The internet is a network of networks. The RIPE Atlas project provides a lens to view how the networks behave from various vantage points. Using the RIPE Atlas system, anyone can run internet measurements to troubleshoot, understand how the internet works and carry out research.

Internet measurements are important and userful for everybody and not limited to network engineers, developers, researchers etc.

This session is a talk by Philip Paeps, introducing participants to the Ripe Atlas probes, how to use them, and the community and ecosystem around monitoring networks that individuals can plug into.

This talk is a precursor to the hands-on workshop measuring the internet using RIPE Atlas by Swapneel Patnekar on 12 September. Details here: https://hasgeek.com/rootconf/measuring-the-internet-using-ripe-atlas/
