[atlas]DHCP behaviour of the probe on startup
by Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

Hi folks, while debugging some non-probe-related issues here at my ADSL'd net @home, I was told by the provider's techie, that the probe tries to grab *two* addresses at startup. He was monitoring the ARP table in the router, saw a DHCP request and the address assigned by the DHCP Server, and immediately asfterwards, the probe sent a request for an additional address, which was granted by the server. Trying to verify that, I later found out that I can ping the probe only on the second address. [1] Has anyone seen such a behaviour? Unfortunately, I don't have access to the router (cisco 800 series) as it is fully managed by the ISP, and for my other probe we had the IP-Address hard-wired into the DHCP server for the MAC address. Thanks, Wilfried. [1] this is particularly nasty for home networks with a very small number of addresses available (a bock of 8 in may case) and a long timeout...

[atlas]how big is the limitation imposed by the req. for DHCPv4?
by Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

Folks, I'd like to collect input from those interested in principle to deploy groups of probes within their operational environment(s), regarding the requirement to have DHCPv4 available in order to configure the probe (for IPv4). I already came up with a coupe of locations and environments, where such a cute thing would be nice to have, but in most (if not all) of these places, there is no DHCP available (and for good reasons). As an aside to the developers, would it be feasable to connect the probe in network A, configure it for the destination network and then move it over to network B for its happy life? Cheers, Wilfried.

[atlas]Question about security?
by Marco Davids (SIDN) 17 Dec '10

17 Dec '10

Hi, So how does security on the Atlas portal work? Reason for asking is that I changed the password from home yesterday, but when i logged in from work this morning, i was not asked for the new password. Maybe some kind of sessionid cookie with a long expiry time? Is that safe enough? Regards, -- Marco

Question: Do the Atlas probes support RFC5006 (RDNSS option)? If not, would that be an idea to implement? Regards, -- Marco

[atlas]option ntp-servers ?
by Marco Davids (SIDN) 09 Dec '10

09 Dec '10

Hi, Question: does the Atlas-probe obey to the 'option ntp-servers' DHCP option? If not, mine could be into trouble, since I don't allow outbound NTP-requests. (Sorry if this has been asked before, I am new to this list and haven't found the archive just yet) Regards, -- Marco

[atlas]IPv4 and IPv6 to the same machine(s)...
by Wilfried Woeber, UniVie/ACOnet 07 Dec '10

07 Dec '10

How much effort would it be to add a test and the graph to labs.ripe.net on IPv6? Just checked, it still has an IPv6 address. Btw, Mirjam (on bcc:), the new Labs site does no longer show the address for the incoming connection. Could this be re-instated, please? If possible it should go to somewhere in the header, like next to the login-name... On a more general aspect, I am looking for a good idea to present the measurement data for the same machine(s) for v4 and v6 either in the same graph "on top of each other" or "next to each other"... This could easily evolve into a graphical v6-sanity-check vehicle :-) Wilfried.
