====== RIPE Atlas probe ======

The RIPE Atlas probe is a small computer that [[lightning5:lightning5]] currently houses in the rack in W2, assigned [[https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/60215/|id #60215]] in RIPE's [[https://atlas.ripe.net/landing/about/|ATLAS network]].

RIPE Atlas is a network of probes all over the world, that can receive commands from RIPE NCC (or whoever else has an account and tasks them) and perform measurements about the Internet, mostly about DNS, ICMP (ping & traceroute), HTTP(S) and TLS.  Yes, this is basically a botnet, only for good and not evil ;)

If you have any questions or need RIPE Atlas credits to run some tests you can ask [[lightning5:lightning5]]. I'll be happy to help you and give credits (I get them for free for running the probe.)

There used to be a RIPE Atlas probe by [[memberpages:nicoo:nicoo]] but it has stopped working.
(I might have stolen some parts of Discription from him (:  )
