FYI. tetaneutral.net participe au RING et au programme
RIPE Atlas (avec une sonde a Myrys et une sonde
sur une ADSL adherent).

Sincèrement,

Dear RING users,



I am happy to announce the next step in cooperation between RIPE Atlas
and RING: since few days ago, RIPE Atlas users can create measurements
with a RING node as a destination! 

RIPE NCC's goal was to provide lots of stable and willing targets to
RIPE Atlas users, in addition to our own RIPE Atlas anchors. RING nodes
are valuable to us because of the RING worldwide coverage, while RIPE
NCC service region is already mostly covered with RIPE Atlas anchors. 

Currently, the features available are:
- RIPE Atlas users can select a RING node as a "target" for customized
measurement (UDM) 
- all the RING nodes we use are shown on the map & listed here:
https://atlas.ripe.net/targets/ringnodes/map

https://atlas.ripe.net/targets/ringnodes/listing

- limitation: we only use those RING nodes that support both IPv6 and
IPv4

You can read more about other new RIPE Atlas features here:

If you are already using RIPE Atlas, we would like to get your feedback
on this new feature, either to "atlas at ripe.net" or on the mailing list:
ripe-atlas at ripe.net

If you are interested in hosting a probe, or to see more results, please

Kind regards,
Vesna
