Hi, Thank you for the quick replies. Sorry for not being clear enough: I need it to have an API so I can integrate it with my own solution, generate my own metrics. So looking glasses are pretty much useless: they don't support HTTP GET and DNS lookup (usually) and the parsing for so many different HTML or telnet sources would be very time consuming. Also I've seen many looking glasses with captchas to halt these intents. So I need a SaaS with an API for these tests. About RIPE ATLAS, I already have one of their boxes and it never worked. Simply doesn't appear as online. Their support just barely gave me some tips but with no meaningful result. I need something reliable and I'm willing to pay for this service. RIPE Atlas falls in the category of 'best effort'. Best regards, Kurt Kraut 2015-11-18 14:32 GMT-02:00 William Herrin <bill () herrin us>:

I need to be able to perform this tests remotely, frommultipleendpoints.For common tests like ping and traceroute, google "ip looking glass". There are a lot of them in a lot of locations, all free to use. -Bill -- William Herrin ................ herrin () dirtside com bill () herrin us Owner, Dirtside Systems .........
