Dear colleagues,

HTTP measurements from RIPE Atlas probes are only possible towards RIPE
Atlas anchors. However, when it comes to measuring the connectivity and
latency of web servers on the network level, an alternative exists,
which we call TCP Ping: a traceroute with special options that mimic the
TCP handshake that takes place when an HTTP connection is established.
In this RIPE Labs article we compare the results of large scale HTTP and
TCP Ping measurements:

Kind regards,
