[atlas] anchor disk recovery
Hi, after a power outage, our anchor got its grub.cfg file corrupted. I managed to use a .rpmsave boot.cfg that was present on the disk and boot into the recovery kernel. >From here the anchor is alive again on the management interface at https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/7000/ but I guess it's still in a unstable state. What is the procedure to actually repair the installation ? Should I re-install it from the USB image, or is there something else I can do remotely ? x -- Matthieu Herrb
[atlas] anchor on a /32 network with on-link routing ?
Hi, here at Tetaneutral.net we purchased an anchor with the idea to host it in our network. For IPv4 We are using /32 addresses everywhere, and do the routing by setting the 'on-link' flag on the default route. This configuration doesn't seem to be possible through the management interface. It complains that the gateway is not no the same network as the host and provides no way (as far as I can tell) to setup the 'on-link' flag. Apart from inserting another router in front of our anchor to let it use a narrower prefix, is there a way to set it up ? Or can this be considered for the future evolutions of the anchor software ? Thanks in advance. -- Matthieu Herrb
[atlas] half dead v1 probe ?
Hi, Here at Tetaneutral.net we're hosting a V1 Atlas probe since 2012 or so. A few weeks ago it started beeing marked as unconnected on the ripe atlas page : https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/523/ Since it's a v1 probe, I can only power cycle it to try to reconnect it, which I've done a number of times now, without success. It's still answering to ping requests, both on its v4 and v6 addresses and I can see some traceroute-like trafic going out of it. It's marked as "firewall problems suspected", but we don't do any firewalling on it. On IPv4 it's on a 1:1 NAT, all ports are open and forwarded in both directions, and on V6 it's routed without any filtering. Also we haven't changed anything on our infrastructure around the time it became disconnected. I'm starting to suspect a firmware upgrade problem as the one mentionned by Alun Davis in https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-atlas/2017-June/003329.html Any suggestion before I send it back and ask for a new one ? Thanks in advance, -- Matthieu Herrb
