Please disregard. The measurements eventually delivered at 2018-02-10, while measurement was created and all other probes delivered their results at 2018-02-07. Thats weird, but at eventually it works.

multiple measurements failed on probe 15861
by ripe＠brite.cz 09 Feb '18

09 Feb '18

Hi team, it seems traceroute measurements fail on Probe 15861: -following measurements created only for Probe 15861: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/11204846/ https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/11204847/ both ended up with "Failed" result -following measurements contain multiple probes together with Probe 15861, and whereas other probes give results as expected, for this probe the result show "No recent report available": https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/11194845/ https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/11194846/ Built-in measurements look fine though. Any idea? Am I doing something wrong? The probe is located at my home, connected to switch where all other devices work fine. Thank you Jiri

failing IPv6 ping to a.root-servers.net
by Wolfgang S Rupprecht 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

My probe #35105's builtin test "#2009 Ping to a.root-servers.net (2001:503:ba3e::2:30)" fail most of the time while IPv6 pings to other targets work just fine. From poking around other probes, this seems to be a common problem. I wonder if this is why my probe never keeps its "IPv6 Stable 1d" tag for long when it does eventually get it. The way I see it, that one failing test set puts the probe below the 95% working cutoff for IPv6. Are other people seeing the same failing ping6 to a.root-servers.net? 2018-01-25 12:33:27 UTC Probe auto-untagged Your probe #35105 was automatically untagged as "system: IPv6 Stable 1d" 2018-01-25 08:35:56 UTC Probe auto-tagged Your probe #35105 was automatically tagged as "system: IPv6 Stable 1d" -wolfgang

hi, I tried to monitor on of our services running on https://login.afterbuy.de. I configured an SSL check like (Meassure ID #11090260). All probes response with: Error: timeout reading hello But the service is online and reachable. SSLabs SSL check confirmed this. So can someone explain what the error message will tell me?

tag "system: IPv6 Works"
by Wolfgang S Rupprecht 29 Jan '18

29 Jan '18

I just joined the RIPE-Atlas fold with probe #35105 and am still learning the ropes. My public-facing internet servers are all IPv6-only. That means that the only meaningful measurements of my systems come from IPv6 capable probes. I was surprised to see that IPv4-only probes would be scheduled to send IPv6 pings, traceroutes, nslookups etc. Even when I added "system: IPv6 Works" to the include tags and "system: IPv6 Doesn't Work" to the exclude tags I still got some IPv4-only probes assigned. Are those tags for future use and not wired up yet? Are the IPv4-only probes I'm seeing in my test runs there because their status changed recently and previously they were IPv6 capable? -wolfgang

Connectivity Problems in China
by Klaus Darilion 27 Jan '18

27 Jan '18

Hi! I have probe #248 which was working fine for long time. Now I sent it to a friend in China. He connected it to his home DSL account but the probe is still disconnected. Are you aware of any firewall problems for probes in China? Should the be able to connect on a normal residental Internet access? Where does the probes tries to connect? (Hostname, IP) so I can try to telnet the IP:port from a normal PC. Thanks Klaus

Probe shown as offline although LEDs appear online
by Andre Heinrichs 25 Jan '18

25 Jan '18

Hi, My Probe #29384 has started being reported as offline although the LEDs show no problem. I’ve just tried switching to another USB stick without apparent success. The weird part is that the probe seems to not send any SOS requests as soon as it started running off the USB. I’m guessing that makes it offline. If I’m interpreting the connection & traffic graph correctly the probe is still able to return results. Any advice what I could do now would be appreciated. TIA, Andre Heinrichs

HTTP server configuration fix deployed to v3 anchors
by Stephen D. Strowes 22 Jan '18

22 Jan '18

Hi, Recently we identified a web server misconfiguration on our v3 anchors, such that those anchors would not respond as expected to requests with their IP literal in the URL. Requests to their FQDN worked as expected. In other words: * http://nl-ams-as3333-3.anchors.atlas.ripe.net:80/ would respond as expected, but * http://[2001:67c:2e8:3::c100:a4]:80/ would respond with a 404 status code. The configuration was fixed and deployed by around 0900UTC on 16 January, 2018. V3 anchors now respond correctly to requests issued with their IP literal in the URL. This affected HTTP measurements to v3 anchors as follows: * Before the fix was deployed, HTTP measurements to a v3 anchor with 'Resolve on probe' set to false will have used the IP literal, and thus logged a 404 status code. * HTTP measurements as above that were running when the fix was deployed will have started returning correct results part-way through their run. If the measurement is ongoing, no other action needs to be taken. * HTTP measurements with 'Resolve on probe' set to true always operated as expected. Cheers, Stephen Strowes RIPE NCC

Minor changes in the credits transactions API endpoint
by Viktor Naumov 17 Jan '18

17 Jan '18

Dear colleagues, We made some changes to the credits transactions API. The changes relate to the use of another storage back-end. * Transaction IDs are no longer used to retrieve the data. * There is no detail transaction endpoint anymore, all transactions are served as paged lists. * The main transaction endpoint remains /api/v2/credits/transactions/ Deprecated endpoints are as follows: * /api/v2/credits/transactions/<transaction_id> * /api/v2/credits/transactions/admin/<transaction_id> * /api/v2/credits/transactions/measurement/<transaction_id> * /api/v2/credits/transactions/probe/<transaction_id> The transactions endpoint reference is accessible at: https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/api/v2/reference/ Best regards, Viktor Naumov RIPE NCC

