[request]: host a probe for v6 measurements
Dear NANOG, We are currently looking for volunteers in US with native IPv6 lines to help us in our v6 measurement research. <——------ Background We are interested in measuring IPv6 performance from home. As part of the LEONE project [1], we have developed measurement tests that compare performance over IPv4 and IPv6 to: a) Dual-stacked websites and b) YouTube content delivery network (in collaboration with Aalto University). The tests comes bundled with a LEONE SamKnows probe. [1] http://www.leone-project.eu We currently have ~25 Vantage points (VP). Each VP runs a Leone SamKnows probe. The google map [2] shows where these probes are deployed. As you can see the VP sample is too small (nothing in North America) [2] http://goo.gl/TL4woP <——------ Request: If you receive native IPv6 at home (or know someone who does), it would be great if you can host a LEONE SamKnows probe for us. The probe will run standard SamKnows tests [3] and our IPv6 tests. [3] https://www.samknows.com/tests-and-metrics We prefer measuring from home networks, but are also open to deploying probes within research/academic networks, business lines, or operators labs. <-------- Action: Let me know if you’re interested, and I can share details on how to get the probe to you. We only have limited number of LEONE SamKnows probes. We will process the requests on first come first serve basis. <-------- Research Impact. a) Measuring YouTube from Dual-Stacked Hosts Saba Ahsan, Vaibhav Bajpai, Jörg Ott, Jürgen Schönwälder Passive and Active Measurement Conference (PAM 2015), New York, March 2015. b) Measuring TCP Connection Establishment Times of Dual-Stacked Web Services Vaibhav Bajpai, Jürgen Schönwälder 9th International Conference on Network and Service Management, (CNSM 2013) Zürich, October 2013. 8<——-- Thanks.

We've seen 3 or 4 recent presentations of some new measurement project that requires deploying yet another set of dedicated probes. While I'm generally supportive of measurement attempts, I'll ask the same question that was asked then: Why not use RIPE Atlas? https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/udm/ Wes George On 1/19/15, 8:33 AM, "Bajpai, Vaibhav" <v.bajpai@jacobs-university.de> wrote:

Why not use RIPE Atlas? https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/udm/
usually it is because you can not put your own code in it for the measures you want to make. randy

The probes we are shipping are ‘SamKnows' probes. We are not forking a new measurement platform. These probes will be part of SamKnows. I called them LEONE SamKnows probes because in addition to standard SamKnows tests they are also going to run our v6 tests.
Why not use RIPE Atlas? https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/udm
As Randy pointed out, the current built-in set of RIPE Atlas measurement tools do not allow us to make measurements we want to make. We want to measure connect times and achievable throughput over an established TCP connection to live dual-stacked websites and YouTube CDNs. This requires additional tests to be baked in the platform. In efforts to get this accepted, I presented one of ours tests at the RIPE66 meeting in 2013 and received positive feedback [1]. We are working with them to get things accepted. [2] Measuring the Effectiveness of Happy Eyeballs IPv6 Working Group, RIPE66 Dublin, May 2013. https://ripe66.ripe.net/archives/video/1208

Thanks to you, we have shipped 15 probes to North America (some of which are already starting to come up online). Here [1] is the current situation of our SamKnows deployment. [1] http://goo.gl/E1DIZr We still have probes that we can ship out. If you happen to receive native v6 connectivity (residential or otherwise) irrespective of your location and would like to help us out, get in touch with us. Thank you so much!
