[atlas]Re: Can not target google.com with periodic measurement
Hi Robert, thanks for the clarification, now I know it is not a bug. With that said, I think this necessitates some form of house-keeping task seeing how long Atlas has been active. I looked at the 25 running measurements (attached), assuming [0] is the right request: - 23 ping measurements, 1 traceroute, 1 SSL - 7 are dead (-> /latest endpoint returns no results) - Average participant count of 5 probes - None have a scheduled stop time - The last one was started on 2023-01-11, so it was not possible to schedule measurements targeting google.com since then? I know the Atlas developers always have a lot on their plate, so I won't ask for anything, but maybe it would make sense to have a process that notifies users of long-running / infinite measurements that did not return results since x amount of time due to probes getting disconnected if they want to add new probes or cancel the measurement. And if they don't reply for y time, force cancel the measurement (or exclude them from the limit). Anyways, at least now it is clear to me what is happening, so thank you.

Hello All, I am Nishant, a PhD student at the University of California, Davis—apologies for spamming the mailing list. I am working on a measurement research project that requires longitudinal analysis of Internet exchange points which requires an active traceroute campaign that we plan to do via RIPE Atlas. I have some credits to start the measurement but, I would require around 50 million more credits to complete the measurements. Therefore, I am reaching out for help. It would be great if some of you could offer me some RIPE Atlas credits.

[atlas]Can not target google.com with periodic measurement
Hi, there seems to be something wrong (?) with the measurement creation process, or maybe some rules have changed? I'm trying to schedule a toy measurement to google.com, however, as soon as I set the timing to periodic, I get the error message: "We do not allow more than 25 concurrent measurements to the same target: google.com" I am not running any measurements at the moment. This behavior is independent of the measurement type (ping, traceroute, SSL) and the number of probes (error appears with one probe requested). It seems to solely be a problem of the timing. So far this message only appears for google.com and 8.8.8.8, other targets work. If I schedule the measurement in the future, I can actually submit it, but get a "Scheduling denied" measurement, for example: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/75418006/details I don't know if this is related, but it seems like somebody is hammering Atlas with a large number of geolocation measurements (500 probes per measurement) and DNS lookups (1 probe) at the moment. In the last hour 5582 measurements were scheduled, which is 1.5 measurements per second!

Re: [atlas] Atlas probes in non-production networks
Since we talk about usage of public service, I think that there is nothing to hide. Let me answer all questions. Problem refers to these PCCW AS3491 probes: 7007 7010 7032 7079 7080 7172 7198 1002754 1002771 1002785 1002844 1003737 1005609 They are are virtual anchor and software probes. PCCW has more probes but according to my data they are fine. Problem is observed for IPv6 routing. You can check built-in IPv6 traceroutes towards F root server. You can see that everything is routed into link between PCCW and HE AS6939 in Kuala Lumpur, MY. If you check PCCW routing towards F root server using their looking glass (so their production network) everything will look normal and won’t be routed via HE. As for now, these probes don’t have any tags or description that will allow you distinguish them from other, normal probes.

I discovered a disturbing practice how RIPE Atlas probes are used by at least one major provider which significantly impacts measurement results and interpretation of these results. I want to share it with you to open discuss about how to deal with such cases. I was doing traceroutes for one of Tier 1 provider which is very well covered by RIPE Atlas probes. I was surprised, that for some probes I got RTTs 100x worse than expected. After verification I discovered that routing for these probes is absurd and contact the provider to explain it. It turned out, that these probes are deployed in this part of their network that provide for some kind of internal service which is not provided for customers of this provider. In other words, these probes don't measure production network, but they measure some kind of hidden experimental network not available for the public.

Re: [atlas] IPv4 Built-ins fail while IPv6 work
HI, That might be it. There was no default route configured on my Edgerouter. I have now triied to configure one. At the moment netstat -rn does show a default route for IPv4. I have restarted the probe, I assume it may take a little time for the measurements to show results. What’s strange is is that it did work as a router for my home network. I think I forced the link to the ISP to be the route somehow.

[atlas] [ anchor] Quota on the usage of an anchor in measurement.
Hello. In my research, I am conducting multiple RTT measurements against different targets. During the measurement process, a single anchor stops getting scheduled for a requested measurement after some number of times or returns -1 as a result. I want to ask if there is a limit on how many times a single anchor can participate in a measurement. And what is its cooldown period if such a limit exists?

