It'd be pretty difficult to administer quotas per target. Instead, our line of thinking at the moment is: * to separate the one-offs from the ongoing measurements; ie. there should be X one-off and X ongoing slots. This would allow users to do ad-hoc measurements even if the destination is otherwise well-measured * to switch to a model where we calculate the expected load on the target, like probes*frequency/time_interval, instead of pure number of measurements (which can have 1..10..100.1000 probes). In this model one could start a new measurement against a target even if there are a 1000 running already, as long as those measurements are not too heavy
I think both models are useful :-) - one-off and ongoing to have separate quotas, and changing the actual quota calculation to some (obviously arbitrary) "packets per minute" number or such. Higher ppm values for well-known targets, like "all anchors", that signal their willingness to receive packets. Gert -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...? SpaceNet AG Vorstand: Sebastian v.
