Dear colleagues, The DNS Monitoring Service (DNSMON) has been providing a comprehensive, objective and up-to-date overview of the quality of various global and regional DNS operators' services since 2003. As announced last year by Kaveh Ranjbar in the RIPE Labs article, "Future of RIPE NCC Technical Services", we are in the process of integrating DNSMON within RIPE Atlas, using RIPE Atlas anchors as vantage points. The beta version of the new DNSMON will be available next week, when we will invite you all to try the new service and provide your feedback. In the meantime, we wanted to let you know about some of the changes in the new DNSMON service: New interactive graphs that will allow you to zoom in on interesting details, such as servers, vantage points, and time intervals. Support of TCP queries. Data delay for non-DNSMON users will not be replicated because the measurements performed by RIPE Atlas anchors for the new DNSMON are public measurements. Therefore, the results will also be publicly available. Server-side generated RRD graphs will not be migrated, as the client-side visualisations provide a comparable replacement. However, the existing service will keep working in parallel and decommissioning plans will be discussed with the community. In the meantime, the graphs and data from the old system will still be available. We will publish a RIPE Labs article with more details when the new service becomes available next week. We’re confident the new DNSMON will continue to meet your needs and hope you'll be pleased with the new features. Please stay tuned for more information.
