Re: [request]: host a probe for v6 measurements

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?

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.

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)

<——------ 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.

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.

Thank you so much for helping us in our research activity.
