If i logon to my probe, it says “Abandoned “, what does that mean? What can i do to fix this?
Best regards Ben
There's a few states for probes, and "Abandoned" means it hasn't been connected in a while. You just need to turn it on again, and potentially fix any issues. "Connected" and "Disconnected" are self-explanatory, while "Written-off" means you've disabled the probe and do not plan to turn it on again. A good chunk of this is described in our docs: https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/faq/managing-your-probe?#my-probe-is-now-marked-... -- Regards, Trix Taiclet Embedded Systems Engineer @ RIPE Atlas RIPE NCC
