Test Traffic Measurements Service

For new users: What is this service?

What do you really know about the quality of your connectivity to the rest of the Internet? Can you effectively diagnose problems involving other networks? Can you detect long term trends in your external connectivity? The Test Traffic Measurement Service (TTM) will provide the answers for you.

TTM allows you to comprehensively and continuously monitor the connectivity of your network to other parts of the Internet. TTM provides your network operations center (NOC) with information to investigate problems and help prevent them in the future. TTM provides you with trend analysis, making it possible to address problems pre-emptively.

Measurements done by TTM include: one way delays between hosts (latency), packet losses, path information ("traceroute"), bandwidth, delay variation (jitter). Data is accessible in plots showing the results for the last days or months and in raw format.

TTM has been offered (since October 2000) by the RIPE NCC to the Internet community as a full service. The service is available to the community at large.
