New on RIPE Labs: RIPE Atlas Probes: Delays in Distribution
Dear colleagues, The good news: RIPE Atlas is growing both in terms of geographical diversity and ASN coverage. What's more, RIPE Atlas is evolving, with a new generation of probe hardware having already passed the test phase and a pilot programme underway to assess the viability of VM anchors. The not so good news: With RIPE Atlas so much in demand, and with our current provider having ceased manufacturing the probe hardware, we've had to dramatically reduce the number of probes we're distributing. Please find more details on RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/alun_davies/ripe-atlas-probes-delays-in-distri... Kind regards, Mirjam Kühne RIPE NCC
Any updates regarding v4, in terms of what the hardware is etc.? On Thu, Mar 29, 2018 at 5:58 PM Mirjam Kuehne <mir@ripe.net> wrote:

Hello, We use the NanoPi NEO Plus2 as the v4 probe: https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=196 The firmware on it is essentially the same as on the older, v3 probes. Regards, Robert
Interesting. This seems like a much higher power device. What are the actual power requirements? So far my probe has been powered from the USB port on the router, and I’m concerned that this may make the installation of future probes more difficult.

The power requirements are quite reasonable when used as an Atlas probe. There should be no problem powering a v4 probe from a USB port. Philip
Hello, are there any plans for the Future to exchange the existing V3 probes with V4 probes? Best regards Michael Mirjam Kuehne <mir@ripe.net> schrieb am Do. 29. März 2018 um 16:58:
