Thanks for the information. It seems to me that the comparison on failures between TCP and UDP make no sense at this moment.

This affects all ongoing and one-off measurements. The issue also affected DNSMON measurements between 14-23 March. On 23 March we deployed a corrected firmware on RIPE Atlas anchors (version 4770), and in the near future we'll deploy it on regular probes as well. Our excuses for the inconvenience caused! So any probe that is still on version 4760 will provide timeouts for TCP DNS lookups.

I found the timeout and failures of TCP is far more than UDP. For example : DNS over TCP: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/8552847/#!probes DNS over UDP: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/8552846/#!probes Is it normal ? I mean is there any special timeout routine/parameters of atlas probes from normal resolver? Best regards, Davey
