[mat-wg] Unauthenticated user access to RIPE Atlas

Hello everybody!

I was wondering around what are the rules and views on “open user
access” to RIPE Atlas ( as in non-authenticated users being able to
make RIPE atlas measurements)

I ask because as of this morning I noticed that hurricane electric’s
bgp.he.net tool is now allowing users to make right atlas measurements
without any authentication to RIPE Atlas,  this was surprising to me
as when I asked a NCC staff member at the last meeting in Berlin about
doing something similar to this I was explicitly told that this would
not be desired.

I cannot remember who told me this ( and I don't have an easy way of
finding out again )  but assuming this is allowed I will happily copy
this for bgp.tools

But I'd like to check with Atlas people before doing such a thing.
