No there haven't been any software updates for a very long time. For
this reason they should be considered obsolete. However, we currently
still support them, and we will try to release new firmware if there is
a security issue.

It seems that v1 and v2 probes are now starting to die faster. I have no
 idea what part is wearing out.

Unfortuantely, due to corona, we are out of v4 probes. So the best thing
to do at the moment is to replace dead v1/v2 probes with software probes.

as you mention it, one of my v1 probes died on sunday:


Your probe 127 has been disconnected from the RIPE Atlas infrastructure since 
2020-05-31 21:55:58 UTC.


Did this coincide with a software update or something on the control side?

My v1 probe is working fine.

My v3 probe unfortunately is not.
IPv4 was out for some weeks (IPv6 working fine), but i fixed it yesterday
(changed the usb stick).
It's now reachable over IPv4 (ICMP) but somehow it can't register itself...

Regards,
Carlos

My v1 probe died a few months ago and the ripe team replaced it with a
current one. I guess the v1s are ageing out.

Seems that your probe eventually got to its Roy Batty moment then:

Then it's maybe just old age (and the location is not particularily
well air-conditioned)...

[atlas] dead v1 probe

2020-06-02 Thread Gert Doering
Hi,

have there been software updates for v1 probes recently?  I've heard
about a few v1 probes that have died "just last week" - mine among
them (#461), fell off the net with "Firewall Problems Suspected",
but it's no longer even ARPing properly (= either it totally lost
its config and wants DHCP now, which there isn't in this network,
or it just died)...

So knowing whether this is a more widespread issue and possible reasons
would help me to decide how much effort to invest in debugging this.

I was working on removing busybox code that is not used by the Atlas
measurement code. That makes it unnecessary to patch the busybox code.

Replacing an stime call directly with clock_settime is not going to work
(that code never runs on software probes, so I understand why it works
for you). I'll work on a better patch. In any case, thanks.