[atlas] repetitive 2fa authentication on every login
Hi team, https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/mine requires new login upon every browser open. It even requires 2FA every time. Is it possible to keep the session active for maybe a month, or at least do not ask 2FA every single time? I would think as services like gmail.com, portal.azure.com, account.synology.com, etc., do not require 2fa on every browser close and reopen, it may not be as crucial to perform 2fa every time I need to check if my probes are online? It becomes a bit annoying, especially me using mobile browser. Please consider. Thank you. Jiri -- ripe-atlas mailing list ripe-atlas@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/ripe-atlas

[atlas] How to be more helpful...
OK, here's my "problem." For starters I think the Atlas project is a great thing for the Internet, and I thank my local ISP, Comcast (USA), for encouraging me to sign up. But here's the thing for me. I have so many millions of points accumulated. When I see a message on this message list about someone asking for, say 20 million points, by the time I see that message, the requester has already received, typically, more than twice the number of points requested. (and I will say right now, private requests for points will be ignored) So my question becomes... I participate in this amazing project with a measurement device. But I also want to participate in the project by helping others, I guess I am asking, is there a way I can contribute points without having to check the list every hour or so? -- ripe-atlas mailing list ripe-atlas@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/ripe-atlas

Re: [atlas] random, but unique ASN probe selection
Hi Marco, let me plug a project of mine: https://ihr.iijlab.net/ihr/en-us/metis/selection you can enter the number of probes (aka unique ASes) you want to use in the form and then click on "Go". At the bottom of the page you will then find a JSON snippet which replaces the "probes" field of the API spec provided by the Atlas webinterface. This selection tries to prioritize ASes that are "far apart" from each other according to the distance metric in the form, so the order is not randomized, but depending on what you want to achieve might be random enough. If you want to do multiple iterations with a randomized AS set each time, I guess you will have to build this yourselfes. However, you could enter 4000 for the number of probes and the API spec will contain fields for all ASes with connected Atlas probes, which you could use as a starting point. Also note that you might not get the exact number of probes requested, since some ASes only have one probe and if it's overloaded it won't participate.

Hi Marco, I assume the pretty-printing part is simply not implemented for ICMPv6.

[atlas] Understanding participating probes and probe requests
Hi, I'm currently looking at measurement metadata and am a bit confused about the different ways of getting the number of probes participating in a measurement and the number of probes requested by the user. I'd like to know how to... 1. get the number of probes _currently_ participating in a measurement (for ongoing measurements) 2. the number of probes that participated when the measurement finished (for stopped measurements) 3. the number of probes a user requested over the lifetime of a measurement The default response to /measurements returns a participant_count and a probes_requested value. However, there are also the optional fields current_probes and participation_requests and these do not add up. For example, this [0][1] measurement (not mine) has a participant_count of 0 (showing as "Actually Participating: None") in the web interface, but one probe listed in current_probes, which shows up in the "Latest Results" list and is still performing measurements (at least while writing this). So it seems like the current_probes list is more accurate to get the number of probes _currently_ (or when the measurement finished) participating in a measurement? Similarly, there are 35 probes_requested, which equals the sum of "requested" probes from the participation_requests, however, some request are actually "remove" actions, which should not be included in this count? Any hints on how to interpret these fields? I think the requested probes and participation requests are more a problem for long-running measurements, but the participant count is sometimes weird for one-offs as well.

If you’re referring to what is the purpose of the platform, I can provide some feedback as someone who has experience in both industry and academia. Ripe Atlas is _fundamental_ to research. No other platform offers the same level of coverage in terms of diversity and number of vantage points, as well as real-time results. Plus, it's free of charge. Without it, many advancements in DNS, NTP, and routing wouldn't have been possible.

Hi, to my delight I discovered that there is now a "destination_ip_responded" field contained in traceroute measurement results. I often want to know this and had to handle it myself until now so I'm very happy that this seems to be a built-in field now. I only wonder if this is a feature to stay (since it's not in the documentation yet), and if it is server side, i.e., always available independent of the probe firmware?