Probe and firewall settings?
by Tim Chown 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Hi, At https://atlas.ripe.net/about/faq/#so-which-services-do-i-need-for-my-probe-… it says "The absolute minimum set is DHCP, DNS and outgoing TCP port 443 (HTTPS) in order to allow the probe to connect to the network. However, this in itself is not enough to do measurements, which is the entire focus of RIPE Atlas, so you should also allow ICMP, UDP (DNS + traceroute), TCP for traceroute and HTTP(S)." What specific ports and protocols are required for routine operation and for inbound or outbound measurements to be configured? I think the above info could be a little more detailed (having had questions asked of me). Many thanks, Tim

beta status page vs. ipv6 only network
by Bjoern Buerger 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Hi, One of our probes has a warning "IPv4 Doesn't Work Properly" on the beta Status Page, along with a "IPv4 doesn't work" Tag on the main page. While this is technically correct, the cause is simple and nothing is broken. We just removed IPv4 from that specific network segment (because it's not needed anymore). Is it possible to somehow tag the probe as "single stack on purpose" in the configuration page? Thanks in advance, Bjørn

#6262 Disconnectted
by Stanish Stanishev 12 Jan '18

12 Jan '18

Hello, Yesterday i got a notification that one of the our Anchors - #6262 has disconnected from Atlas. According to its Current Status info - DNS Problem Suspected. I see the anchor is configured to use the following DNS Resolvers - 8.8.8.8 and 2620:74:1b::1:1. The anchor responds to pings and is reachable from the world. Also the resolvers 8.8.8.8 are 2620:74:1b::1:1 reachable from the anchor's uplink router. So apart from checking the anchor's connectivity and DNS resolvers I don't have much left to do in order to get the anchor connected again. Has anyone faced this situation before ?

Minor changes in the probe archive API
by Viktor Naumov 10 Jan '18

10 Jan '18

Dear colleagues, We made some changes to the probe archives API. The changes relate to the use of another storage back-end. In addition to the "date" URL argument, which returns the all probes dump for the given date, the new version enables ranges of dates to be specified for all or selected probes. The example below will return dumps for probes 1, 5, 81, 82, 83 for dates in the range [2018-01-03, 2018-01-06): https://atlas.ripe.net/api/v2/probes/archive?/api/v2/probes/archive?date__g… Best regards RIPE Atlas Team

Probe didn't get static IP address
by Walid Ben Ali 29 Dec '17

29 Dec '17

Dear ripe Atlas support, My probe ID 26099<https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/26099/> didn't reconize the static IP adress. Knowing that it worked for days. Today I just tried to know if it is a network problem or a probe issu, I just conenct it into DHCP and the probe works., I also pluged my Laptop to the netwok with the static IP address (in order to know if it is a network issu) and also the network ork perfectly, I even surfed on the RIPE NCC web site without any pb. So please RIPE Atlas support, could you bring me some help? I returned back the probe to the nework, the static specified IP is kept, (with the DNS and submask and so on), but the probe didn't work. Looking for your support Many thanks

Probe disconnects every 2 hours
by Daniel AJ Sokolov 21 Dec '17

21 Dec '17

Hello, the logs for my probe (version 1) show that is has been disconnecting very regularly every 2 hours. The uptimes are always +/- 1 hour 50 minutes, followed by a disconnect period of 5, 8, or 11 minutes. Out of my last 25 connects, 20 are like that. 3 have double the uptime (about 3 hours and 50 minutes), only one has almost 24 hours, and the current one is 6 hours and counting. The disconnects there were, again, 5, 8, or 11 minutes. However, I to not notice similar disconnects as a user of the same network. I sometimes listen to online streams for more then 2 hours without interruption. I work on my computer for more than 2 hours and don't notice these interruptions of my internet access. It's all IPv4; no IPv6 here. The controller is ctr-fnc01. What could be the cause of these log entries? BR Daniel AJ

Any recommendations on how I can get ATLAS admins to reset my two-step verification?
by Jan Galkowski 20 Dec '17

20 Dec '17

Hi I have an ATLAS probe, long connected with a lot of credits. I have a RIPE NCC account, where the email and passcode are both recognized. Unfortunately, I apparently also have two-step verification set up. I don't recall doing that, but, then, it's probably my memory is at fault. And I do not know where, if anywhere, I put the notes for the 32 bit "emergency" code. The guidance at the site is to reach out to the ATLAS administrations in this situation for, I presume a reset. I have looked for additional information, and opened tickets. Unfortunately, the link to the FAQ describing this security facility is "404", and the tickets have gone acknowledged by the ticketing system, but not responded to. My interest is keen, because I was hoping to get some measurements research done by the start of the New Year. Alas. I have things I can do towards this, but has anyone else been in a similar situation? Advice? Thanks very much, Merry Newtonmas, and best wishes for the New Year. - Jan Galkowski, Westwood, MA.

Problem with new Openipmap
by Klaus Darilion 06 Dec '17

06 Dec '17

Hi! I just noticed the new interface of Openipmap. Nice, but unfortunately not as useful as the old one: 1. clicking on the graph does not show the trace 2. it does not show 50 traces as the last one (I need plenty of traceroutes for network optimization, not only 10) 3. there should be a possibillity to mark a location as wrong. E.g. see https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/10418213/#!openipmap Openipmap display Warsaw as target where all this traces terminate in New York as this IP address is an Anycast IP address and therefore it must no be mapped to a single location. hence, for Anycast IPs there should be feature to mark the IP as Anycast. Then the final target is usually the location of the IP address before. regards Klaus
