Hi Lukas, Internally we refer to these probes as not-reporting and I agree that a notification would be useful. These would then be sent if the probe: - does not have system-ipv4-works AND system-ipv6-works tags - does have a system-ipv4-doesnt-work OR system-ipv6-doesnt-work tag Question is if these emails should be send again after for instance 24 hours or a week or? As I am working on emails lately, I will add this notification to my list. Cheers, Johan On Mon, 25 Aug 2025 at 11:47, Lukas Tribus <lukas@ltri.eu> wrote:
Hello,
currently notifications are configurable for the event when a probe is disconnected; however when a probes remains connected but stops working (loosing or no having either system-ipv4-works and system-ipv6-works tags), we are blind.
I have written a monitor script to query the API for this, to get this notification but I'm wondering if it would be possible to implement this at RIPE. The system-<AF>-works tags are already there.
Software bugs and I guess HW issues can trigger hung probes that remain connected. It's hard to find out, unless one is specifically looking for it or specifically expecting the result of a single probe in a measurement.
