With your help, the RIPE NCC is building the largest Internet measurement network ever made. RIPE Atlas employs a global network of probes that measure Internet connectivity and reachability, providing an unprecedented understanding of the state of the Internet in real time.

Become a probe host
https://atlas.ripe.net/get-involved/

A probe host is any individual who plugs in a registered probe and, in doing so, becomes part of the RIPE Atlas network. Hosts do not have to be members of the RIPE NCC, but they will need to create a RIPE NCC Access account (if they don't already have one) in order to apply for a probe.

The RIPE NCC provides probes free of charge. Anyone interested in hosting a probe can apply online.

Hosts earn credits for the time their probes remain connected, and can redeem these credits for their own customised measurements using other probes throughout the entire RIPE Atlas network.

Bringing Out the Dead threads :D

Now got "Software" Probes for the g33kty.

Been running my hardware probe(id:20961) for past 5yr++ .

Example of my Custom Measurement triggered on all the SG probes "Traceroute measurement to 139.180.151.180"

Sad to see probes population is dropping in Singapore...

What is RIPE Atlas?
RIPE Atlas is the RIPE NCC’s main Internet data collection system. It is a global network of devices, called probes and anchors, that actively measure Internet connectivity. Anyone can access this data via Internet traffic maps, streaming data visualisations, and an API. RIPE Atlas users can also perform customised measurements to gain valuable data about their own networks.

Yeah, guess we are lucky that our v3 probe still alive&kicking from those USB-related issues :s13:

Is this security issue resolved ?

Well, its Reasonable assessment & containment :D :

Potential scenarios
There were a number of scenarios we took into account:

A single device is compromised: individuals who have physical access to the probe always have the means of disassembling or otherwise fiddling with it. This is an unavoidable fact of life, therefore our aim is to prevent this from affecting the rest of the network. So, when such events are detected, we separate the device in question from the network. Since each probe has a unique key, we can do this on a per probe granularity.

Don't mind the necro..

I noticed there are a few atlas probes hosted on Singtel fibre, but none are SingTel IPv6 enabled.

I think it'd be really helpful towards the community if @xiaofan can host one, and as an added bonus for your contribution, you earn credits that can be used to run measurements on other people's atlas probes too. :)

Here's the instructions to compile and install the software probe binary.
