stopped and not system tagged) by clicking on a clone icon in the measurements listing page or next to the heading on any valid measurement detail page. This will open a new measurement form with all settings filled in except for timing. Measurement Form: duplicate definition - Within the measurement form itself, you can now duplicate a measurement definition to help copy similar configurations. Recheck DNS option (in measurement form and measurement detail manage tab) - This setting (on by default for periodic measurements that don't resolve on probe and are targeting a domain) will recheck the domain resolution every 24 hours and update the measurement. For the full list of what is new, has changed or been fixed, please see the release notes here: https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/releases/website_index/2025-11-06 We welcome your feedback, please let us know if you have any questions, comments, or encounter any issues in the new update. Kind regards, Stephen Atlas UI