Hi Barry, this function does indeed still work, but it appears that the web interface for it is somewhat broken? If I search for "traceroute" one of the results is measurement 1001589 [0], which has this term in the description, but searching for that measurement id gives no result. And in any case, the only available results seem to be very old looking at the ids. What _does_ work is using the measurement API, for example: "probes": [ { "type": "msm", "value": your_msm_id_here, "requested": number_of_probes_here } ] Not sure this is the answer you wanted to hear, but maybe someone from the Atlas development team can figure out what's up with the web interface.

[atlas] RIPE Anchor updates?
Hi folks, Proton hosts 3 RIPE Anchors (7120, 6847, 6854) and during routine vulnerability scanning we identified these appliances running nginx 1.20.1, which is potentially vulnerable to two CVEs (CVE-2022-41741 and CVE-2022-41742). Given the mp4 module pre-req, I doubt they are vulnerable in practice, but this highlighted that the nginx 1.20 train was deprecated 11 months ago, and 1.23/1.24 are the currently active releases. I note the last probe firmware update 5080 (which we run already) from Nov/22 disabled auto updates on the appliances, so I assume there will be regular updates coming from RIPE going forward instead?

Re: [atlas] Probe DHCPv6 support
Hi Michel, sorry, i don't have an OpenWrt device that's using DHCPv6 in client mode. But it should be easy. Make sure the 'odhcp6c' package is installed (which is the case by default). Then change the protocol option for the interface: /etc/config/network config interface 'eth0' option proto 'dhcpv6' Check out this link to see als available options for the DHCPv6 client mode: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/ipv6/configuration#protocol_dhcpv6 As far is i can see, you can only use OpenWrt in DHCPv4 client mode _OR_ in DHCPv6 client mode. So i guess, you have to write a small script. First try DHCPv6 and check if you can successfully get a configuration. If not, fall back to DHCPv4. Continuously toggle between DHCPv6 and DHCPv4 as long as you don't get a configuration. I would begin this loop with DHCPv6. Also keep in mind, that some DHCP server respond slow, so better wait a little bit, before switching the protocol. BR, Simon On 15.05.23 09:12, Michel Stam wrote: Hi, Good discussion!

Re: [atlas] Encouraging people to upgrade software probe versions
Hi Robert, The existence of software probes is great, but instead (or besides) of providing packages or source code, why not distribute a prebuild VM as OVF file? Advantages: - The RIPE Atlas team manages the whole OS, like it's doing for the hardware probes. Thus, updates can be deployed whenever needed. - You can even use OpenWRT as VM operatingsystem. This means all the same premises/conditions as for hardware probes. - an OVF file is easier to deploy, for the community - RXTXRPT switch is obsolete - No more false RXTXRPT data, since the report counts all traffic of the host, not only the traffic that is generated by the SW probe application. Is there an actual reason, why it was decided to let users manage the software probe installation? Please consider to distribute a prebuild VM *additionally* to the existing ways and see what happens. I'm sure, most new users will choose a prebuild VM.

Re: [atlas] V3 Probe: USB Flash Drive Filesystem Corrupted
Hi Michel, the Probe ID is 25993. There are so many cheap USB sticks with extremely low write speed, even USB 3.0 sticks. What made me think that the sticks speed could cause the tag is, that my probe had it tagged for a long time, but still the probe did it's job. It was online, delivering results, etc. I have replaced the broken USB stick with a fast one from Transcend 6 days ago. Since then, the tag did not appear again. I haven't checked for the blink patterns, sorry. If the Tag will appear again, i will try a different power supply and cable, as you suggested. BR, Simon On 11.01.23 12:39, Michel Stam wrote: Hi Simon, I would expect a more recent USB stick to complete a write / read operation more quickly than one of its older counterparts. Thats not a guarantee, I know. Funny enough, I actually used an old stick on one of my development V3 the other week and was surprised how slow the performance was (but the system did still work). When the V3 probes have issues, usually its either: * Power supply failing * Cabling failing * USB stick corrupt (unlikely after 3 units). Working setups sometimes degrade over time. Something I’ve seen with a USB analyser a good few years back is that some USB sticks don’t report write errors when the stick dies. I will dig a bit where the flash filesystem corrupted tag comes from and get back to you. Can you message me the probe ids that are causing issues? (Privately if you want to keep it off-list). And if you have the possibility, please humour me and try a completely different power supply and cable. It has resolved issues for me before. Just to get it out of the way.

