Hello Routing Working Group,

We are rescheduling the RWG February meeting to February 21^st, 8 am Eastern (1 pm UTC) to accommodate this talk from RIPE Atlas.

The agenda for the February Routing Working Group Meeting:

"Using RIPE Atlas to spot routing issues”

Speakers:

Michel Stam mstam@ripe.net

Michel Stam is a senior software engineer for the RIPE NCC’s Research and Development department. His primary focus is developing the firmware for probes connected to the RIPE Atlas platform, using his knowledge of networking and embedded software. Michel started working at the RIPE NCC in 2020. Michel has been working as a software developer and infrastructure architect for over 20 years. Prior to joining the RIPE NCC, he was an architect for an offshore company, defining the infrastructure for research vessels. Michel has written software for several embedded devices and networked equipment and is listed as an inventor for two patents.

In this talk, we will share how to use RIPE Atlas platform for free to detect routing issues. We will present such uses cases as:

• Spotting symmetrical and asymmetrical routing

• Using the probe tags to help you get the most out of your measurement

• Strategies for finding IPv4 / IPv6 path differences

RIPE Atlas is open and free for everyone. You just need to have credits to run your own measurements. You can get the credits by becoming a host, ambassador, or sponsor of RIPE Atlas.

Pre-requisite: It would be handy if you have a RIPE NCC SSO account already. You can redeem this voucher code “ROUTING23” worth 200K credits at: https://atlas.ripe.net/user/credits/

Thank you!