Re: [atlas] Proposal: Add support for STARTTLS measurements [STARTTLS]
Hi Robert, i really appreciate the introduction of STARTTLS measurements! But if you do so, i strongly recommend to also introduce four new System Tags: IPv4 FCrDNS working IPv4 FCrDNS not working IPv6 FCrDNS working IPv6 FCrDNS not working A lot of mailservers will block or cancel inbound connections, if the sending server has no Forward-confirmed reverse DNS record. Some mailservers do this immediately, others do it at a later communication stage. So, when someone would create a new STARTTLS measurement, it would be a huge help to be able to only choose probes, which have FCrDNS. It shouldn't matter, if it's a simple or obfuscated DNS record. Please also take into consideration, to make FCrDNS mandatory for (new) anchors.

The whole point about ATLAS Probes is "RIPE NCC manages them" - as host of a handful of hardware probes, I have no say in whether I want them upgraded or not, or what they should do or not do. So I would expect all software probes to always upgrade themselves, and this be clearly communicated to SW probe hosts.

Re: [atlas] V3 Probe: USB Flash Drive Filesystem Corrupted
Hi Michel, Thanks for you answer. I'm using an Ikea KOPPLA (204.150.27) which provides 17W. It's powering two v3 probes and one v4 probe.

Re: [atlas] Low cost, low energy consumption probe
Hi Michel, For the $dayjob, I have access to today 13, soon even more locations with good (redundant) internet connectivity but very little compute hardware. To the extend that there is no hypervisor, however I personally really like the Atlas project. Will this add great value to the Atlas project, possibly not as the locations are kind a meh / non-exotic. So I perfectly understand me requesting a bunch of probes would be an issue. As such from personal pocket (depending on cost on the total #) I'm happy to source/buy a bunch of probes. For instance, if it would work, I would be happy to buy some TP-Link MR3020 (the V3 probe), which seems to be ±22 euro here, and some USB sticks (and POE to USB cables) and last enroll them into Atlas.

[atlas] Proposal: Measure well-known CDNs,[CDN-HTTP]
Hi RIPE Atlas users, I stumbled upon this thread and I wanted to chime in. I work for Cloudflare and we of course use a wide set of external visibility and performance management tools to track our visibility. But on occasions I also use the RIPE Atlas network to perform some specific reachability tests. I believe the distribution of probes and the fact that they're als in eyeball ASN is a really valuable factor that RIPE Atlas has. At the moment I'm running into a limitation around HTTP tests. I would like to use the RIPE Atlas network to curl some pages to retrieve and evaluate the HTTP headers. This is currently not possible with Atlas as it is only allowed to probe Anchors for safety reasons, which I fully understand and support (you don't want to turn Atlas into a botnet). The HTTP targets that I would like to probe would be all on our IP space, so I don't see a direct risk from the outbound part of the request. I can see there is some risk with the return part, where the content from an "unknown" system gets returned to a probe in someone's private network, with possible ramifications. So I was pondering about two possible options that can potentially help me, but not risk the Atlas project or demonstrate favoritism towards particular companies. 1) One of the options would be to open up some of our IP space to the probes for HTTP probes. 2) The other option would be for us to host an Anchor and put our CDN in front of it. That way RIPE has complete control over the returned data. I would love to hear the general consensus on such approach and the viability of it Best Regards, -- Dirk-Jan van Helmond On 17/12/2022 00:19, Barry Raveendran Greene wrote: > > >> On Dec 16, 2022, at 23:29, Stephane Bortzmeyer wrote: >> >> There is a larger problem here, a more strategic one: such a feature >> would contribute to the centralisation of the Internet, which is >> already too important.

Re: [atlas] Proposal: Remove support for non-public measurements [ONLY-PUBLIC]
Hello, I support Gert here, network operators (LIRs) can have valid reasons to make some their measurements non-public. So I don't support removal of this feature. It's a bad idea... If some probe host has problem with that, why don't mark such probes as not-available for private measurements (this can be implemented easily)? And I think there will be only minority of probes marked like that. Majority of hosts will not care at all... And keep in mind that Atlas is funded by LIRs and their money. All the big-data infrastructure (and also making of hardware probes) costs real (and not small) money. Existence of rivate measurements might be one reason, why LIRs allow spending money for this useful project. Probe hosting is only small piece in expenses within this project... - Daniel On 12/16/22 19:13, Gert Doering wrote: Hi, On Thu, Dec 15, 2022 at 10:41:42AM -0800, Steve Gibbard wrote: Atlas, and the RIPE NCC, have two fairly separate constituencies: researchers and operators.

Sorry Gert, but i strongly disagree. I might be troubleshooting something in our network where I have no interest in making the results public. RIPE Atlas is primarily designed for INTERnet measurements, not Intranet. To see, how things look like from other networks. If you want to troubleshoot something inside your own network and need privacy, you can do it the classic way, by using your internal test-equipment or monitoring. There's no "right to see all measurements" here I highly appreciate RIPE NCCs efforts for maximum transparency and open-data, and i hope this will never change. This is what Atlas was intended to be (as far as i can tell). if someone wants to see something, they are free to run their own measurements with their own credits. In this point, i disagree as well. It shouldn't be necessary to run the same measurement multiple times. For what reason? It would be a waste of credits, time and ressources. Also, keep in mind that this redundant data has to be stored somewhere. If one has a problem with open-data philosophy, he shouldn't participate in this project. _There's only one exception_ i could agree with: measurements can be private, if you only deploy your own probes/anchors for that measurement. But if you decide to use other peoples probes, the results should be public.

[atlas] redesign of the probe page
Hi Robert, here are some things that bothered me, when looking at the probe pages: 1. Network Tab: When a probe is connected via IPv4 and IPv6, the second IPv4 DNS resolver is not displayed on the probe page. If the Probe is connected via IPv4 only, both IPv4 resolvers are displayed. At least, that is what I have observed for my probes. 2. Network Tab: Connection Information: Instead of "Last Week" and "Last Month" it should be "Last 7 Days" and "Last 30 days". For example: in my understanding "last month" means time between 1. - 30. November since the current month is december. But the probe page counts the online-time of last 30 days. Maybe this is a regional thing... are there countries which differentiate between month and calendermonth? I would appreciate, if it would be X days instead of week and month, to avoid confusion. 3. General Tab: "Router Type" cannot be set for Anchors (at least for my two anchors). 4. Network Tab: Please take a look at these probes: https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/26320/#tab-network https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/1004823/#tab-network What is causing the probe page to display so much old IPv6 addresses? It doesn't matter of the probe is connected or not, this error can happen in both cases. I've opened a ticket for this two weeks ago (#536036), but got no response. 5. General Tab: Maybe provide a textfield where probe/anchor hosts can write some details. A description, public contact details or whatever.

[atlas] Proposal: Add support for STARTTLS measurements [STARTTLS]
Hello, As a security and privacy specialist, I am absolutely in favour of RIPE Atlas gaining the ability to detect and measure phenomena such as STARTTLS stripping, certificate replacement, etc. Cheers, Alex -- ripe-atlas mailing list ripe-atlas@ripe.net https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/ripe-atlas
Re: [atlas] Proposal: remove per-hop “late” packets from traceroute [LATE-PACKETS]
Hi Robert, I support this proposal. I only recently learned through side channels how to correctly interpret this field, as I apparently misunderstood the description in the documentation, so replacing it with a counter is a good idea in my opinion.

Re: [atlas] atlas related mails come 4 times
Hi Endre, looking at your E-Mail-Address I'd suspect some issue at the service providing the "rediremail.com" addresses. Can you look at the full headers of all emails and see if you can finde differences in mail routing? I never had any problems of that kind with this list, so I suspect the problem lies somewhere else.

Re: [atlas] Unknown probe in my account
Hi Giuseppe, Did you apply for another probe some time ago? If so, that's probably why you see a probe in your user profile, that you don't own (yet). If you did not apply for a new probe, be patient and wait for an answer from at...@ripe.net. Maybe it happened by accident.

Re: [atlas] What is the trick with "+Reuse a set from a measurement" ?????
Hi Barry, this function does indeed still work, but it appears that the web interface for it is somewhat broken? If I search for "traceroute" one of the results is measurement 1001589 [0], which has this term in the description, but searching for that measurement id gives no result. And in any case, the only available results seem to be very old looking at the ids. What _does_ work is using the measurement API, for example: "probes": [ { "type": "msm", "value": your_msm_id_here, "requested": number_of_probes_here } ] Not sure this is the answer you wanted to hear, but maybe someone from the Atlas development team can figure out what's up with the web interface.

Re: [atlas] RIPE Atlas SMTP Measurement
Hi Michel, Thanks for your feedback! Note: the SSL measurement currently does not use the OpenSSL library. Is that a reason to not use OpenSSL for SMTP measurements? Are there any reasons to not use OpenSSL? BR, Simon On 11.11.22 13:57, Michel Stam wrote: Hi Simon, This seems to have gotten a bit idle since RIPE85. Let me give a bit of an update: * Adding TLSv1.3 is gonna be tricky since the SSL measurement implements the first stages of the TLS handshake only. This means adding that complexity to the code, which as Niall commented to me is not trivial. Note: the SSL measurement currently does not use the OpenSSL library. * Other than retrieving the certificate from the peer, no other validation happens in the current SSL measurement. This includes not validating the certificate chain, which may be a self-signed certificate. * Adding STARTTLS the way OpenSSL has done it involves issuing the appropriate command after receiving certain output from the remote end, then starting the TLS handshake. This should be doable. Hope this helps, have a nice weekend!

I’ll also look at the existing SSL measurement to see what that offers. That will likely provide the best path forward. Lastly, I’ll have an internal discussion on measuring SMTP/STARTTLS/etc. Ripe 85 is up next week, I’ll be attending there, so my response may be delayed somewhat. Please bear with me. Regards, Michel On 16 Oct 2022, at 03:37, ripe@toppas.net wrote: Hi Michael, Both netcat and openssl wait for the 220 to continue. If a timeout would occur during the STARTTLS phase, or before the 220, would this differ from a conclusion perspective? In other words, is it necessary to test once for the 220 to appear (or a timeout), then another time to see if the STARTTLS completes? If you have a timeout while waiting for the initial 220 response (service ready), the service is not available. Maybe the SMTP daemon is not running or not answering for some reason, or there's a network issue. If a timeout occurs later during the STARTTLS phase, the server is available and also the underlying network connection seems to be fine. So yes, the conclusion would be a different. But we still don't have to run two separate tests, i think. Could this be folded into a single test that does a 220, then the STARTTLS and will report error when there’s a fail in the process? Yes. Since we do not really want to send an e-mail, we can probably use OpenSSL for everything in a single run. If you use the -debug parameter, you'll get *very* detailed output which contains all informations we want (except for response-times, i think). There might be a more elegant way to get a better-looking output from OpenSSL. But I don't know how, to be honest. I haven't read the whole man-page :) $ openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect mahimahi.ripe.net:25 <http://mahimahi.ripe.net:25/> -debug Most work is probably to study the OpenSSL documentation, to find out the different error messages we have to expect, depending on the problems we might face: - TCP handshake not successfull - Server does not reply with 220 (timeout) - Server does not reply with 220 (server replies with another 4xx or 5xx code) - Server is not ESMTP capable** - Connection successfull, but the server does not offer 250-STARTTLS (not supported or suppressed because of MITM attack) - 250-STARTTLS was offered, but establishing encryption was still not successful for some reason and maybe other typical certificate problems like: - certificate invalid (self-signed) - certificate invalid (expired) - certificate invalid (broken chain) ** SMTP Encryption is optional, but it is not supported by the original SMTP protocoll (RFC 821). To use STARTTLS, the mailserver has to support SMTP "Service Extensions" aka. ESMTP. ESMTP has been introduced 13 years later by RFC 1869. From a communication perspective, the main difference is, that the initiator of the SMTP connection (client) is using EHLO instead of HELO (EHLO = Enhanced HELO). If the server does support ESMTP, it will tell the client it's features. If the server does not support ESMTP, it will reply with an error. I don't know what the OpenSSL output looks like, if you try to connect to a server which does not support ESMTP. It will probably output some error message. This error should be evaluated by the Atlas SMTP measurement too. 99.9% of all mailservers nowadays should support ESMTP, but there might be some usecases... "special application blabla". It could be possible that someone would start a Atlas SMTP measurement for a non-ESMTP compliant target. That's why i am mention this.

[atlas] V4 probe looses connection
Hi, I have a probe (#53985, V4, fw: 5070) that goes offline after 1-2 days of uptime and does not recover unless rebooted. The probe responds to ping (even from a different subnet). Packet capture reveals that it renews its DHCP lease normally, but does not initiate any higher level connection. I will try to keep the probe online for a few days so that you can run some tests if you wish.
